    I wasn't impressed with this at all. Magnified my pores instead of hiding them, generally turned a bit orange on me and, to top it off, made my face itchy! Luckily I just sampled it at the...

    This is my go-to foundation. I have very acne-prone skin and scarring, but I don't feel that I need a complete full coverage, so this product is nice for everyday use. I apply the foundation first,...
