I too, does not find the quality of this fdn impressive. Due to the raves I just bought the product instead of asking for a sample. The colour #8 beige is a tad darker for my NC 30 skin, but...

Ug! This has to be the worst dept store makeup ever! First, the pump does not work after pumping patiently for 5 minutes! Went back and tried again another 3 minutes. Nothing. Then the product...

I like this makeup, but I was hoping for a more "luminescent" quality I guess. It does cover well and stands up to my oily skin pretty well also. It has a very different "tint" to it - much...

I really like this. I've come to the realization that no foundation is going to be perfect because I don't have perfect skin to go underneath it but this is probably the best I've tried in a...

This foundation is amazing! It has very natural looking buildable, medium to full coverage. I can't believe that I got such flawless coverage without that creepy mask look or the wax doll look. I...

I LOVE this foundation and it makes my skin look better than it has in years. However, the packaging is awful. I had to exchange it three times before I got one with a pump that worked. ...

I recently decided to switch over to more "green" products in my cosmetics regimen, and this is the foundation I chose. I must say it is fabulous. It really does reduce the wrinkles on your skin,...

I've used this TWICE and I can already tell it is love, HG style. A slight background: my face is extremely acne-prone, but this winter and RAM has made it very flakey and dry, although the grease...
