NYX's The Make-up was ordinary to me. It's neither really good nor really bad; it's just not "the best make-up I've ever used." I wanted to wear this on days where I didn't want to wear my high-end...

I love most of the NYX products that I have tried but this foundation is horrible. It goes on extremely uneven and doesn't blend at all. They don't have a wide variety of shades either and the...

Purchased the product today, been dying to do so for some time as I'm a makeup junkie. I live in the Caribbean so it was a pit pricey for me, the equivalent of about $20USD but I'm not sorry at all...

I bought this in the lightest shade in Ferbruary 2012. The shade is called 'Pale'. Its an exact shade match for NW10. So happy that I have a foundation that I can slap on without mixing with white....

Bought the two lightest shades (this is the old version, before they changed the shades), and was shocked to see that they were both too pale for pale, pale me. But since I have enough foundations...

I must edit this review as this has been reformulated. The Pale (01) is still pale but it's not nearly as light as it was before, so it's turned relatively useless to me as a mixer. Some other...

This foundation is great, especially during winter, but it's very light coverage--a bit more than a tinted moisturizer. It's very thin and watery, and it'll look uneven if you don't set it...

This foundation has a great dewy finish and medium coverage, evening out tone and softening blemishes. I really don't like a flawless finish at the cost of cakey fake-looking skin, so this natural...

This foundation is light enough for me but it doesn't cover like Revlon ColorStay with SoftFlex for Normal/Dry skin, my HG. Also, it didn't beak me out even though it contains mineral oil. I ended...
