    I really like this foundation. It gives a very natural finish. It doesn't make me break out or make my face oily. It's very easy to build coverage. However, if you're looking for a foundation with...

    Meh...this stuff worked ok for me. I think it would work better for people who don't have acne. It evens out skin tone just fine, but didn't do much to cover up my blemishes or the red marks that...
