I got this in Sheer Ivory in a swap along with a variety of other foundations and decided to give this a try. I love it! Although the Ivory is a tad too yellow for me (I use topical retinoids,...

This is an excellent tinted moisturizer, just as good as the one from Laura Mercier, but much chaeper. Note that the packaging is a bit smaller as well. The Sheer Neutral is a bit yellow, but with...

The UV protection is excellent and the product is easy to blend and apply. HOWEVER.........the UV protection is the result of 5% titanium dioxide and 5% zinc oxide. There is no way that any...

This stuff is fabulous! I was worried that there wouldn't be a light enough shade for my very pale skin, but sheer fair blends perfectly and evens out any splotchiness. It is hard to find a sheer...

I get compliments on my skin when I wear this. It's light but enough to even out my skin tone. I never break out from wearing it, and it looks really natural on. You can layer on more for fuller...

Color too yellow; formula caused breakout. Returned for refund... Looking for a better color match and formula for my middle-aged, normal skin that is light/medium with pink/warm undertones.

I think its ok but it doesn't seem to actually improve appearance of my skin with it being so sheer and covers nothing at all

Love this!! I don't consider it to be a liquid foundation but a tinted moisturizer (I only wear a vitamin C serum under this). It's truly matte, and goes on beautifully. I used it everyday during...

I was disappointed in this product. I like the formula, I love the fact that it has SPF 20, but the colors just don't work for me. I have fair skin, and even the lightest shade was way too dark and...

Please note: this isn't a tinted moisturizer. It's a lightweight foundation, and I LOVE the SPF 20. If you're a MAC NC25, "Sheer Neutral" is the match. This foundation is SOOOO much better in...

I can honestly say that this is one of the worst foundation/TM's I have ever encountered. The colors are horrible. I tried the middle two shades and was met with a bizarre peachy-brown face, only...

I like this, and although I like a little bit more of a polished look along with more coverage, this makes a great summery out and about sheer tinting. Great full spectrum SPF coverage for those of...

Generally a decent tinted moisturizer that has a light, non greasy texture and spf 20. It is a little too sheer though and doesn't seem to cover much at all, which makes the color match unimportant...
