What an unfortunate investment I made.
I used this foundation for about 5-6 months. (I hate when people write a review for something they've used once - other than eye shadow, nail polish, etc. claiming it caused them to break out. You actually need to give something time to see whether that particular product is the break out culprit or whether it's something else that's changed in your routine or your environment. Anyway, moving on...)
I liked this at first - the color match was perfect on my pale skin - but it was too much for my sensitive, acne-prone skin. This did not make me break out right away, but, over time, acne that I had under control before using this foundation reared its ugly head. This fluid has added fragrance, AND the second ingredient is cyclopentasilixane, so beware if you're sensitive to either or both.
(I also happened to start using the Tarte Amazonian Clay Matte Waterproof Bronzer a few months after starting this foundation, which just compounded the acne factor. Yuck.)
I would recommend this perhaps to women with more mature skin who need more help holding in moisture. Or perhaps even to those with pustules and papules. But it's probably not for those of us who suffer from cystic acne.
Oh, also, the packaging is heavy, and the plastic cap that covers the pump broke in like two days. I'd expect a hydraulic pump or something for a bottle that costs $119 USD! Ha.

Wow, I wish I was as wowed as the other reviewers but I found this just very average bordering on disappointing and for 100 dollars I should be loving this right? Um no. It's seems lately when I shovel out the big bucks for a makeup product I walk away very disappointed not to mention with a lighter wallet and not finding the wonders folks are talking about. Meanwhile have found some great handspring-inducing finds at the drugstore.
Pros: Lightweight in feel. Light to medium coverage. Smells beautiful. Oil free.
Cons: Super expensive. Limited colors. Did break me out, not immediately but definitely. Irritated my rosacea and made my mature skin look older because this settled in fine lines and caked on me and my skin is normal/dry right now. Color deepened on me over the day.
I'm NC 25 and bought 1 which is pretty much spot on. Still wish I could return it but bought on Amazon so stuck with this. Lesson learned.

Fantastic product with a truly unique effect on skin. Hands down the best foundation in the market worthes every penny. Light, velvety and really luxurious, definately a must have....

HANDS DOWN THE BEST FOUNDATION :D I've tried a few high end foundations and all of them broke me out :( and I never tried the Sisley foundation until I saved enough money..... OMG the firs day I used it I couldn't believe it :'D I finally found my HG foundation, it not only doesn't break me out BUT IT IMPROVES MY SKYN and it looks VERY natural, almost like if u r not wearing anything AMAZING PRODUCT

Excellent foundation.I am NC 25 and I bought shade number one ivory.Unfortunately very expensive.In Turkey the price of Estee Lauder double wear foundation is 85 turkish liras and this one is 200 turkish liras.But it's worth that price.İ will buy it again. continued >>

I normally don't wear foundation as I don't really need it and the feeling of it on my face is disagreeable, but I bought this for special occasions. I put it on at 11am, then went out all day and night for a friends stagette, danced the night away, came home, and my makeup still looked great (maybe not my eyes...). It's true that skin needs to be very moisturized/primed before using this, but it looks great. The only downfall is the price.

This foundation is hands-down the BEST foundation out there in the market. Prior to this it was Chanel Teint Innocence but after that got discontinued and had enough problems looking for another HG foundation, I stumbled across this one. Mind you this foundation (like all Sisley products) is outrageously priced at $130 Cdn (before taxes) BUT I bought it and do NOT regret buying it. It gives me the luminosity and glow from within that I want. It is long lasting for sure and does not become blotchy during the day nor does it change colour during the day. The texture of this foundation is very light and I don't even feel like I'm wearing foundation - its literally 'My face but better'. I will warn those heavy coverage foundation lovers that this is a very sheer foundation and will only even out my skintone (which I love) as I don't like the heavy coverage. For an oil-free foundation I was not expecting it to provide me with a glow/luminosity but am ESTATIC that it does! I use #1+ and its the PERFECT match for my NC20 skintone. This is my HG foundation and now I just hope it won't get discontinued! Keeping my fingers crossed. Wish I could give this 10 lippies and more!

This is the only liquid foundation I use anymore. It is silky in texture- more on the runny side. It gives medium coverage, and looks very natural.
It does have a slight powdery scent to it, which is nice compared to Sisley's face products which smell terrible. The color I have matches me perfectly, and a little goes a long way.
I have the loose powder to set it, but it isn't necessary.

Best foundation I have ever tried. Looks and feels phenomenal. Does not melt or fade throughout the day. Covers well without feeling heavy. Will not break out my temperamental skin. Skin feels soft, smooth, fresh.

I have the feeling I've reviewed this prodcut already under "marie66"? Anyway, this is still my favourite foundation, and the best make up you could ever buy. I got married with it on in 2003 and still buy it.
It gives you perfect, natural coverage and a lovely shade.
It's an excellent luxurious product, so reserved for special occasions.

