I'm going to be the odd girl out here and say I really like this. However I don't use it alone, I use it as a base for my powder blushes and it works really well at keeping your blush on all day...

This product claims to transform into the ideal shade for your skin tone. I honestly think this is a complete lie, I think the color will appear the same on any skin tone. And the color, by the...

Got this in neutral and tried it a few times. Color turned out kind of mauve-pink, but mostly blotchy. It really did not blend well. Disappointing product.

Color dose not show up. You have to apply multiple layers to see a tint of color. Melts off my oily skin and turns patchy after awhile. Also you cant wear it over powder foundation cuz it wears off...

This product does not work well on my skin tone, it does not blend well. It’s a little on the bright side, but not awful. I would not buy this again when I could buy a different. Not something I...

This was a disappointing product. I don't have sensitive skin and this stung a little going on. I bought the pink/rose color and it just disappeared on my skin. I applied it twice thinking that...

It is a little bit lighter than I would like it to be. You can buy it in 3 different shades. I chose the lightest shade becuase i expected the color to be more intense. I played it conservative at...

I purchased several of these in different shades at Rite Aid a few months ago. They were on Bogo. First of all, these have almost no pigment to them. You put them on and they do not show up. ...

I wish I could like this blush more. The berry shade works better than the pink rose and natural (those two simply disappeared), but I don't normally wear blush, so I'm not very enthusiastic about...
