Perfect foundation for me!

I got this foundation a little while ago and I have to say, I absolutely love it. I'll try to cover everything important about it so you guys can choose whether to try it or not. :) I'll start with where to get it and how much. You can get this from a local drugstore. I got it from Walmart for $7.00, which is a fantastic price if you ask me, considering lots of drugstore foundations average at around $12 ish. The packaging is super cute and pretty high quality. It has these pretty vines on it that initially attracted my attention. It's made out of thick plastic and it holds 1.19 fl ounces, which is the average amount for a foundation. It has a pump that squirts out a little bit at a time, which I love because it makes it kind of hard to get too much of the product. The color range is pretty nice in my opinion. They don't have much for dark skin, but they have plenty for fair skin. I consider myself to be pretty pale and I usually get the lightest to second lightest in foundation shades, but in this one I'm the third lightest which surprised me because most brands don't have much for super fair skin. The formula is quite nice and a bit thicker than I expected. It doesn't run all over the place and make a mess. I used a round top Sonia Kashuk buffing brush and it blended really nicely into my skin and it had a nice matte finish once it set. I didn't use a primer because I was quite intrigued by how it said "One step foundation is your primer, concealer, foundation, and powder." I have what I like to call bipolar skin, but other people call it combination skin. Most days my skin is oily in all places except for around my nose, but with this foundation the oily places weren't shiny and the dry places weren't patchy. I really liked the finish of it. It's easy to apply, it has light to medium coverage and it's quite buildable, which I like. It's really natural looking and you could still see my little freckles through the foundation. However, it did cover the redness and imperfections of the skin and balanced out the discoloration I had in some areas. I'm really impressed with this foundation and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes inexpensive, drugstore aka easy to just run out and get on a trip to the store, high quality, cruelty free products.

Good for drugstore

When I first opened this, the pump squirted VERY liquidy and I kept pumping until it was working fine and wasted like 5 pump worth of foundation. I was disappointed in that so BE SURE TO SHAKE BEFORE PUMPING. Other than that issue, I got fair and actually loved this. It was a consistency of a mousse and liquid and when I blended with fingers, it gave a medium coverage which I love! The color didn't look orange, this concealed blemishes and scars, and stayed for hours! I think this is perfect for an everyday foundation and will repurchase. There's so muh product and the pump squeezes only a small dab to control how much u need. I only need about 2 or 1 pumps for my entire face for this product. This foundation dries matte and smooth on my skin. I think this is great for a natural everyday look.

Fantastic :)

Now I must admit I just started using it due to the price as well as I at first didn't like it but while playing around with different application techniques I found a way to make it flawless. To be completely truthful I cannot say if this makes me break-out or not because I have a hormonal disorder called PCOS. This being said I take a hormone pill for my skin so I have no right to say if it does that to my face or not. But anyway, It's lightweight and not oily surprisingly, It does set matte, but I still add a light amount of powder just in case. I would recommend it for sure.

I use the color fair in this foundation. It blends well to me, and it lasts long with full coverage. I only need to use a little bit of concealer with this, i use it on top of sheer envy primer, and it lasts all day. Now for the cons, well I have dry skin, and sometimes it gets flakey. I have also found that whenever i use it with a foundation brush or stippling brush it makes me look dry, and cakey, BUT when i use my fingers it gives me a flawless look and works very well. Overall i like it and its my first bottle, i may or may not be getting a new bottle but it depends, because I am still trying to find a good drugstore brand foundation.

For drugstore makeup, its good.

I was surprised at how smoothly this went on my skin, and how well it blended. It didn't conceal very much, I'd say light-medium coverage, but it was the perfect color for my skin. I got 362, Light. I do prefer my Makeup Forever HD invisible foundation, but if I run out, i will use this up first before buying more.

pretty good for a drugstore foundation

goes on smooth, blends well, cant really "feel it" on your face.. But, i personally love full coverage and long lasting foundation and this did not fufill my needs /: but if u don't need or want full coverage or long lasting this would be for u! I am also kinda oily so wasn't that great for oily types either.

I really like this product

Goes on smooth and blends well. I use the fair and it is a great match. It looks really dark in the bottle so I'm not sure why I decided to try it. Even on my wrist it looked dark and way yellow/orange. I am glad I decided to give it a try. The color actually blends and dries into a nice slightly yellow fair shade. It is like a mousse and liquid in one. It last a long time too. I use it with the sheer envy primer and am set all day. Good stuff! Light to medium coverage. Really good at hiding redness and I used it as a undereye concealer as well and it wasn't half bad at hiding my dark circles. Over all I am pleased.

This foundation is really good to use if you know how to use it correctly. First you should apply the 'Sheer Envy Primer' evenly around your entire face, next you apply this foundation, then you should dab on a little 'Glamoflauge' to places that may need extra attention. Once that is done your face will look flawless. My skin would look rather uneven without this foundation because of the 'Glamoflauge,' but this evens out the tone beautifully.

I bought this product about three weeks ago when I was looking for a new cover up as I had just ran out of my old one. Most of the time drug store foundation turns me orange as i'm extremely pale (with of course no desire to tan) and when I first used it I was very impressed. At first glance I really thought it would be very cakey and clog up my pores or wouldn't cover up my red undertones and dark circles under my eyes. Instead of making me regret my purchase I was very happy I bought it due to it actually being very light weight on my skin, doing a very nice job of covering up all my problem areas and best of all never once caused me to break out. I tend to set this product with the powders due to my oily complexion and it just works great for every day use.
