    I really like this product. I always use panstik which I love and is more convenient for on-the-go, but when I have the time, I use this in Tan #1. It provides a very matte, yet flawless look...

    I've been using this for a week now and I love it! It doesn't come with a mirror or a sponge, but that's not a problem. I have oily/acne prone skin and this stuff covers up my imperfections very...

    I have given this a good month of testing to see if I like it. I got the Natural #1 because I typically get the ivory foundation when I buy. I have to say that I like it. I wore it to a concert...

    This foundation product was too thick for me. It has very good coverage but the shade selection is not right. There should be more shades and more less orange shades. It was also a bit expensive...

    This is too hard to use. And it has no coverage. It also emphasizes any dry/flakey patches you might not have known were there. I used it for about a week and then threw it away.

    This was a previous HG before I discovered MAC Studio Fix (I’m a shade C2/NC20 as a guide). It stays matte and provides medium coverage when used with a wet sponge. I repurchased over and over...

    My Mom put me onto this product as she's used it for decades. It's perfect for concealing flaws, and is so blendable that I don't have to wear it all over. I find it works best when applied with...

    I don't wear makeup every day so I have only used this foundation about 3-4 times. But this might honestly be the best foundation I have ever tried. I use a flocked sponge to apply and the trick...

    Ok, as far as foundations go-this kicks ass because it is a water adhesive , so there is very little oil in this make-up and it has light to heavey coverage. The only drawback are the colors-a lot...

    I just bought this a few days ago, and so far I'm loving it. It goes on sheer (I haven't really tried the layering effect yet), and after a while I can't even feel it. I got Natural No. 1, and it...

    This is probably one of the worst foundations I have ever tried. Very unatural looking, emphasizing pores and lines. I threw it out after using it twice.

    What a cakey and oily look on my face. I have to say it doesn't help that much for cover some spots that you need. Totally disappointed.

    This is the best foundation I have ever used! It comes in a dry cake form in which you wipe your wet cosmetic sponge on to collect some foundation. It leaves a beautiful matte finish on your skin...
