I like this base so much. It's a very great quality. I can use as foundation,too not only base. And it give me a healthy look. Look real, not look fake and easy to rinse off.

I really hate that Aveda has decided to discontinue this product. It is my HG foundation. It moisturizes, covers well, long wearing and does not wear off easily (does not get on my clothes). The...

This foundation smells divine, makes my fair skin look healthy, glowing and natural. Great if you have sensitive or combination/dry skin types. Goes on well, but probably works best with a little...

I used to really like this foundation before I discovered Armani. I used Sand which was a bit too yellow for me (Armani #2).

I was first introduced to this product at an Aveda salon during my "trial run" make-up session for my wedding. The color was very natural looking and it matched my fair skin tone perfectly (I use...

This is one of the first foundations I've ever tried, and I'm pretty happy with it... Too bad it's discontinued! The coverage is nice (but not enough for my acne scars), "Wheat" is a good colour...

This foundation and I really clicked. I find it easy to apply and the shade I use really matches my skin tone. Good for light use as a concealer or for a more made-up look.

I used this foundation for years after my Aveda hairstylist sampled it on my skin and I loved the difference it made in my complexion tone. Yet, every now and then I got comments about how oily my...

I normally use a loose powder without putting any liquid foundation underneath but use this for occasions where wearing makeup is necessary. I love the way this foundation feels on my oily skin -...

After reading some of the other reviews about this product and since I desperately needed a new foundation I decided to give Aveda Base + Balance a try. I have extremely dry skin so I was looking...

I was constantly blotting my skin because this made my skin extremely oily. It looked good when I would first apply it, but after time my face was shining and I felt like I wanted to wash it off.

Nice dewy finish foundation. I like how Aveda uses natural colorants in their makeup. It didn't cover blemishes well so I needed a bit of concealer. I wear concealer anyways soI don't really mind....

I love this foundation. It smells like rose petals and leaves my face covered but not weighed down. I've used it for years and won't change.

First of all, let me say I love the colour Vanilla in this product. It's the best match for my skin tone I've ever found. However, the formulation just doesn't work with my acne-prone combination...
