    Great foundation if you really want to even out your skin tone or hide blemishes. I often use it alone on bad days but very often I'll thin it out with a regular or tinted moisturizer (a bronzier...

    Another PPP who had to try this for the color. I absolutely love that Alabaster is light enough for me. That's worth $35 to me... almost. My skin is not as oily as it used to be, but I wear...

    I've been searching for a good matte foundation for awhile but this isn't it. It's not terrible, in fact it looks pretty nice when first applied but doesn't wear long and just isn't what I would...

    I really, really like this stuff. It is the only foundation that matches my EXTREMELY pale skin perfectly. I get the color #15. It leaves my oily skin perfectly matte. I will say that I do use...

    What I like about it: Currently, this is the foundation I am using most often. The consistency is quite heavy, but using a brush easily moderates the amount of product I put on my face. I’m loving...
