I was so looking forward to getting it, even more so because it's expensive and somewhat hard to get. I ended up buying it from someone who didn't get on with it off ebay. I'm a bit on the fence...

I was so excited to try this after reading all the rave reviews about it, especially as it's not readily available in the UK so I had to wait until I was in the US to purchase it. But I'm sad to...

I definitely recommend this foundation! It is absolutely medium to full coverage. I have moderate acne and quite a bit of redness and this covers it right up. Unless I'm breaking out badly, I...

This upset me because the finish it gave on my chin/ cheeks was gorgeous but it was EXTREMELY cakey on my forehead. I'm guessing its because its oily and that tends to happen, but with this...

I have mixed feelings about this product. I do think it has good coverage and it can be build-able, but it made my face look so powdery and cakey. I have normal to dry skin. So maybe that is why?...

Very disappointed in this because the name markets this powder as FULL COVERAGE. It's light coverage and buildable to a medium coverage. Which wouldn't even bother me EXCEPT the fact that all the...

I will say that I have never gotten full coverage with this foundation. And I don't think I ever will without caving and buying the airbuki. Its probably because you're supposed to pack a whole...
