So far I’m really liking this foundation. I could see how others might not think this has enough coverage. It’s definitely a light to medium coverage rather than a medium coverage. They have a good color selection with yellow tones, which I like. This foundation has not once made me break out, which is always a plus, unlike the Shiseido Sun Protection Liquid Foundation SPF 42 PA+++. It’s also a lot easier to buy. You don’t have a million pesky sales women. It’s definitely a winner. Edit: I just looked at the website and it does say light coverage.

I bought this during a sale at Kohl's, so it was under 15 USD for me.This fdn is great-I work at Lowe's in the electrical dept,so I am under hot lights all day, and my face stays intact.I found the Light/Warm 3 to be a good match for my NC20 skin.I apply with the Flirt skunk brush for a light and seamless application. Points off for the glass bottle and the fdn does flow out a bit too freely,but other than that....Great stuff,no breakouts,glowy finish,etc.
I will not be buying the higher end stuff any more :)Oh, and no discernable scent either,unlike the parent company *cough*EL*cough*

This is a pretty decent foundation. It isn't medium coverage to me tho, it's more of a good light coverage foundation. It's good for days that I want to go with a lighter foundation (like in the summer). It isn't a HG for me, but I love to mix foundations, and it's good for mixing with other foundations because the color is such a great match for me. I would give it 5 lippies for matching my complexion. It also doesn't accent flakies, it's oil free, and doesn't slide off my face.

This could easily be a HG for someone that loves lighter coverage.

Like was mentioned, you buy this at Kohl's (Ashley Judd promotes it for the store). Anyway, I bought medium/cool and I was skeptical at first because I don't have good success with foundations. Well, I absolutely love this product. It has a perfect smooth consistancy and covers nicely. The color matched my skin tone. And didn't wear off. It didn't crease or blotch up either! It feels like a $70 foundation for only $16.50!!

My face is super oily and prone to breakouts. After reading reviews I thought I give this a shot. My only problem is trying to figure out why I never knew there was something out there for me! This stuff is awesome! It is not cakey, but can cover blemishes...so it so buildable. It doesn't make my face oiler. It doesn't rub off easy. My face still gets oily, but my skin is oily even with no makeup. I just blot with oil absorbant sheets. But now I only have to blot a couple times per day instead of a couple of times every 2 hours. So that's good. Also, I "look" like I am wearing way less makeup. This is so awesome, it makes me feel good about myself. :)

oh my freakin gawd...ok so i've always had problems finding the right shade and the right consistency...i have a lot of yellow in my skin and fdns always either end up being way too pink or too orange (i'm NC35, stila 40 watts kinda)...finally found the right shade with this stuff, i got 07 medium/warm. and the finish is perfect, not too matte and not too dewy/oily...perfect for my combo skin...the only thing i'm wary about is whether or not this is going to make me break out...we shall see, but so far so good...and the price is awesome! i got it for $14.85 because it was on sale...SCORE!! ahh i love this stuff...i wish the packaging though was in a pump form but whatever, that's like not even that big of an issue for me...anyways...love this! go to the store and try it out for yourself

This foundation is packaged in a very sleek and contemporary way. The texture and coverage rivals that of very expensive dept. store brands. It's so smooth and great for my combination skin. There are lots of colors available, too. It is medium coverage that lasts throughout the day. I think this will be my HG foundation!

After reading reviews of this product, I decided to try it. I was pleasantly surprised! This is a nice, light makeup that makes my skin very even-toned and luminous. I really like this one. I am acne-prone, and it's only been a few days, so we'll see if I break out or not...I have my fingers crossed.

This is a great foundation at a reasonable price 16.50. I find it blended well and covered minor flaws without being heavy. I have fairly oily skin and did not have to touch up my powder all day, other than my nose. I apply this with a sponge, about a dime size all over then stipple (press sponge onto an area) that needs more coverage. American Beauty does have a nice display which makes it easy to find a shade that matches, I wear 03 light/warm. They also tend to throw in a few samples with a purchase, currently Kohl's is having a sale by 2 products (from any line) and get the 3rd 1/2 off. I think anyone with combo skin would like this product, if not it can be returned. My only complaint is the glass bottle, a good way to lose product by spilling or breaking.

I think this is a great foundation- it wears well, doesn't look patchy on my dry -cheeked combo skin, and is nice and light (but still has remarkably good coverage.) The only thing that makes me continue my hunt for the perfect foundation is the shades available-I have extremely pale skin with a slight yellow undertone, and 01 was far too yellow for me. *Sigh*

This is the perfect foundation for me. I was used to paying $40 for clarins foundation until I ran out one day and on a whim decided to try the Perfectly Even Natural Finish Foundation from Kohls. My skin is in great shape and I only need light coverage to even out my skin tone. I've been using this product for two weeks now and don't have any negative comments to make about it. I love it!

I chose Fair/Cool 02 too, & it's a pretty good match (I'm EXTREMELY fair & I usually have a hard time finding a foundation color that isn't too orangy or makes me look washed out). I use my Philosophy airbrushed mineral powder on top of this foundation and it's absolutely perfect. (I tried the accompanying American Beauty powder, but it was too dark-why is that)?!? Anyway, I find that I do not have to touch up all day w/ this foundation; gives me flawless looking skin; no breakouts, irritation or aggrivation of my rosacea; oil-free too and pretty cheap: $16.50 for a 1oz bottle @ Kohl's.

I am in love with this! I am really pale and have the hardest time finding the appropriate color for my skin (even Prescriptives, who has like 50 colors to mix to find the perfect shade couldn't find one light enough for me) but 02 Fair/Cool is my exact color and goes and stays on perfectly.

I love this foundation. I wanted to get the other brand at Kohls but they were out of my color (the consultant was really helpful with finding me the right shade), so I got this one instead. It stays on and covers without being cakey, goes on great with a foundation brush. THe packaging is ok, nice and simple but hard to open w/ wet hands. Also, the american beauty consultant loaded me up with samples of other products.

I absolutely LOVE this foundation. I have been searching and searching for the right foundation and I think that I have found it! Its incredibly simple to apply, very silky smooth. Perfect coverage, not too much, but just what I needed. And it stayed looking great and I looked glowy without looking greasy all day. I never got too oily (and it was humid today) or too dry. I never needed a touch up and the 02 Fair Cool is a great color for me. Although I need the 01 Fair Warm in their other foundation but I have not tried that one yet.
