I have VERY OILY skin so applying this over my face was not a good idea. I could see the oil this product contains while dabbing or blending on my face. My pores were more obvious and after just half and hour on me I had an awful shine on my face and a cakey look. I used a tissue to remove the excess oils after applying but it didn't help.

I don't know if this would work for dry skins but definitely is horrible on oily ones.

Very gross texture. It caked up in the creases in the corner of my eyes . I didn't even know I had creases there until I used this stuff...

I really wanted to like this product, but I just can't. The color match was perfect for me...not orange at all or anything. But the texture and look of it on my face is just gross. It made every tiny little imperfection on my face seem huge. And it looks cakey and dry.

I had been using this for a while until I realized this is NOT an oil free foundation and I kept breaking out. Overall I do like the color selection and the coverage but I had to stop using it, I hope Avon starts catering more to oily skin people.

SPF15 in mine, not 10, but otherwise it is the same product. I really like this foundation, it is definitely worth the price, which is quite cheap, as most avon products are. I use the light beige shade and it is a perfect match, it fills in all my pores very nicely, and it doesn't make my skin look dry.
I would recommend anyone to try this, and since it's avon, even if you don't like (or get the wrong shade) it is very easy to return or exchange.

Nice coverage - I'd say medium at best. I use Nude for my NC20 skin and I think it's a good match. The formula is not as slick and slippery as Revlon's New Complexion makeup. It stays on a bit better and Avon has scads more colors than Revlon. The price is good - can get for around $10 or less sometimes with a sale. Very pleased with this. Edited 05/23/09 - Coverage wasn't up to par and color was eh. Actually threw this away and replaced it with Cover FX.

This is a really great foundation. More coverage than a powder, but still light feeling on your face. I prefer this type to liquid foundations. I definitely use this in the summer because it stays pretty matte on me.

I really like this; I have it in the Almond shade (my skin tone is fairly light with pinkish undertones). The foundation blends very well with my skin and looks very natural. Coverage is medium- takes care of minor redness and evens things out nicely. I don't find it drying on my combo skin or oily in the T-zone even without powder. The only reason I didn't give it 5 lippies is the coverage isn't very buildable on me and I didn't find it layered well with concealer. This is a good for those weekend or casual days when you don't want to spend much time on make-up.

I was really looking forward to trying this product. I was dissappointed. I broke out the first time I used it. I loved the way it went on my skin, but it stayed in that creamy feeling never feeling like it turned to the powder, so I actually had to put my own loose powder on over it. The color matched my skin tone really well.

This make up is really good but I started breaking out and you know. But, it would smooth out my face and actually hide acne and tone out your skin really good. I got my colour in cream and I have combo skin. So If my face would just work with it I would definatly get this again.

I did not like this make-up....The first time I used it, it was ok.....then I used it again and noticed dry patches and it was like rubbing and flaking off. It would accumalate around my nose and look very heavy no matter how much I blended. I had to give up on it....but for $7 it wasn't an expensive mistake. I have combo skin and it just didn't work I think this may work for younger skin.

I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this foundation. This foundation blends beautifully into my skin with minimal effort. The coverage is light to medium but buildable. It feels like Im not wearing any foundation at all!! For about ten dollars this is definitely a great deal!!

This was just delivered by my Avon rep this week and I absolutely love it. My skin tends to be oily and it's been a nightmare finding a reasonably priced foundation that didn't end up making my face look like I had covered it in cooking oil! This foundation is reasonably priced and comes in a wide array of colors. The compact is very stylish, has a built in mirror, and a compartment for the applicator sponge. The creamy foundation is applied with a sponge and goes on smoothly. It leaves a matte finish. It does a good job covering light to medium imperfections, but I would not recommend it for someone trying to cover severe blemishes or discolorations. It doesn't leave my face feeling, caked or slimy. It lasts all day and at the end of the day it's not greasy looking. I love it. I will continue to use this along with the Avon Personal Match powder.

My new favorite foundation. The coverage is buildable, but I like it fairly light. It covers nicely without looking heavy at all. The foundation melts into the skin and provides a nice matte-ish finish, but it's not drying at all. My skin is very oily in places - forehead especially, but this foundation works very well with my skin. Normally I have to blot throughout the day, even with oil-free, mattifying products, but with this I didn't have to blot once. Love it!

This is a very interesting type of product. It is right in between a pressed powder and a foundation. Comes in a compact like a pressed powder, but it has a creamy consistency which you apply with a sponge. The sponge is located at the bottom compartment -rather convenient. Even though it is a creamy foundation I found it to be surprisingly lightweight. You can use it by dabbing small amounts of product onto the sponge and distributing the cream right as it is. Or alternatively you can use a wet sponge -in which case you will get a more sheer application. It provides a rather matt finish, so I have no problem using it on my oily areas, but it won't feel tight on the dry parts either. Surprisingly, it provides rather respectable amount of coverage. It can easily cover up small blemishes and redness. But for anything major you would need a thicker cover up. I find this product most useful when I don't have many problems to cover up on my face but I just need to even things out before I face the world. It is a very practical product for those times when you just want to quickly and lightly even out your skin and go. Looks very natural. And it's so compact and convenient, you can carry it with you everywhere. Also suitable to use during summer since it has SPF 10. I bought it in Almond, which is a light-to-medium color. As soon as I bought it, my mother and sister tried and loved it also. I had to order three more. Overall: Nice.
