As an acne girl I have read countless lists of the best foundations to use. This one seemed to always be there. So I tried it. The color was a little too orange, but I guess that's my fault. What I...

This is a fantastic foundation for us girls who are extremely oily and are prone to breakouts. Its medium to full coverage and a little goes a long way - it takes a lot of blending due to the thick...

It made me break out. Don't like it at all. Also, I don't think the effect is worth the price.

The product is meant for combination and oily skin, and that I could see & feel. No oil came through during the day. The foundation is not very liquidy. In my experience it does not go on the skin...

Thick, need to dilute with water. Need only a pea for the whole face. "Porcelain Ivory" is equivalent to MAC C-1, which is practically non-existent anymore in their foundations. I gave up on...

Oily Skin: Quite simply, if you have super oily skin/acne-prone skin, this is the foundation for you. The texture is almost clay-like and is extremely pigmented. The trick to using this foundation,...

I paid a lot of money for this and so I WANTED to like this but, to be honest, it's absolutely terrible. Settles into the 'wrinkles' on my 23-year-old face that, normally, probably wouldn't...

I hate this so much. It literally dulled out and slid off my 48 year old nose by day's end. Why did I fall for the "this is so amazing" hype. This falls into the same category as KatVonD...
