I am glad I failed to view the reviews of this foundation or I wouldn't of made the purchase. I was surprised to find a very low rating. It's true the color selection is poor. However, the...

The coverage is medium, best applied with your fingers or a sponge. Looks streaky with a brush. Creases in my eye wrinkles, but you dont have to apply it there. As with all physicians formula...

I bought this at Loblaws for half-price. I really liked this product! It didnt make my skin look orange or greasy, but that probably due to my combination-dry skin. This product gave me a nice...

Do not buy the shade "light" if you are fair skinned (for reference I would be an nc10 in mac) because this thing is orange. Like legit, straight up orange! Also the shade would be closer to nc20,...

I wish I could leave no lippies for this. I'm fair-skinned and I got this in light. The texture wasn't bad, but it did not blend well. It was really streaky, but at least the coverage was kind of...

This sucked. I wore it to work once (barmaid) and had to reapply it so much I literally hit the pan after one shift. It has very sheer coverage and an oily finish. With or without primer, for me,...
