GREAT FOR DRY SKIN

This foundation will always be a must-have for me. It is the best foundation for dry skin as the product is more water-based and gives a dewy, yet natural, finish. I love that the foundation is buildable without looking cakey and after setting it with MAC's Skinfinish Natural, I am good to go! The large 4 oz. bottle is also a great value for your money, but MAC also has a smaller bottle for purchase if you do not use foundation on a daily basis :)

GREAT FOR ALL SKIN TYPES

At first, I was a little skeptical about trying this foundation because I was worried that the matte finish would emphasize the dry patches of skin on my face. However, after experimenting with it for a while, I absolutely fell in love with the foundation. I mix it with Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel, and I get a more moisturizing and smooth feel when I apply the product. I love how flawless my skin looks when the foundation is on and how lightweight it feels!

TOO DEWY/HEAVY, NOT FOR YELLOW UNDERTONES

I have dry skin and I wanted to try Clinique's Moisture Surge CC Cream to see if it evened out my skin tone while providing hydration to my skin. While I did believe the CC cream was moisturizing, I felt the finish was too dewy. In addition, I felt the texture was a little heavy for a CC cream, making it difficult to blend. I was also disappointed that all of the shades seemed to have more of a pink undertone to them. Overall, I do not believe this is the best CC cream for an everyday basis, but it can be used for a day out in the sun as it has a great amount of SPF!
