Beautiful color for golden skinned, dark haired girls like me. I break out from it so I can only use it on my nose.

A fantastic light foundation(my shade, Monte Carlo). Let me point out that I abhor liquid foundations with a passion, but the Nars employee at SAKS convince me to give it a try ...and I ended up...

Got a generous sample of this from Sephora and will definitely purchase. My combo/oily skin has finally cleared up, so I've been looking for lighter coverage for summer. Unfortunately, most brands...

I purchased this in Alaska and it just wasn't a good color match for me. I liked the nice light texture, though. Had a bit too much pink for my skin tone.

I bought this at sephora mainly because it looked neat and clean in the tube. This is slighty bronzing on my tan skin (St.Moritz but you need only use a tiny bit. It goes a long way. Make sure to...

This product was definitely orange and hard to blend but when I did get it on it looked great. My skin did get oily a little faster that usual, and for the price you don't get much product but I...

My sister gave me this having tried it and not liked it, colour, St Moritz which is slighly orange for my skin. It is, as others have said, disappointing, and package design has moved on a long,...

As many of the other reviewers have pointed out, this is basically a lovely foundation with a terrible color selection. The texture is light, yet it covers well and really minimizes pores (making...

So far so good. Just bought it last night ... first try out. But it seems to be holding up to high humidity and my sometimes oily complexion. I've been a Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer fan for...

I got a sample of this in Monte Carlo from Saks this weekend. The MA didn't know too much about this so she was kind of iffy about it. I asked for a sample so that I could take it home and test...

I love the product, and have been using it for some time. It's a gel foundation w/spf10. The only negative is the packaging. It comes in a tube and sometimes goos all over the cap.

The color range is limited in this product, however it's neutral enough to do well for most. Pricey-and the coverage was so-so.

I received a sample of this in a swap and to be honest, I wasn't all that impressed. The coverage is a light to medium and it had a semi-matte finish. I think I much prefer my Armani LSF over this...

The foundation itself is amazing. I like the way it blends easily and doesn't look like a "mask", but still evens out my skin tone. However, I do have a problem with the packaging (big surprize)....

I have this in Alaska. It feels great on, and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. It matches my skin perfectly. But...it's hard to apply right--too much, and I look chalkily pale, too little, and...

First of all, I think this is definitely overpriced. For such a sheer foundation, it should apply and blend a lot easier. Results depend a lot on skintype and what base you use. At this price...

I have this in St. Moritz. Goes on and feels very light. Color selection is not the best. So I can see this may not work for many. Does well on my T-Zone. I'm not sure yet if i would repurchase...
