    I don't really get all the hype about this. It's supposed to be makeup with that "no makeup" look. This is for people with good skin. but it made my skin itchy sometimes. and for me it does not...

    I bought this product after hearing great things about it. However, I found that it made my skin REALLY oily. As soon as I put it on, I needed to blot with oil papers. It was bizarre.

    My beauty staple. Can't live without this in Medium Beige. I usually wear it light, but I like that I can build the coverage flawlessly if I desire.
