    Been through more foundations than Victoria's Secret (for you young 'uns, that's what they used to call lingerie!). This was a disappointment. It just sat there. I felt like it should have been...

    Good product for normal/combo skin. This controls oil better than the shine free one. If you can find a shade for you, is a best option for a drugstore brand. By far, I can't recommend this for...

    I like this product, ok. it makes my skintone nice and even, but doesnt cover blemishes well, i also have oily skin and it does nothing against that. The foundation is also very thick and is hard...

    My very first liquid foundation that I bought 2 yrs ago(I used to use powders before 17 and now I'm 19.5). It is soooo thick and difficult to get it out of the bottle! I got it in Beige which is ok...

    This stuff is simply awful. First of all, it is way too thick in consistency and then, when you put it on your face, the stuff is so sheer it's as if you put nothing on at all. I don't like this, I...

    This is very sheer.It does not cover little imperfection very well.If you like medium coverage you will not be pleased. The color in True Ivory is not as neutral as for example Ivory in shine...

    Where is the coverage? I understand some people like sheer, natural coverage but what is the point if it doesn't cover or at least isn't streaky? This is the worst foundation I have ever tried and...

    Is very, very thick and feels like a mask. It makes me feel like my face is heavy with make-up, but over all it is decent, but the packaging sucks. I hate the top and opening! Will not buy again.

    The bottle made a foundation this thick very difficult to get out. I was not pleased with the coverage (not enough), and it disappeared by the end of the day. It just isn't a repurchase for me.

    At first glance this really reminded me of a cheaper version of Clinique's Stay True foundation (yay). I bought this in Nude (I use Stay Nude from Clinique's line), and it really suits my asian...

    I really like this foundation; once applied, it gives me natural, silky coverage comparable to Lancome's Maqui-Libre. This does have a thick texture, but I simply apply a large dot of it to the...

    This was the first foundation I ever tried and I liked it fine until I discovered L'Oreal (Translucide and Mattique) and this is now kind of a distant second to those two products. The coverage is...

    I applied this with a sponge at first and didn't like the results at all. Then later I tried it with my fingers and it looked much much better. It's really a very natural looking product, that is...

    I found this foundation to be very good on my maturing skin; I use the lightest shade, which matches my skin perfectly - not too yellow or pink, just completely neutral. When I shared a room with...

    This product is great if you want an even skin tone, but is not for people with acne because it does not work well covering blemishes. You would need a concealer with it. It is oil-free, so I found...

    This is one of the worst products I have ever used. It felt so caked on. It was spotty and turned my face orange. It looked so fake!

    Oil-slicky. I'd rather save this for the winter when my skin is drier, because this is greasy. I may also use this as a highlighter, as a previous poster suggested. It's also very hard to get...

    This product is best for dry skin. I don't really like the shiny look it gave me. It gives pretty good natural coverage, but you would need to put loose translucent powder on top if you want a...