I loove this foundation so much! It was a godsend for me. I usually have pretty clear skin except for the occasional small blemish or redness so all I need to make my skin look reaaallly clear is a bit of powder. However, after a brief flirtation with the MAC tinted moisturizer, I emerged with cystic acne and inflamed, enraged skin and my usual powders couldn't cover up the mess. I desperation, I went to the Saks Fifth Avenue counter and asked for a gentle foundation that would cover everything up without breaking me out more. I usually avoid liquid foundations because I don't really need it and I hate the heavy feeling it gives my skin. I've tried so many and hated all of them and extended use would always break me out and look unnatural. I had vowed never to wear liquid foundation again but I was very desperate at this point for extra coverage. The SA applied this foundation to my skin and I haven't look back since. I was ashamed the be seen in public because of my skin but it did an amazing job of covering everything up and making my skin texture so much smoother. Of course, it couldn't cover up the large bumps as no foundation can but it felt lovely on my skin and made my skin lovely :) I used this during the entire few weeks of my skin clearing up from that horrible run in and it has honestly been so gentle and kind to my skin while making me look so naturally beautiful. This is not a heavy duty foundation. It will just gently blur imperfections and make you look like a beautiful, goddess like version of yourself. Now, I only use this bottle for special occasion when I am going to be under the camera or when my skin is having an "off" day. I always get compliments on how beautiful and porcelain my skin looks when I wear this. It makes you look lovely, luminescent, and matte all at the same time off and on the camera. Photos are very blunt and yet all I see is perfect, clear skin when I have this on before taking pictures. It lasts all day on your skin through sweating, crying, and being out in the hot sun. I love love love it. I cannot stress how amazing this is. I used to wear a lot of liquid foundations (all high end) and hated all of them, even the very famous ones and this is the most amazing one that I have ever used. This product has since turned me onto other Sisley products. I would completely recommend this product if you are willing to spend 100 + for it. However, if you aren't a daily user of liquid foundation like me it'd be a good investment for special occasions since the bottle lasts a veery long time. :)

I must say that I have been searching for that 1 foundation....this is it....I am asian,med tan,&the color match is perfect for me...I also purchased the loose powder &honestly I dont need it cause after applying my foundation,it looked AMAZING!!!!! Went out sat,night&the complements were overwhelming....LOL...my own husband thought I had gotten treatments done....looked natural,blended well...I felt &looked RADIENT!!! Though it is pricey but very well worth the money!!!! I have very dry,sensetive skin...works great w/my skin....LOVE IT ,will definitly repurchase again....=) continued >>

It's great, the best foundation I have ever had. Looks absolutely natural, controls oil as well. Pleasant smell. Photoshop in the bottle!

I'm still looking for my HG foundation and have normal/combination skin. I decided to try the Sisley foundation in (soft beige) despite the hefty price tag due to good reviews. Application-wise it goes on smoothly and feels lovely - I don't mind the slight smell that goes on with it. However, it clings to every single minor flake (in the cold weather) and just looks patchy. I have relatively good skin so am after light-medium coverage only, but it doesn't even do that very well. It's buildable but the more you apply, the more made up you look. The pump dispenser and packaging are great though! Not worth the money - I'll keep looking for my HG!

I bought this foundation in 1 early last year. I have been using it on quite some frequent basis and there is still half left in the bottle. I may try shade 0 next time since 1 looks very natural on me, and I may want a lighter one to bringten up the look.
But over all, the coverage is medium, not heavy makeup whatsoever. And it works very well with most of my moisturizers, which lots of other foundation cannot do. And the texture is smooth, very easy to spread and apply. With high humidity in the city that I live, this foundation lasts quite long which is amazing. So it's very good foundation, well worth every penny of it!

I love this foundation. Covers my spots, scars and evens my skin tone really REALLY well. Doesn't flake up or seep into pores/lines. It lasts for ages on my skin and doesn't look shiny, although I do set my foundation with a little loose powder which helps. Deceptively good coverage, which was unexpected as it's quite a thin consistency. The 01 Ivory is my shade, which matches my skin so well I can wear it on parts of my face and you really can't tell. The price is ridiculously high though, so I've marked it down a star.

amazing foundation.
sriously, there's no words to describe how amazing it makes my skin look and it is VERY natural. i have extremely critical when it comes to foundations and even very natural ones look very fake to me. ive used SKII airtouch, MUFE face and body, Clarins Everlasting Foundation, MUFE Mat+, Laneige Dual Crystal and even though some were more natural than others i eventually got sick of all of them one by one. they sit awkwardly on my skin and look so obvious that i'm weaking makeup without even covering it evenly. this foundation looks like my skin, and makes my complexion look SO EVEN.
AND IT STAYS ON ALL DAY. you dont know how amazing this is. even clarins everlasting foundation comes off in like 6 hours on me.
HG. will never stop buying - i dont care about the price. it's simply amazing.

Yes, it's very light-weighted and comfortable on the skin as if you have worn nothing, BUT it does not last, in spring and summer, it melts and runs down from my face along the sweat like a halfly dry watercolour painting soaked in water! I don't ask for high coverage in liquid foundation but this coverage is unreasonably poor. No different than Sisley tinted moisturizer. I have given the full bottle away to my baby sis.
Update: Sept 6th 2010
My sister is in Canada, it's dry in summer, you do not get sweaty there unless you deliberately go out and exercise. She has been using this foundation and feels great with the result and lasting effect. My conclusion is, this product is probably good to use when you live in countries that isn't so humid. Sisley might have made a wrong move on marketing this product in Asia, they might want to formulate a different version to cater to Asian market. Yes, it's hot and humid here from May to November. Add 1 lippy to 3.

This foundation did not irritate my super sensitive skin, and I really liked the color match- 0 was yellow very yellow toned but actually helped neutralize any redness and complemented my neutral to slightly warm tone PPP skin. However, the formula was very dry and no matter how I applied it made my skin look super flaky. I do have dry skin and can be a little flaky, but I feel like this invented flakes that I didn't even know where there. The smell is a little medicinal, but it didn't really bother me. I am going to stick with Chantecaille future skin, my old standby.

Pro: feels like you are not wearing any foundation!! goes on sheer. has a nice scent to it, doesnt smell like toxic/chemical or like foundation. buildable coverage.but still on the very sheer side, if you're looking to cover scars and stuff, this might not be the one.
Con: super pricy. bad color choice!! theyre all too pink for me. and all yellow tones are too lightt shaded.
I use 1+ but its still a bit light on me, cannot use 2 as it is too pink on my olive skintone.
