    I have this in 005 Warm Honey, which is too orange/ruddy on my bare skin. However, my new moisturizer (Olay White Radiance UV Natural Lightening Lotion) gives my face a whitish cast, so when I use...

    This product is great! Throw out that dingy little sponge they give you, grab a wonderful Kabuki brush, and brush on the matte! You'll notice how smooth and poreless your skin looks without feeling...

    I think this has pretty much made me give up on trying to find a perfect powder foundation. I was roaming the makeup isles of Target looking for a new mascara to try when I stumbled upon a few of...

    This stuff actually works for me. I use the spongy thing they provide for more opaque coverage over a blemish, etc. Then I use a nice all over face brush for everywhere else. I even use it on my...

    I have very fair skin so I purchased the porcelain color. The actual color of the powder is way too dark and orange. I would compare it to a golden-medium in other brands. Thank goodness it was...

    Once I tried applying this with a brush, I ended up liking it. It's a light coverage powder. My skin is almost clear enough where I can use this as my "foundation". I'm comfortable just using it on...

    Ok, i hate this product! It makes my face look weird and powdery and definetly not a nice matte finish. It comes off VERY easy and lasts about 30 mins. even if you try not to touch your face. So...

    I bought this because I am looking for a good foundation and I don't like the liquid ones. My skintone is a medium color, kind of like a light tan. Anyway, I have this in Nude (102). It goes...

    I'm surprised by the reviews here. Maybe it's not the best foundation ever, but for $5, this stuff is fabulous. I bought this in a shade too dark, but it didn't turn me orange - in fact, when I...

    I was very disappointed with this. In fact I thought it was terrible for several reasons. 1) I bought 'Ivory' (which is always right for me in other Rimmel products) but it was significantly darker...

    Sucks, sucks, sucks. That about sums it up. Turned greasy and orange within 45 minutes. Provided absolutely no coverage whatsoever. Thank God it was only $6.

    This turned me orange! And I was using the lightest color, porcelain, which was dark enough for me, strangely enough. The color selection is very weird. The mirror is big for a compact, but there...

    Well, the packaging is god-awful. That ugly skin tone square block is like carrying a brick in my purse. The formula isn't bad-it covers just slightly and does not look chalky, but the colour...

    This has a nice smooth texture and great coverage for a powder foundation. Too bad the colors are so godawful. None of these shades look like skin. I wear Ivory or True Ivory in Rimmel's liquids...

    Can't get a color that's right in this - they are all way too dark and orangey. As for it staying matte - not on my super oily skin.
