The foundation feels very balmy and rich, which should suit the skin on a dry side best. I have combination skin prone to oiliness in the T-zone, and yet I absolutely love the product. It provides...

A true gem if you have dry flaky skin or at least a dry combo skin. I decided to purchase this foundation since MAC was having their 25% off sale and I have been so curious about this foundation...

I get super dry skin during the winter, and this foundation still managed to make me look super oily. It feels very heavy and gross on my skin, even when I sheer it out.

I quite enjoyed this product but I would only use it on days that I'm not going out long because it only lasts about 6 hrs on the face (I have combo-normal skin) until oil starts to break through....

As a foundation, I find this product to be kind of gross. That said, I am not a creme foundation type, so it may be lost on me as I prefer liquid foundation. I have found this to be a great creme...

This is quite possibly the worst foundation I've ever bought. It's trully, really awful. I have very oily acne prone skin and I am not sure why the SA thought this would be very appropriate for me,...

Not worth the $. For MAC, I was surprised. This is advertised as great for dry skin, and hydrating. NO. It's just average you can find the same cream to power foundation almost anywhere for a lot...
