I gave it a 1, becuase it barely covered, and it made me feel very yucky and greasy..and it gave me blemishes. I'm fair skinned and got naked 03. My skin isn't that oily, but if I'm in a hot...

This is a decent basic foundation -but has a very chemically scent. On the upside, it's always cheap & has a shade that is a perfect match for me (Naked) but you really have to experiment w/ how...

I have been using this for three months, the longest ever I've spent on one foundation. I got it with a free powder (also great). SSC covers all of my acne marks, does not turn blotchy on my oily...

pros: yellow based (the only drugstore brand that is!), medium coverage, good for combination skin in the summer, layerable. <p> cons: chalky feel and look, excentuates existing acne, tendency to...

I wanted to like this foundation. I love Almay's Amazing Lasting, and I thought this would be a lighter, sheerer alternative. The color is fabulous (pale), but I really couldn't stand the "minty"...

This is one of the few drugstore foundations that I've ever liked. The coverage is sheer and light but still evens up my ruddy skin. It has a bit of an odd scent that fades once it's on your...

I tried this a while back in attempts to find something for my combination and sensitive skin. I should have known better to buy a foundation in a drugstore. It was a dry texture very hard to blend...

This foundation has its good points and bad points. IMHO Almay has the best foundation shades of any drugstore line, neutral and yellow-based. This one blends fairly well and has a smooth, matte...

Well, I had high hopes--but it actually caused me to get hives! I am sure there is some wacky thing in here I'm allergic to. Too bad. I always liked Almay, but I'm staying away from this. Coverage...

I have been using this on and off for three years or so. It is pretty good on my sensitive skin, but some times I think it might be clogging my pores. I have noticed that if use it just on some...

This gives you sheer, natural looking coverage thats semi-matte. It covers up the small stuff but if you have any actual acne, then you'll need a concealer. This isn't good if you have pale skin...

This is a nice foundation for someone who wants light to medium coverage and who has normal to combonation skin. Forget about it if your skin is even slightly oily. I love the shades in this line...

This reminds me why I've all but given up on drugstore foundations. I was in a 99-cent store and found boxes of this foundation on sale, so I decided to pick one up and give it a try. The shade I...

This is a good foundation if you want light coverage. Buff is a perfect match for my NC20 skin. I have never broken out from it, so that is a plus. I wouldn't recommend this for those with oily...
