I bought this about 2 weeks ago and so far I'm liking it... I was using Smashbox photo finish and between the 2 Mac is definitely the winner! The only downfall for me is the bottle doesn't have a...

I was hoping shade 1.5 might work with my cool-toned complexion, but it's just too yellow. It also may be a bit too dry. I'll have to stick to my EL Re-Nutriv Intensive Lifting Creme Foundation...

I've used this for a few months (not consistently), and I really don't find it to be a great product. I liked it way more at first. I think I got it in a 3 thinking that it would be dark enough....
