I get the worst breakouts when I use my MAC foundation. Normally I only wear this when I go out, because it has a really good coverage. And when I go home, I really clean my face so there is no...

My HG foundation I'm never switching! It's my perfect color in nc30. It lasts all day (excluding working out) . Yellow undertone is perfect for my skin. It doesn't crease or make my skin super...

I think the studio fix is a great foundation of MAC's. I have very pale skin and NC15 was a perfect match for me. It goes on very easily and smoothly with a foundation brush and you can slowly...

definitely not natural looking... It looks, feels and even smells thick and heavy. It has great coverage of course but that comes with a fake look which I personally don't love. Also the shade they...
