It has a good coverage and blends well. I love the finish, but it's way too pricey, smells weird, and breaks me every time I wear it!!!

This used to be my holy grail foundation. I've heard it's been discontinued, so you may want to look into that before taking a long trip to the mall only to be disappointed. I've got very acne...

This foundation makes your skin looks so dry and flat! It is also very cakey and masky looking on the face. Very hard to remove, I had to use ponds to get it off. It also clogged many of my pores...

When they started making the "Double Wear" I believe they might have discontinued the original "Double MATTE". Now I have used both. The Double WEAR is pretty much similar, except its a bit more...

This is a very nice foundation with a natural matte finish. It feels very light on the skin. If you have normal to combination oily skin and you like a matte look you will love this. However, if...

I am giving this a 3 and only for one reason. The poor color choices!! I went to the Estee counter and got a match...so I thought. I came home and reapplied to my whole face. My face looked PINK...

Whenever I wear this product I feel as though I'm clogging my pores and as though I'm hiding my skin. It does what it says on the packet but for me it's just to full on-more of a night time look....
