I've been a faithful user of the original oil-free foundation and recently switched over to Virtual Matte. It's been about a month now and I'm still loving this. It took a while to find my shade...

I have oily skin, so this is great for me so far. Prescriptives has a great color selection. You will have seamless foundation. This provides good coverage (med. to full to be exact) and really...

This actually is one amazing foundation! I have looked high and low for a foundation that actually has coverage, but is not too heavy for the summer months, and looks very natural. I have found...

<font face=verdana>*edit: it's too difficult to find a perfect match in this or EL ideal matte - Px Fresh Gold is a tad dark for my NC30/35 skin (works only when i use self-tanner). I now *heart*...

This is the best foundation for my skin. I have combo skin (normal-oily) and live in a hot and humid climate. I also have blemishes and uneven skin tone. This covers beautifully, has great staying...

I have mixed feelings about this foundation. For a matte makeup, it looks more natural and not as flat as most. I can't get the coverage thin enough, it's very heavy. It covers my broken...

I bought this since I've been a faithful user of Prescriptive's earlier line "Oil-Free" for 6 years (the Virtual Matte is a reformulated version of Oil-Free). The positive thing about Virtual...

The shade I choose was Fresh Vellum..which matches perfectly..I do notice that Px foundations do contain alot more yellow in them. Which is fine for me since it does hide some of the redness I...

This has got to be one of the worst foundations I've ever tried. Not only wasn't it matte (ok, it was for maybe 15 min.) but it felt so heavy. It felt like a mask and after a couple of hours it...

I use Prescriptives Traceless and Virtual Skin, so the Virtual Matte was VERY heavy on my skin. The color was perfect, but I even felt like I was wearing a mask when I smiled or squinted my eyes. ...

I loved this foundation when it was applied in the department store because the finish was so smooth and it really did look matte and made my skin virtually glow under the department store lights. ...

I think so far this one will be my HG for a fuller coverage foundation. I like the texture of this as i put it on, it doesnt dry as quickly as my Maquicontrole which is a big plus... (Maquicontrole...

I'm oily/combo Mac NC35 and used Virtual Matte in Fresh Gold, which I think is the best match so far. It's definitely not sheer coverage, so be careful not to apply it too thick or it may look too...
