I love this foundation. I think it's rich and flawless and absolutely wonderful!!! I've given up liquid foundations but this one is top notch if you have oily skin!

Great coverage. Stays on really well. Doesn't melt off my combo-oily skin. Wish it it had a pump on the bottle, would be more sanitary. Update 9/27/07- Worse breakout of my life from this crap....

I bought this soley based on the rave reviews. Fresh Ecru was a perfect match but within hours it turned orange on me. The following day I had little white pimples on my cheeks. I'm returning it.
