    I really don't like the packaging of this as I find it can be hard to get product out of the squeezy tube when there's not much left. The shade range us impressive but you can tell you have makeup...

    Very thick foundation with a matt finish. So it can be a bit "fake faced" if not applying carefully. Also it covers my skin in the way that I hardly feel my skin can breath.

    I am so in love with this foundation. Beautiful finish, buildable, huge colour range, no SPF, which is great if you are using it on photo shoots, I can only recommend it.

    The only good things about this foundation were the colours (only foundation that's matched me) and the fact that a small amount goes a long way. It has a greasy finish, clings to dry patches and...

    Even though the reviews are pretty much split down the middle, I decided to take a stab at it. I was buying sight-unseen as there's no Illamasqua stockists in my country, but didn't realise how...

    - good coverage - great shade selection especially for asian skin tone - covers acne marks well - can become quite cakey if not applied well - not good for oilly skin

    Illamasqua Skin Base is yet another hyped product that I still can't wrap my mind around why it's touted as being a-mazing. At this point, I'm beginning to believe companies pay beauty...

    This is a medium full coverage foundation and can look a little heavy if not carefully applied. The packaging is an odd shape - it's going to be hard to get the product out when it gets near the...

    I'll say upfront if you're looking for medium-full coverage or something very build-able, keep looking because this foundation is very light. At $50 a bottle I would have moved on because,...
