I think I've figured out the secret to application. Because of it's thick consistency, I squeeze out a pin-sized drop at a time and work on my face in sections (this is how I apply Illamasqua Rich...

Don't get this foundation! It is truly awful... it's called stay matte... yet, its not in the slightest. It looks too much like painted on skin and gives a very uneven coverage that is way to light...

Utter crap. Can't believe Rimmel actually made this, since I quite like some of their other products. Not at all as matte as it claims to be, yet somehow manages to look like poster paint on skin....

I quite like this foundation, especially the consistancy. I have very oily skin and it 'stayed matte' for about 3-4 hours which is okay I guess. I'm '200' soft beige, for reference I'm NC20. It...

If Makeup was like Photoshop, this foundation would be a 15% opacity layer. The color porcelain (lightest) has a tendency to turn orange and sorry Rimmel but it doesn't really "stay matte", it...

This foundation isn't bad at all in my opinion. It's easy to blend and it doesn't look cakey. Although there's only three shades, you can mix your powder foundation in every application to get the...

Unfortunately, this just did not work for me. The lightest shade is still too dark for me (and it oxidized almost immediately). Furthermore, it made me shiny within an hour and did nothing to...

This product works pretty well on my skin. While it sometimes does not go on evenly, I can get a nice even coat.

I don't think this is bad at all despite the low rating. It doesn't come out mate like a powder foundation which is understandable but I wouldn't say it gives a dewy finish. People might complain...

Putting in a new review for this, I apparently tried it in 2007 and HATED it. I guess times makes a difference, perhaps they changed the formula in that time or something. And of course realizing...

I thought this would be good - coverage wise and also for controlling oil. It is not good at all. Don't even bother buying this if you have oily skin. I got 300 natural beige and the colour is a...
