I'm not sure if i got the right color for my skin because it looks so pale for my skin! It is a great foundation and covers a lot of my acne redness and flaws but it doesn't really help my oiliness...

I got this as a sample after Flawless didn't work for me. I hate it. It was so drying in my cheek area but did provide good coverage in the oilier T-zone. I guess this is for oily skin not...

I have to say I love this product. For as long as I've been wearing make-up, I have never been able to find a foundation that in any way matched my skin color (I am Irish and extremly pale!) but I...

Initially great color until it completely morphed into a crazy orange midday-thanks to my compact there was color correction at hand. Awful staying power and light coverage that somehow...

I once used the Virtual Skin, loved it and had an exact color match. Every year my skin gets oilier (lucky me) so I tried the virtual matte. The SA said they had redone the colors and this color...

I used this foundation for nearly a year, until I got so pale that I couldn't find a match. You know that your pale when even px doesn't have a shade light enough for you. During the time I wore it...

I'm with BunniesKill on this! Fresh Vellum was my HG foundation in the old oil-free formulation. I'm pretty pale, so the colour was purrfect, flawless finish, etc. But then they bring out this new...

This has been a great foundation for me--but not for oil control, really. (I use a foundation primer for that.) I have very pale skin and Fresh Petal is a good match for my color. So many...

The foundation is okay, at best. I didn't care for the full coverage. Everyone with oily skin doesn't have a bunch of blemishes! When are cosmetics companies going to learn that?! In addition,...

Like many other reviewers, I've had a terrible time finding the right color foundation -- apparently cosmetics companies don't think it's humanly possible for someone to have skin as pale as mine....

Wonderful foundation for oily skin. Add the Virtual Matte powder and you have the perfect combination. A bit expensive but its worth it.

It was okay. It didn't control my oily t-zone and I had to blot several times a day. The coverage tended to look cakey. It seemed a little orange which surprised me because the sales associate...
