    I can't live without this product! The coverage is longlasting and looks incredibly natural. I would recommend it to every woman.

    I found that the foundation powder kit was too expensive and caused multiple break-outs with each use. Also, because I travel a great deal and took the BE kit along, once the powder comes out of...

    I'm still on the fence about this one. The lightest color, Fair, which incidently, doesn't come in the starter kit, and had to be purchased separately (Grrrrr!), gives my skin a yellowish tint. ...

    Overrated! Overpriced! Leslie Blodgett must have some super resistant skin that doesn't react to this junk. Broke me out like crazy, enlarged my pores, and left me shiny all day. So not worth it....

    I was using "fair" as my concealer and "fairly light" as my foundation. When I first applied these products my skin looked very pretty, but within a hour I was shiny and some areas of my face...

    I bought this product because I was fascinated with the late night infomercials. I have very fair skin and the lightest shade of foundation was too dark for me. Also the concealer brush just...

    As a baby boomer I wanted a non-makeup look, so I bought everything. I tried it and it made my skin itch, plus no real coverage. The concealer brought attention to my lines (I think). The only...

    I liked this at first, but I realized that it just didn't match my skin. I tried mixing two shades, but it still didn't look right. Also it made my skin itch, and made it greasy. I just don't...
