    I didn't have as many problems as other readers seem to, but my biggest disappointment was the colouring. Admittedly, I bought the starter pack and found that the Fairly Light just wasn't light...

    This product really bummed me out... I was so excited about trying it after seeing all the commercials; I really thought this product would make my (clear) skin look luminous and glowing. Minutes...

    Incredible disappointment. I bought a set (foundation in the lightest shade they have, Mineral Veil and Warmth) at Ulta and was anxious to give it a go. First off, it's crazy messy. Even when I...

    This looks very natural on, but does not completely cover freckles or age spots as suggested in the ads. I use it over Touche Eclat for my age spots. I find that it gives the appearance of a more...

    I did not want to try this. I thought-Powder, dry powder only on my face? After watching the infomercial for maybe the 10th time, and hearing them call it a "creamy consistensy" I wanted it. I was...

    I watched this product for months on the informercial and QVC - I finally decided to buy it - I was not impressed. It gave OK coverage, but it did not live up to the hype. I would not repurchase...

    Never again.. made me look older and settled in my fine lines. I think if you have flawless skin it might work for you. Looked like a dried out prune.

    I like how this makeup actually helps with pimples when I get them. However, the loose powder makes everything nuch messier than it should be. It's easy to spill, and simply gets everywhere. Also,...
