Horrifying, I don't know what possessed me to buy it. You might as well use Dermablend on your whole face, at least that was my experience. Thick and gummy, couldn't get it to blend correctly,...

I think this is an okay product, but I may be the odd one out in that I use it only as a concealer. Most days, I don't feel like wearing foundation, so I use this under my eyes and over blemishes....

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this already. I love this foundation. Coverage is excellent when applied with a 190 style brush (I use my Px) and can be built up as necessary. It didn't feel...

It's a nice product when you try it on in the store, but it needs touch ups throughout the day. Also, very little product comes in the compact. You will run out quickly and it's just not worth the...

OK, so MAC does amazing quality makeup in general, but they seriously fail in the foundation department! This hyped up creme compact slides off within hours of applying. You will need a fair amount...

For the money this foundation costs, it's just not up to much... Not long lasting. Soon looks tired and rough.
