Jane Iredale

This is my go to foundation. I don't like the look or feel of heavy coverage , so I'm not certain you'll like this is you want super heavy coverage.

I love everything about this. It's apparently good for skin and it feels like it's good for skin when it's on. It's a product you can use all year round. The packaging is fancy and sturdy. The sponge it comes with actually works! I didn't ever bother with a primer yet my skin always looked great wearing this. It's super quick and easy to apply and has great staying power.

I am using a different brand at the moment because my last one finished and the colour on the case wasn't my actual colour. I threw away the refill pan with the colour on the bottom and have since forgotten it. Where I live I'd have to order online and guess my shade, so I'll wait until I'm near a bricks and mortar store selling it and it'll be the first thing I get!!

I also really like their lip balm although looking on their website it seems like the lemon one I used to use has been discontinued.

Dream Tint did not work for me. It made me itch and the scent was overpowerful. Would not purchase again.

I bought this product from the Great Barrington location where the product is from. I thought that the sales people would have known more about the product. I bought it because I happen to love the eyebrow duo that I bought at a spa in Saratoga Springs. The owner raved about the other J. I. products. I was so happy to see the store in Great Barrington. The sales reps went through a couple different testers to match my tone. I don't know if it was the lighting or what. But once I got home and put it on I was totally dumbfounded. It didn't match my tone (olive) and it looked yellow going on. And the coverage was horrible. It's actually splotchy when I put it on. I tried with a brush and my finger tips. It sat on my face. By the end of the day it was dried out on my skin and ultimately left dry patches so I stopped using it after about a month. - Mind you- I take great care of my skin with facials, vampire facials, peels and micro. I use medical grade moisturizers and this product was drying my skin. I had explained to the representatives - Jane Iredale's reps mind you - that because of my age (53) I was looking for something that would not dry my skin and would provide some sort of nutrients to help fight the aging war. I bought it 11/2018 and absolutely hate it.

I'll preface this by saying this is a very sheer coverage foundation. If you're looking for medium to high coverage, this isn't for you. That being said, I don't like medium or high coverage for every day use - i find it looks too made up and mask-like. This is a great natural looking light coverage.

I chose suntan, which is great match for me. I love the feel of it, it doesn't feel like a typical foundation at all when you apply it. It feels more like a gel moisturizer, both in terms of texture and the hydration it provides. The finish is definitely not matte, however it isn't shiny or oily either. It just leaves your skin looking hydrated and soft.

This doesn't pill or oxidize, break me out etc. If you're looking for a more natural look and don't mind the (imo hefty) price tag, this would be a great product to try!

This product didn't work for me. It's a shame, because it was very long wearing, offered very subtle and natural looking coverage, and just made my skin look almost airbrushed! I dislike the sponge applicator - how are you supposed to keep that clean - and it's pretty pricey. However my problem with this is that it severely dries out my skin after just one use. That isn't exclusive to this product though, i've noticed all mineral sunscreens severely dry me out/don't work for me. If you don't have issues with physical sunscreens i'd definitely recommend giving this a try! Just note that if you get translucent it will definitely have a whitecast/make you look pale.
