    I dont know if there is a better foundation for acne-prone skins than Shiseido Perfect Refining Foundation. This is the best I have ever seen. I really love it and if I cannot find better, I can...

    Another score at Canadian Winners. I certainly don't NEED another foundation, but when I came across this at Winners for $8.99, how could I pass it up? I believe this is now discontinued. This...

    Be wary of colour matching, I got matched to B20 and found it slightly too pink for me despite it being "beige" (am NC15 for ref), if I was to rebuy would get O10-20 if its more yellow based....
