    I'm going for a middle-of-the-road score for this one. It deserves a better score because it truly looks great on me. Nice coverage, nice finish, stays on, etc. But I am very, very allergic to...

    Luxiva Lasting Foundation is by far the best foundation on the market. I have used this foundation for 5 years and always wondered if it was as good as the other matte finished lasting foundations...

    The Merle Norman Luxiva is MN's recommended product for oily skin, but I must agree with another posting and say that it does not prevent my skin from looking like an oil slick! I blot after...

    This is a great foundation for oily, sensitive, acne prone skin. It has an amazing texture when you put it on, almost silky and dries quickly to a powder finish. I don't even have to use powder...

    I was introduced to this thanks to a wonderful MUAer. I agree with the past comments that it resembles Colorstay, but I find there's 1 difference-it does not smell nor feel like paint (I guess...

    This is my absolute favorite foundation. I've been using it for about 3 years now. The cream color matches my skin exactly and I'm a hard match! The color doesn't change during the day. It...

    Wanted to like this foundation especially after reading the positive reviews. It just looked so unnatural on my skin. Looked like I was wearing a mask. Just didn't work for my oily skin. I didn't...

    Great coverage and staying power. I got so many complements wearing it. It is a strange consistancy, making it a bit difficult to apply (best done with fingers). But perhaps too much staying...

    i think this is a pretty good foundation; the colors aren't great, but it goes on real creamy, almost powdery, and it feels like its not going to dry, but then in a minute or two, its totally dry,...

    This foundation needs to have a good moisturizer applied immediately before application, as it can be way too drying (for my mostly dry skin, anyway). Other than that, excellent full coverage and...

    I loved how this product didn't rub off at all! But, it has a masky/cakey feel and was hard to layer over to hide my acne scars. I use Ecru in the liquid spf foundation and ecru in this formula was...
