I use this foundations for touch ups only. I find the packaging great for my handbag and the compact mirror handy for on the go touch ups, The only issue I have with this is that I find it's sticky and rubs off. But I will keep using this product for as I said its the best for on the go touch ups

Love this foundation. Bought it a few weeks ago from the Avon catalogue and despite being a little dubious about it, tried it out. I got the second lightest shade (cannot remember the name, sorry) and it was an exact match to my skin.

I have to say though, it is so important to moisturise before using this, as it slings to any dry skin and makes it obvious.

Otherwise, this is a fab foundation, and coming from Avon, incredibly cheap.

Overall, I love this foundation. It looks awesome on my skin and covers up discoloration. It also looks incredibly natural compared to many other foundations I've tried. The only bad part is that after 5 hours or so, my skin starts to get oily, and I have to re-apply it because I get shiny....but besides that, I will keep coming back to this foundation.

I have dark circles so i need a good foundation as well as concealer out of all the foundations ive tried this is my favourite! Ive been using it for about a year and will keep on using it, although Avon seem to keep uping the price each year so I just stock up when its on sale! It fits in by bag so I can do quick touchups if I need it and it goes on so easily and is quite light with good coverage and comes with a sponge and is a mirror compact. But I think you have to find the right shade for it to work well for you, I use ivory which is the lightest shade, overall..I love it!

This product would just go an ok in my book. It covers well, but I couldn't find a shade that matched my skin tone, nothing about it overly excited me. The best thing that I can say about it is that it fits into a makeup bag well. Other than that it is just ok.

nice cream to powder foundation with medium to full coverage. i was between shades as there are not too many, and it did tend to splotch and require reapplication when my skin got a little too oily in the summer. overall a nice product, but can be a little messy on oily skin.

NO, not for me! I have oily skin yet this makeup dried ME up! Personally, I have had lots of difficulty with avon in finding an appropriate foundation shade, as well.

This product did not work for me. It does not cover well and looks blotchy on. This one was very disappointing.

didnt like it at all! DOES NOT CONTROL OILIES! it actually adds to the oil i think goes on quite greasy. i got the wrong shade (warmest beige) because normally cream to powder foundations go on lighter than they look in the compact. it didnt! no colour matching technology! was quite cheap but avons products are quite poor quality.

Well I have always wanted to use a cream to powder foundation due to the ease of it all, and it always looked so great, but I never could because I needed a fuller coverage than any cream to powder had to offer. That is until I found this product! It is wonderful! It provides me with the perfect coverage, not too heavy, not to light, and it is so fun! Smooth application & really lasts a long time! I will buy over and over again!!! Thanks again Avon for another WONDERFUL product!!!

I purchased this in the lightest shade, ivory. It looked dark in the compact but turned out to be just the right shade. It covers well and stays the day. I do end up a bit oily in the T zone after a couple of hours, but that's what blotting papers are for! I have combination skin that is not acne prone. I paid about six bucks for this on sale and will purchase again. HG status? Not sure.......

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this foundation! I've tried tons of them, and this has by far been my favorite. I got the Personal Match Cream-to-Powder foundation in Ivory after I saw it reviewed in a magazine. I need a med to heavy coverage foundation to cover some discolorations due to acne. Everything else I tried was very "cakey" looking and heavy feeling. This is so lightweight and the coverage is great. It dries pretty quickly to a powder finish, and it looks very natural. I mosturize before applying, so this might help with the smooth coverage. Best yet, it was very inexpensive. It is reg $8 and I got it on sale for $5.99. I will definitly be buying this again!

My grandmother, Pat, bought me some creme foundation from Avon a while back.
Needless to say I was not impressed with the product, because of how horrible it looked on my skin. It looked cakey, and it most definitely accentuated my pores. When I went out into the sunlight, I looked absolutely horrible! I looked even worse in flourescent lighting!
If anything, I will not be using Avon's creme to powder foundation again.

I have been using the Personal Match cream to powder foundation for about 4 months. I use the color Ivory, which looked too dark in the compact but ended up blending nicely. This stuff covers all the flaws and doesn't feel too heavy. The regular price is $8 but I've been buying it on sale for $5.99. I used clinique for a long time but have now switched to this full-time. I get the same results for 1/4 the price of clinique. Dries to a nice, light, powdery finish.

I chose the color cream which is exactly like Nude in Maybelline’s Mouse Foundation. I applied it with a foundation brush. It’s very creamy. I looked like I was wearing a mask and it didn’t seem to become powdery. About a half hour later, it seemed to blend into my skin and looked good. It’s been four hours and I haven’t powdered my face, but I did blot my nose. All-in-all it was a pretty good find for the sale price of $5.87.

Yuk, this cover's nothing. It didn't hide any blemishes, and did nothing to control shine. I wore it once and hated it so much that by lunchtime I had to go to the pharmacy and cover it with a revlon foundation.

I was intrigued by the self-adjusting to light aspect of this foundation, so I decided to try it out. I usually avoid Avon foundations because even their lightest shade is much too dark for me, and Avon seems to prefer using yellow and orange undertones in all of their foundations, instead of neutral. This foundation was orange undertoned, so it didn't look very good on me at all. It offered light to medium coverage, and it spread very well. It was soft and comfortable, although a tad bit on the greasy side. It also rubbed off onto everything that my face came into contact with. It didn't seem to me to adjust to various lighting anymore than the next plain old foundation.

I prefer a tinted moisturiser or sheer liquid, but for extra coverage I really like this and the Porcelain Beige shade is spot-on for me. Nice sleek packaging and it travels very well.

I love Avon's Auto-Focus, Light Adjusting Foundation. It goes on smooth and doesn't cake. It has never broke me out and stays on through out the day. Since my skin tends to be oily if I have to go out at night I sometimes need to touch it up with a powder but over all this is a great foundation! Thanks Avon!

I'm not crazy about this. It looked very thick and cakey on my skin and it wore off in spots and left my face looking shiny after only an hour or so of wear; it was so heavy and un-natural looking. I also think that this was the cause of a breakout. I would not repurchase this, I ended up throwing mine away because it was just awful.
