I am on my second bottle in 03.

I love this because it is gentle for sensitive skin. I don't just have sensitive skin, I have eczema skin so this is very important. Does not sting or hurt my broken skin when I glide this over.
Sheer to moderate coverage but I am ok with that.

Coverage is sheer but I am fine with that. No oxidization either.

But it only has a 90 days of shelf life after opening which is a bummer cause I could not finish a whole bottle in 90 days. I tried using after the 90 days due date but had quite a breakout so would not recommend anyone trying the same thing!

I bought this based on the good reviews here but it's not really working out for me :(


This foundation has the coverage of a tinted moisturizer n while it does eliminate redness, it dosent cover acne marks well. Also it sank into my pores. Sigh... I have to use this up in 3 months before it expires.

This is absolutely the most beautiful foundation I have tried. Seriously. I can't stress it enough, and I have reviewed 3 pages of foundations here on MUA. This blends in so easily, and looks like it has become your skin. It makes the texture of the skin look velvet smooth, radiant, and poreless. Yet, it is not heavy coverage so some skin texture shows through. It does not cake up around my nose, accentuate pores or fine lines. It does not highlight dry patches. It wears incredibly, incredibly well. After 12 hours it is still going strong - no sliding around, no pooling in pores. The color 03 matches me well, though I suspect I could wear 02 also (I am between NC 15 and NC 20). It also has no parabens. However, I am not certain of the safety of this product and for that reason probably won't buy it. (I had sample packets). It uses nano-particles of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide (I wrote the company and asked). I am hesitant to use nanoparticles as there is a chance they can absorb right through skin and into the blood stream. Until science proves nanoparticles are 100% safe, I won't be using it, as much as a long to :-(

Like the previous reviewer, I am a mineral makeup lover and is also very picky about wearing foundation because of all the chemicals that are in it. Despite the fact that this foundation is preservative free, it's not by all mean natural. Fancl's goal though, is to create the gentlest makeup that even the most sensitive skin can enjoy. I break out very easily from foundation so I must say that Fancl had succeed that goal in my opinion.

I love Origins Some Coverage liquid foundation and it was my HG before it got discontinued. Fancl Liquid Foundation replaced Origins Some Coverage instantly for me. It's extremely light, yet provides great moderate coverage. I love sheer foundation and this one can be blended out for a sheer coverage, and this is how I wear it daily. The first time I worn it to work, my boss asked me what do I use because my face look so good. My sister said it didn't look like I'm wearing any foundation because the color matches so well. After one week of using the sample without breaking out, I decided to place an order for it.

My skin looks smooth, glowing, and very soft with this foundation. This foundation will give you the beautiful skin illusion even if you have minor flaws. It might not cover some flaws completely, but it will look like you have good beautiful healthy skin already. I don't say that often with all the foundations that I like and have tried. I would say that this is even better than my HG Origins Some Coverage. Some Coverage only even out the skin tone for me, but it is all I need really. I have combination skin and this foundation is long lasting (8hrs) for me. I splashed my face with water one day because it was hot and foundation didn't budge. I used a tissue to dry my face, only a tiny bit came off.so make sure you have a good makeup remover. I use John Masters face wash and it does a good job washing off the foundation. On the positive side, you won't need to worry about retouching your foundation if you are in the rain! If you have very oily skin, I recommend to use some loose powder over it to help it last longer.

I'm on my 2nd bottle now, and I love this product.
I have always been a liquid foundation girl, and after going through the mineral foundation phase, there was no way that I was going back to oily and messy foundations choked full of preservatives. Fancl foundation, as with its other skincare products, claimed to be paraben-free, which was good news for my ultra sensitive skin.

This non-sticky light-weight liquid foundation has a light/moderate coverage, that doesn't cake nor streak by the end of the day, even in hot humid weather. It brightens my skintone as it smoothes out the pores. I've always had a problem with heavy oxidation of the makeup on my skin, but not with this, surprisingly.
