I have dry skin and love this foundation. The coverage is buildable. If you have oily skin steer away. Try lasting foundation by Merle Norman.

This is obviously a great foundation for some skin types but not for mine. I have mature dry skin and this foundation is so obvious on me. Even a small amount looks like I've caked it on. It also...

I have to go against trend here and say this foundation does not work for me at all. And it's a fairly expensive failure at $34. I think for a young woman with very smooth skin it would be perfect...

I will agree that this foundation has great coverage. However, it melted off and had no staying power for my skin.
