After reading all the wonderful reviews here, I had to get my own custome blended foundation. I think the key point here is you need to 1. have a very experienced MA (mine has 7 years experience as an...Read more

I really didn't like this foundation. The color is a good match (it should be after two tries) but I asked for full coverage, and the coverage that I got is medium at best. It also rubs off very easi...Read more

Have to change my rating as this formula aggravates my rosacea. Actually wrote to the company and asked for the ingred list to investigate if or why this foundation was causing a reaction. After a loo...Read more

This is a good deal. It is $62, but you don't have to use much, so it goes a long way. You also get a travel-size bottle to go with it. How much better can you do than a color made just for you? T...Read more

When this works it's awesome! The key to a successful custom blend is communication with the SA. I had several attempts before mine mixed up a blend I was happy with. They should send you away with a ...Read more
