    A terrible foundation! This foundation settles into every little line on my face (and I'm 29 - not too many lines yet) and looks dull, cakey and chalky. By lunchtime the foundation has worn off...

    I have such a love hate relationship with this foundation. I have been using it for 2 years now because NW20 is the only shade that matches my skin and looks natural on me. I have tried so many...

    I hated this foundation. The color selection is terrible, it broke me out, it didn't give good coverage. It also dried my skin out completely (making it flake), and became streaky at the end of the...

    For the quality, its cheap, the whole brand is cheap compared to other high end brands. I think, cause its waterbased, it gives a little powdery finish, which i dont like. So therefor a third...

    I'm still on the fence about this foundation. I like it, I really do. I think you get great coverage and it's cheap for the amount of foundation you're getting. Like all of the other reviews, the...

    This is an okay foundation, depending on what you're looking for. It has light coverage so you still need a concealer after, but it doesn't sink into pores or cause breakouts. It is also is very...

    This is absolute garbage. It may work for some, but I bet Drug store foundations are better then this. It is so not worth the price, and it does not last all day. To me something like this should...

    I've been testing out all of MAC's liquid foundations. This one is my favorite: the color applies lighty, doesn't oxidize and leaves a matte medium finish. I'm between an NC 30 to 37 (all the...
