    After a few disappointing tries with this, I love it. At first, I didn't blend fast enough and applied much more than I should have. It looked fake and didn't control oil well. After a few...

    I first tried this product because I was looking for a foundation, not a tinted moisturizer, with a SPF. The nice ladies at Sephora gave me 3 samples of different shades and each lasted a week. I...

    This is definitely my HG foundation. I have ultra fair skin that is super oily, and this is by far the best oil control I've found in ANY foundation. I've tried Chanel's Mat Lumiere (Which, in all...

    Well my face for some reason is considerably darker than my neck, so I bought the shade that matched my neck which also happened to be the lightest shade #15 (or alabaster). For once my face...

    So far, my favorite foundation. I have quite a few scars to hide, so I really like the coverage factor. Smooths on well, looks natural (as long as you're not heavy-handing it), nice consistency....

    I'm blown away by this foundation (in a good way!). It totally conceals my acne scars, and covers up my freckles to even out my skin tone. My VERY sensitive, acne prone skin has not had a problem...
