I have recently tested this foundation. I wore it for 8 hours and was very very disappointed. First it settled into all lines and pores on my face, making it look worse. After 3-4 hrs it became...

This foundation is kind of pricy and I don't love it enough to buy it once I've finished it. I have dark spots and I can't seem to find the right way to blend it properly, but that might just be me...

Really surprised by the hype surrounding this. On my dry skin, it is not luminous at all. It's got a very dull and flat finish. Coverage is buildable, good shades to choose from, but other than...

It has a good coverage but it doesn't stays on for a long time. In my opinion more affordable foundations are doing the same job. It's not worth the price!

I sampled this today in shade 5 and was impressed with the medium satin finish. It covered my pink cheeks but still allowed my freckles to peep through, which I liked. I can’t 5/5 it because...

Extremely underwhelmed with this foundation. It is overpriced simply due to it working like a regular foundation. I do feel like cheaper foundations are able to provide the same results.

Okay, very expensive and not the best i have tried so far. Wouldn't buy it again. Foundation shouldn't be more than 15-20 dollar, as the ingredients are very low price nowadays.

I like this foundation a lot, but I think it's too expensive and it also doesn't last on my skin very well...it just doesn't adhere to it. I ordered the mini-size from Sephora, which is $42 for...

For years I had an oily complexion and as a result was only attracted to a matte look on my face. However, as I've got older and now have combination skin, I realise that a matte look is aging. I'm...

This foundation is beautiful, but it's not for oily skin. I've worn this for a couple of days with the same primer, powder, & setting spray. Within 4 hours, my face was an oil slick and I needed to...
