Worst foundation ever. In this instance, you really do get what you pay for. It's hard to get it out of the bottle, but yet it's really liquidy?! It feels like it has no substance whatsoever when you put it on but yet you have to pound it against your hand to get any to come out! I have oily skin and this stuff doesn't even stay on an hour..and FORGET coverage. It doesn't have any! Also it has broke me out! I'll never buy this again.. good thing it was only three dollars.

First I want to say this foundation got 2 stars ONLY for the fact that the shade did match my skin tone perfectly. My color was 686. Other than that, everything is bad. First of all, it is runny. Doesn't feel oily, but is very slippery. It also is more like a tinted moisturizer than a foundation. It doesn't cover any type of flaw whatsoever. Also, I have a normal skin, not dry or oily, and this stuff just slips off. 4 hours later you can dab a tissue on your face it comes off as if it is still wet. I used this over my Rimmel Pro Primer as well and it didn't help at all. I wouldn't suggest going out in public with this foundation on, it will end up on your shirt.

I have been looking for a cheap foundation for a while and i decided to give this a try. The packaging isant the best, it comes out extremely fast since it's a squeeze tube and one Time it actually exploded out the top when I hardly squeezed it.:/ it has very minimal coverage but it's light and spreads out ok. Blends into skin ok.. But if you put it on your finger it actually peels and rolls into little pieces and looks bad:( but overall i think it would be ok to apply with a brush and fine if you have very few imperfections. It has a strong smell of (babypowder?) and it made my whole makeup bag smell. Lol but I wouldn't buy it again.

I purchased this product recently and I like it allot. It blends easily as long as you blend it right away. You only need a small amount. It is not heavy duty, but gives nice coverage and I have red spots on my face. I am fair and I bought light to medium and it blends right in. And you can't beat the price.

Ok, it's dirt cheap, so it's not like blowing $20 for a big name, and I have had no such problems with flaking. I use a mix of blending with my fingers and patting and it was fine. I just used a powder to set it. It lasted about as long as any other foundation. I picked light to medium and it a really good match. It does go on like a tinted moisturizer, i.e. The coverage is light, but with some concealer it's not that big a deal. I ust this with simple eye makeup and the N.Y.C. Rose Gold lipstick, and get complimented for a natural look all the time :) if your looking for a cheap foundation/ tinted moisturizer, this is a good deal!

I found this in a small shop in the clear out section and it was a complete impulse buy because I love checking out new foundations.
It's a very thing consistency and certainly doesn't cover. Like someone else has said - it's more like a tinted moistoriser than a foundation. The colour does match my skin pretty well, and i found it much easier to blend with fingers. Using a sponge is no good at all. It does tend to crumble a little bit if you blend too much which is annoying, but it leaves a pretty good finish.
Overall, I would probabyl buy this again because it was so cheap but I only really use it when I don't have a lot of time and need to slap some foundation on really quickly to even out my skin a little.

This is a great foundation for those with dry skin and require minimal coverage. I would say that this is very similar to a tinted moisturizer; as it applies and blends as such, and has moisturzing properties.
I purchased this in the shade Light, which was a good match for my NC20-25 skin. The consistency is quite thin, and packaging would've been better in a pump bottle, or any bottle for that matter, as this can drip out of the squeeze tube.
I recommend setting this with a light dusting of powder once dried, for a long-lasting effect. Coverage is light, and basically just evens out your skin tone, but will require concealer for scars or dark circles. I have not had issue with this balling up or giving a weird texture; perhaps when mixed with other products, such as sunscreen it might change the texture.
Overall, I would not purchase this again, as my combo skin can only use this in the dead of winter, and I'm sure I will not be using this up anytime soon.

This goes on sheer, provides light coverage. However, it balls up when you rub it on so it flakes off; this is strange, why would it do this?! The color matched me fine, medium beige, I'm NC40. It doesn't go on smoothly. I don't like this at all.

I mostly use tinted moisturizers because I like light, breathable coverage. This foundation was dirt cheap at Wal-Mart (under 4 dollars) and it looked light it would be a light coverage, so I decided to give it a try.
Well... this stuff sucks for me. While I'm trying to blend it on my face, it balls up/rolls off in flakes! So it's basically impossible to actually have it cover my face... AND it's *very* heavily perfumed! I could possibly forgive the perfume (but it's really, really strong) but not so much the flaking. It really reminds me of those nail polish kids might use- the one that is water based and you can peel right off your nail. I just don't understand why it does this.
Furthermore, the color isn't so great for me personally. I'm sort of lightly tanned.. NC35-37ish and I chose medium. The color is too dark/orangy on me. Bleh. I would return and go up a color, but the other issues put me off from doing that.

I love this foundation. Every time I wear it people compliment on how my skin looks natural. It is light to medium finish I recommend this any one who wants to get a nice finish. They only thing I don't like is the smell, but I still use and it has vitamins in it so it is healthy for you.

I bought this cos it was on offer in Superdrug,something silly like £3.Now I have some expensive foundations in my stash..MAC,Estee Lauder and so on so I dont know why I picked this up.Probably felt like trying it and knowing if I didnt like it I hadnt really wasted my money.I picked the lightest shade fair and bought it home.
The shade is excellant! Its a lovely pale neutral shade,no pink or orange undertones.I was amazed at how well it matched my skin.It really did adapt to my face,my skin looked even and well rested but you couldnt see the product.
It went on really well,its quite creamy without being thick..blended well and covered any blemishes I had.
It lasted a good few hours without oxidizing and even now 8 hours later my skin still looks good.Its worn off a bit but no more than other foundations.
Overall a great foundation for a very good price,good shade selections and a squeezy tube so no waste.

I don't like this as well as the Smooth Skin foundation. I have dry skin and though I used a moisturizer, it peeled off when I tried to blend it. Reminded me of Maybelline's Pure makeup.
