This was the first coverage I was trying out, and I take back my choice! I was finding a foundation to cover up my facial acne that was rather terrible at the time. My mom told me to trust Almay,...

first "foundation". Not good for oily skin and the coverage is poor. Oxidizes way too fast and the color selection kind of sucks for darker skins. I will say that it might be good for those summer...

If you buy this product knowing that it's more like a tinted moisturizer (like me), you're going to be very satisfied! I absolutely love this stuff, I am in the shade 200 and it suits me perfectly....

I use this as a concealer. It sometimes dried out and looked like dead skin on my face. But when I moisturized before I used it it never dried looking bad

I purchased both the concealer and foundation, and neither of them did the job. It turned Snooki-orange on my skin, accentuated my pores, and didn't cover anything. Blended terribly. Looked caky....

I do not like this foundation. The lightest shade is way to dark for my skin and I feel it gives an orange undertone. I am not very impressed with the staying power and was drying on my skin. I...

PROS I like the packaging. Lightweight Shades are very forgiving. It takes little time to apply. CONS Too oily for my already oily skin:( I think it would work great on dry or normal skin.
