    Hands down, this is by far the best foundation I've ever used! I've bought this when it first hit the Sephora stores on its first day. I'm using the shade "32 Beige Light" and it is seriously the...

    I tried one of the cardboard mailer samples first, then I went to Sephora for a larger sample before I committed to the full-size. This is a great foundation! The color I was matched to (medium...

    This is a foundation that looks beautiful, sounds wonderful, and smells like the entire Macy's perfume section that a child just rampaged through. It's such a shame that it's so heavily scented, as...

    My 2nd most favorite brand, after the NARS Sheer Matte. I find that this looks best with the Benefit Porefessional Primer (As so does everything else) and it keeps y matte and shine free for...

    I adore this foundation. My skin is aging (mid-50's) but generally good and "normal". I wear either Bisque Light or Ivory Medium in this foundation. The coverage is sheer but THERE....it is that...

    Not good for dry or sensitive skin. Left flaky patches and coverage was uneven. No staying power either. Not worth the high cost.

    Really excellent light/medium buildable coverage. Admittedly a little expensive, but I picked this up in sephora because of the close color match to my skin. When you wear this, it looks like your...

    Like a lot of women, I use all kinds of foundations, high-end, drugstore, cream, liquid, etc. because if something works, regardless of price or package, it's worth purchasing. After reading and...

    I swear ( and I can) that the more high-end, overly priced foundations I try the more I am reassured that it's the drugstore brands that deliver the very best. I am sworn to Almay Clear Complexion...

    I was extremely hopeful for this foundation - unfortunately it just did not deliver. The coverage is definitely light and at my age I need a bit more. It only provided about 6 hours of coverage. I...
