I really like Virtual Skin! It is one of my favorite foundations. It is a sheer foundation that you can build a little if you'd like. I found it very natural looking and found a great color match. It also didnt make me break out. Great buy!

Oh how I WISH this came in a tube like the Traceless Foundation. What a shame -- but beyond that, I really am enjoying this foundation. The color selection is beautiful, and Real Vellum (y/o) matches my skin tone very well. It sinks right into my skin and, best of all, keeps my skin feeling great all day. Many foundations I have used don't hold up through a long day, but this one does. This is especially challenging this time of year when colder temps and indoor heating are making my skin quite persnickety (sometimes will flake, get red/irritated when I try and exfoliate) -- this foundation is definitely NOT adding to these problems, so I believe it is non-irritating for combo/sensitive skin. Good light-medium coverage, not at all heavy, easy to blend, and blushes go on well over it. Works wonderfully with Light Y/O concealer! Worth my $32.

This is a great foundation that lasts all day on my oily skin (though it has a slight tendency to turn orange at the edges if I don't blend well). It is a bit difficult to apply compared to other foundations because it is "gel-based" (actually, I think this is probably marketing hype, but the texture is a little different than other foundations I've used). The color selection is fantastic. However, I noticed today that the Virtual Skin shades are darker than the 100% Oil Free shades with the same names. So if you're vampire-pale like me, and you can't get a good match with the Virtual Skin, try the Oil Free.

I had the "colour match" done for this foundation. It's hard to match skin that makes Casper look tan! After all that, the SA put the foundation on and I was pleased. But once I got it home it went on like glue and chalk. I tried and tried but it never seemed to work out. It didn't cause breakouts or anything, it just looked like paste on my face, and kind of felt like it.

The foundation is sheer to medium coverage and I believe it's supposed to be a semi-matte finish. I must say that the colour selection makes me very happy. Wide range so you can find your colour. The coverage was nice. Not too thick or heavy but enough to balance out uneven skintone. Hardly a smell and very light on. You also receive a fair size bottle for the amount you pay so it doesnt feel like you're getting ripped off. The only little hesistance is the texture. Though it smooths out as the day wears on, it seems to take some time to settle to the light powder finish. It was a bit 'wet chalk' like as it dried. Other than that, it's a great foundation to try if you want to find your exact colour with sheerness.
