    I really liked how the product was white when it came out, then seem to match my skin tone perfectly. You're not reall supposed to use too much, because it will show. I think ladies that use less...

    I forgot I had this so I gave it another try... Now I remember why it was so forgettable... Did nothing but made my skin look bad by way of oily, not smart shade because it did not match my skin...

    After switching foundations on and off for the past few years, I always end up coming back to Almay Smart Shade. It doesn't have good coverage, but it's more of a tinted moisturizer than an actual...

    I am using Rimmel's face primmer with this product but I think that the color matches well for being "light" colored. I'm pretty fair skinned and it seems to match better then any other brand I've...

    I was surprised that I liked this after reading the reviews below. It is a very subtle color and does not cover acne. It does, however, minimize red skin tone and give a non orange glow. Definitely...

    I like using this liquid makeup when I'm trying to keep my regimen lightweight (say, if I'm having major acne problems). The only issue I have with it, however, is that it doesn't cover up acne...

    Bought the Fair version-was too dark for my skin-looked orange and very greasy.

    Purchased the formula for fair skin. Color starts to change as soon as it hits your fingertips. It's extremely sheer as far as coverage goes, even when applied straight to skin with no...

    This foundation is okay. Not amazing but it does work pretty well. I purchased the foundation in light/medium shade and it blends really easily. The color does adjust, as it says it does. The only...

    Ok. I've experimented a lot with this product since I've used it for so long. A lot of people on here wrote that there is no coverage. I agree IF you wear a moisturizer or something under it. When...

    I did NOT mind this at all. Actually - I kind of like it. I mix it with my Revlon Colorstay Active foundation for some extra staying power and feel it's okay! It didn't oil me up, and it stayed...

    This stuff is junk! Firstly, I don't care what kind of 'technology' it has in it, it looks like someone spilt dirt in a face cream before you apply it. When you do apply it, it turns into a streaky...
