Good foundation for the price!
This foundation does what it says. I have an incredibly oily t-zone, with normal to combo skin on the rest of my face. Most foundations literally melt off of my face within a couple of hours of applying and oxodize to make me look like an oompa loompa right out of the factory ...However this foundation actually stays put and doesn't oxodize into funky colors! it doesn't move around or melt away, w...read morehich is a MIRACLE for me! There is some oil break through after wearing it for 5-6 hours, but it's minimal and nothing a quick touch up won't fix. The best way to apply this is definitely with a damp sponge. This foundation is supppeeeerrr thick and very very hard to blend. Using your fingers will get you no where and make you look cakey, and using a brush is even worse. A damp sponge works like a charm though! It really helps lighten the foundation and blend it out like a dream. The packaging is also a huge pain. Since this foundation is so thick, it's very difficult to get it out. You have to shake it so hard to get anything out and most times you end up with way more product than needed. There are a lot of people who dislike this foundation because they claim it feels like a mask and is way too thick. The key to avoid a cake face with this is to use a very light hand and work FAST as it dries very quickly. The only other con I can think of is the color selection. Most of the colors are very pink toned, so yellow toned gals may have a tough time finding a good match. Overall I think this foundation is a great deal for the price and a definite must have for all oily skin girls!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Stays on all day!
This foundation lasts all day and is oil free which is nice because I have really oily skin. I would say it has medium coverage so you still need concealer for any blemishes, which is to be expected. The only down side is that there isn't a colour that matches me perfectly so I need to buy two and mix them, which I don't really mind since my skin tone changes colour with the seasons so they get used up.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Great formula, BUT...
The actual formula is great, it lasts and lasts and lasts and lasts. I have VERY oily skin and even if I don't set it with powder the oil doesn't show, now because it's so long lasting you have to be careful when removing it, it sticks to your face like super glue so you need an EXTREMELY powerful cleanser and toner to make sure you remove it completely, if you don't you will surely break out (I l...read moreearned this the hard way). Also the color range isn't the best, 98% of the shades lean towards pink undertones which is terrible for me (I have a yellow undertone). I use the shade closest to my skin tone (300 golden beige) and even though I'll never find one that actually matches I'll never stop using this foundation because it delivers in every other department.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Great if applied correctly!
I bought this foundation to use everyday instead of my coveted Tarte liquid foundation that I'm trying to conserve! At first, I hated this foundation! As other users have said, it is VERY thick but for me that wasn't the main issue. I tried applying with a fluffy foundation brush and it went on horribly cakey. The finish was terrible and I couldn't get it un-streaky or properly blended. I had all ...read morebut given up on this product until I saw a YouTube video that suggested applying it with a damp beauty blender...ah hah! Applying with the beauty blender completely changed the look and coverage of this foundation. It now blends easily and has a natural satin/matte finish. It wears all day with the exception of oily patches around my nose, but I don't oil blot because, as a teacher, I just don't have a spare minute in my day to fuss with makeup (if I did, it might make all the difference!) This is a great everyday foundation with great color match capabilities and very long wear.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Love this
I can't say enough great things about this foundation. I'm in the lightest shade and it fits me perfectly. It blends in really we'll and gives me medium coverage. The coverage I think is perfect because it evens out and perfects my skin while leaving it natural and uncakey. I have super oily skin and this foundation keeps me matte. This product makes my skin feel smooth and velvety. It feels like nothing's there.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 8 people said helpful

great product
this is a great little foundation. Definitely one of the best drugstore foundations I've tried. It is more medium-full coverage and is great for oily skin. My skin still gets oily after a few hours, but this is still pretty amaze.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 4 people said helpful

Great for my oily skin!
I really love this drugstore foundation. The coverage is light and not cakey. Its not drying like a lot of other drugstore oily skin foundations. The coverage is medium but can be built. It goes on really nice with either a brush or a beauty blender.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

I'm Caramel!!!
I absolutely love this foundation!!! For years I have used BareMinerals (warm tan) and I love it but it was getting a lil pricey for me so I wanted to find a foundation that was inexpensive but delivered everything I was looking for! I was looking for a foundation to help control my oily skin but didn't have the matte look... Something with great coverage and that I didn't have to use a primer... ...read moreAnd could really last all day because of so many products out there to say they last all day or for certain amount of time and they don't deliver!!! This product does everything I want and then some and he actually matches my skintone closer then the bareMinerals ever did I absolutely love it I get so many compliments about how flawless my skin looks and it's amazing!!!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Best one I've had yet
This has been my longest standing go-to foundation. I stumbled across it accidentally while borrowing a freind's foundation and never went back! Has good staying power, coverage, and oil control is an added bonus! This product comes in a vast array of colors making it versatile for almost ANYONE! Has never caked up on my face, and seems to hide blemishes halfway decently without a concealer undern...read moreeath! I set mine with a little bit of compressed powder on top to keep the shine at bay, but that's just my oil-face anxiety obsession! A MUST TRY!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 6 of 6 people said helpful

Wonderful
This foundation gives great coverage. I have some acne and have stopped putting on concealer when I wear this foundation. I top it with powder and it stays put.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
