The best! Hands down- there is nothing better! I've been using it for 11 years now. Tried some others along the way, and they are all crap compared to this stuff. I just love it! Will probably...

The coverage is garbage and it seems to wear off my face in a couple hours. It also makes me look oily. Not sure what all the hype is about this.

Thought I'd try out a powder foundation, my skin is crap and I want to be gentler on it. The packaging is nice and a decent amount of product for the price. I really like the twist top so it...

https://youtu.be/taqHHjlrnp8 The longer you wear this the better your skin will look. I am never how good the coverage is when I first put it on, which is confusing, but by the end of the day,...

Two words: shiny mess! It is also very expensive! It makes my already oily skin look worse. The packaging, even though is better than other loose powders because it locks where the holes are, is...

Holy grail mineral foundation - I use on top of a moisturiser and primer, and never have issues with dryness on my patchy cheeks. Flawless look with enough buffing. I top with the mineral veil and...

I think I might have liked this when my skin was oily but now that it is dry it's just not a good product for me. When I was at Sephora, I test this on my hand and it was amazing how little...

First off, I have sensitive combination skin that tends to be very dehydrated. At first this foundation applied very nicely but about an hour later my face was blotchy and oily. It doesn't claim to...
