I have a hard time matching my skin tone. I'm fair with yellow undertones and oily acne prone skin. I got this in the lightest color which I forgot the name and in the next shade up which is 678 barely beige. Both colors looked ok not much different from each other. The thing is I don't like the shine it gives. My face looks really greasy even with powder. I also noticed that you can't layer it that much. It looks and feels weird on the skin. I really tried to give it more chances but just didn't work out for me. The packaging really sucks too. Its really hard to get out. I had to scoop it out into a pump bottle I had. I didn't really notice any weird smell.

I really like this foundation!! After reading the reviews of this foundation I was torn to buy it because some reviews were positive and some negative. After a while I decided to try it and it worked perfectly! I have acne prone skin and this foundation did not make me break out at all. It is buildable and it covers my huge pores. The price is amazing, I got it for $4.00!!! The only reason why I gave it 4 out of 5 is because of the packaging quality. The foundation is a little thick and the bottle does not help get the product out easily, however you can use a Q-tip to take it out and then use your make up brush or fingers to apply the foundation. I am definitely buying this foundation again.

This product has gotten a good and bad reputation. The coverage the foundation gives you is AMAZING! But, it is very difficult to get out of the bottle. After struggling with getting the product out for awhile I found that if you heat it in the microwave (yes in the bottle it's completely safe since it's glass) for less than 10 seconds it comes out so easily! Or you can put a small amount of hot water in the bottle and shake it to make it more accessible.

I bought this at Walmart for under $3.00 This is perfect example of "You get what you pay for." About the only positive thing I have to say about this foundation is that it's cheap and the color was a good match to my skin.

This foundation was awful. It is extremely runny and goopy. The texture is very strange. It also feels very wet and greasy. It just kind of sat on my face and didn't absorb into my skin at all. I could only tolerate wearing this makeup on my face for about 30 seconds. I couldn't wait to take it off. I didn't try applying powder over the top of this. Then I would have really had a mess. Fortunately, I did have a bottle of a different foundation in my make-up bag. It also provided very little, if any coverage. I got this off my face and dumped it in the trash. I will not be buying this product again.

I was a faithful user of revlon colorstay, sand beige. I did notice a difference the last time i purchased it but i didnt realize they changed the formula. Now its horrible! Def not worth $20! The coverage, texture, overall feeling has changed and I hate it so I went on the hunt. Based on good reviews i purchased this for $4.99 at Walmart. I picked up nude since the ivory looked pink and I have yellow undertones. This is fantastic! I actually love the texture its like a mousse thats why its so thick, I use a qtip and then dot my face and spread with a makeup brush. The light mousse texture, the colour i love it! What a steal. I do wear my Marcelle BB cream underneath for extra coverage. I will definately repurchase this. I love that it has no sunscreen so it doesnt leave any grey cast.

So far I am loving this foundation for 2 reasons - it makes my skin look exactly the way I WANT it to look when I'm wearing makeup (which would be light coverage, matte, better than my own skin). After reading the reviews on here about how hard it is to get out of the bottle, I just shake it first then put it on its side and give it a few good whacks, like you have to do with a ketchup bottle for lack of a better example. It pops right out. It's fairly thick, so I apply it with a flat powder brush (from E.L.F. - found it at Target for $6 and I have now purchased three...but that's another review) mostly in my t-zone area then I put a light application of loose powder over it. I do not find that it turns orange on me (I bought nude since I am a very fair skinned chick) and it does not make me any oilier than normal. I bought this bottle for $2.74 at Target - how can you beat that price?? I say give it a whirl! Not much to lose here. **Edit: I am in love with this makeup. I've had a few photos taken lately and I'm noticing that my makeup looks SO nice... I hadn't realized how what I was wearing before really wasn't cutting it until I saw these recent pix. Wowsers! It just takes a teensy amount applied with a brush and it covers perfectly without screaming "I'm Wearing Foundation". EXACTLY what I wanted!

My search for a new HG foundation has been going on for years. This foundation was cheap but like others you can not get it out of the
bottle. It turned me into a greasy oil slick and when I looked in the car mirror I looked like a pumpkin....pass on this one for less than 3.00 what was I expecting.

What a shame the product is darn near impossible to get out of the bottle, because I love the way it looks on my face. Flawless coverage, no breakouts, and a great price too. However I don't like how hard it is to get out, so I won't repurchase.

I bought this on a whim at WalMart. It is designed for teen girls (who don't need base anyway) with little discretionary income. This emphasizes every pore & crack on my face, doesn't blend. Just what I would expect ofr less than $3, but I will definitely be returning this as I found some Stile One Step on Ebay for $7. continued >>
