    I love the idea of mineral makeup and the swirl tap buff application. I love how this makes my skin feel. The only thing I don't like it is can look cake-y if you try to build a fuller coverage,...

    As a foundation addict I always wanted to give this a try. I have oily skin with fairly noticeable pores under my darkish under eye circles. I buffed my new golden medium foundation with a RT face...

    Love this foundation. Gives enough coverage to even out skintone and cover redness. Not heavy at all and feels like you're not even wearing foundation. Buffs into skin beautifully and...

    Surprise, this worked better than Laura Geller Balance n Brighten or Smashbox Halo. The color I use is medium beige, said to be less pink, and it is. I'm a neutral beige, one fairer than medium....

    My skin is not too problematic, with usually no pimples, just some redness and blackheads, which thankfully can be covered up easily. I got this in Fairly Light, as a birthday present last year,...

    First impressions: - Messy to apply. I can't imagine this would be convenient for on-the-go touch ups during the day - I'd want to be near a bathroom at all times when applying it, as the powder...

    This just doesn't work on me. I have oily skin, some redness on my cheeks and chin, and somewhat enlarged pores. This covers pretty well the redness and the few zits I have, and gives definitely...
