    I bought this foundation back in January and found it a little too orange for my skin (I tend to look quite washed out in winter, like many others!) so it was consigned to the back of the make-up...

    I was surprised I liked this foundation, because while Max Factor advertises itself as the makeup of movie stars, it always seemed to me like it had got stuck in the silent movie age. Probably...

    Ok so I bought this yesterday and have only used it once so far. I bought it in Warm Almond, since it was the closest match for my skin and I have to say Max Factor's foundation shade range is...

    Like most other reviewers said I think this product would be most suitable for those with already perfect smooth unblemished skin as it provides a sheer thin cover much like tinted moisturizer and...

    I think max factor has gone awfully wrong with their undertones for this line, it doesnt match swatches of my other foundations at all, it has like a pinkyish undertone... smells powdery even...

    I also bought this product when it had a 25% discount. It was £9.99 instead of it's usual £13.99. I can never, I mean ever, find a pale enough foundation for my skin. I am a scottish lass and...

    All the shades are pink undertoned - none of them work for my yellow undertoned skin. In terms of coverage, it's sheer but covers reddness and small blemishes. Texture is liquidy and quite runny. I...

    Horrid, horrid stuff - each shade turns several tones darker on the actual skin. Foundation goes on splotchy & patchy, pigments are unevenly distributed...it's more like a bronzing gel or a tinted...

    First of all, it isn't as greasy as others i've tried. It's water-based which makes it feel lighter. I got the 06 sand shade and it matches my skin perfectly. One comment I have is that it takes a...

    I don't think this is an amazing product. It is incredibly hard to find the right amount of foundation to go on your face, and secondly, it does not look flattering when you apply it. Even though...
