    Yuck! I looked orange! It was heavy alright, but looking like a clown isn't exactly what I had in mind. It comes in a measly three shades and an opaque tube so the color is deceiving. Greasy,...

    Great coverage, long-lasting. I wore this on my wedding day. A little too heavy for everyday use, though. Perfect for photos. (Update 12/24/2004: Too heavy for everyday use. Nowadays, I use it as a...

    Great coverage. I would've never discovered this w/o the help of this website. I didn't give this product max lippies because (1) there are only 4 colors to choose from at my local Filenes!, and...

    I love this foundation. A little goes a long way, so it's entirely possible to have the same tube for a year or so. I have combination skin which tends to get very oily in the summer, and this...

    I really like this foundation. It covers everything. If you have dry skin, then I suggest using a heavy moisturizer before applying. With a good moisturizer, goes on smoothly with just a small...

    Unfortunately, the lightest shade comes up somewhat orange on me which, of course, will accentuate flaws. I wasn't using it as an all-over foundation, but a concealer when I had no foundation on. ...

    HG concealer. Amazing. SO much better than Becca. It goes on easy, doesn't cake and comes in a hygenic tube. The only thing becca has on this is the color collection, which is kinda lacking on...

    I use this as a concealer and its wonderful for covering spots and dark circles! Was quite expensive in NZ though ($63). But I think it's worth the price!

    I gave this a 4 due to the low number of shade options. I wear medium deep (07) and it is really too dark on me, but the 06 is far too yellow/light! I wear it for its coverage. It makes skin...
