I like Zhen cosmetics and I use their foundation stick almost everyday. However, I am not a fan of their foundation. The color match is great for yellow undertones. A lot of foundations claim to be...

I use this foundation in Bamboo and it's a perfect match in my bathroom. However, in natural lighting, I think it looks a little bit pink on me. For references, I am of Asian descent with strong...

The colors are fantastic. Bamboo matched me perfectly in the winter,Almond in the summer. It did streak a bit easily.

The shade Bamboo is a great match for me (MAC NC30/35). I really like this foundation - it doesn't break me out, keeps me from getting too much of the oilies, is kind where my skin is dry, and I...

I, too, gave into the "for Asians, by Asians" hype and bought this foundation in Bamboo hoping all my problems would be solved. Not so. This product is oily (yet its water-based) and despite...

Color was an exact match, doesn't dry out skin and skin stays matte all day. Great quality for the value!

This product underwhelmed me more than anything. In the period before I discovered mineral foundations I purchased a full-size bottle in Cashew. It's a decent foundation that offers light to medium...
