I bought this product because I have been wanting to use more Aveda products and since I've been using another (cheaper) tinted moisturizer for years, I thought this would be a good switch for...

This is a little thicker of a foundation so those with oily skin may want to approach with caution. The range of colors in this foundation were probably the best I have seen with Aveda so far,...

Nice colour selection but needed the help of a sponge and/or brush to apply smoothly & evenly. This stuff made my face break out into tiny bumps all over my forehead and cheeks - it was...

I love this foundation, I use it every day. It stays put, and provides enough coverage for me without looking like I am "made-up". I apply over mac prep + prime, and if I wanna go a little fancier,...

I have sensitive combo skin and this worked out great for me. It left me with a natural, dewy finish and lasted all day without turning chalky or cakey. The formula is creamy and moisturizing, so a...

I bought this foundation over a week ago and have been using it every day. I must say…I am very impressed. It is a very light gel like formula that I find sinks right into my skin. It covers...

This foundation is full coverage, and does a better than average job of covering my acne scars. However, it does look like you're 'wearing makeup' (even when I combine just a little bit with a...

I have a really hard time finding a good color match, so finding Wheat which is a great match for me NC35 skin was a great begining. I love how this goes on. It's very thick in the bottle (which...

I wanted to like this product because I have had a hard time with foundations. I was excited to try it because Aveda products are organic. This foundation was very thick , had a strong smell and...

This is a completely average product. Nothing spectacular to me. If you want a real inner glow, check out Armani foundations--they are superb. If you want matte finish--look to Lancome TIU or EL...

Horrible! This foundation is so thick that one can barely get it out of the bottle! It spreads fine, but it then seems to just sit on the face and look overly "Make-up-y." It's consistency is...

EDIT REVIEW: I think Aveda first repackaged this item and left the formula pretty close to the original BUT then they must have reformulated it later. Anyway, I sure did not get what I thought I...

The shade Hichory is the best match to my skintone Mac NW45/ Bobbi B W. Almond/ Becca Nuba skintone that I've found to date and the texture of this foundation was great for my acne scars. However,...

The Aveda concept of cruelty-free, natural beauty is wonderful, but every time I fall in love with a product, it is discontinued or changed when I return to re-purchase. This foundation is...

Aveda please bring back balance-plus foundation. This new stuff does not compare to it. Definetly will be looking for a new HG foundation.

Packaging isn't ideal. It's a little bottle, with quite a narrow opening. And it's also quite a thick formula, it doesn't run out, so it'll become increasingly harder to get it out of the bottle as...
