I like Laura Mercier TM better than this. The LM gives better coverage and is more layerable. The color of LM is also less peachy than the Nude and Improved shade I tried, Light Linen. It feels...

I was disappointed by this and ended up giving it away. I had it in Linen, and while I really liked the scent and the color blended well with my skin, the product itself was hard to blend in. I...

Really love this foundation, which is more like a tinted moisturizer, with slightly more coverage. I preferred this to the Laura Mercier TM-looked more natural, was less than half the price, and...

I love this product! I am a teen, so I don't like to wear heavy foundation. My skin is pale with pink tones so I needed something very sheer. This glides on perfectly and makes it look like I'm not...

I must say I didn't like this much for several reasons. I was looking for a sheer foundation to replace my beloved Prescriptives Unmakeup which has been discontinued. I was hoping this was it as...

I bought this product after reading all these reviews, and I'm pleased that it lived up to the testimonials. I have dry, pale, tending-towards-pink skin. Even though I moisturize before putting...

This has become my HG! For a TM it provides a fair amount of coverage and evens out my ruddy skintone. I have a terrible time finding a found. color match as I'm very pale and pinky/blue undertoned...

I received a sample of this in Nude. I liked the creamy texture of it, and it smoothed out my skintone. However, after a few hours of wearing it, I noticed that it was very shiny (I don't have...

Love this tinted moisturizer. The squeeze-tube packaging means you waste little and keep the contents clean. Not thrilled that there's fragrance in here, but at least it's a nice fragrance. It...
