Acne prone and oily

I was oily (not reeeally oily, though) AND had cystic acne, and when I tried this foundation it didbt last more than 4 hours. I tried it for a long time, but it still didn't work. I also found the finish kinda dull-looking, it really didnt compliment my skin at all.

Great shade selection for pale people with a red undertone. Love the formula and is just enough cover. I have oily/combination skin and this sits really nicely as long as I make sure to moisturise well first and keep the drier parts of my skin exfoliated.

This is a very good foundation, it's medium to full coverage. Very build able. The only thing I ( personally ) don't like about it, it's that it's a little heavy. You can totally tell you're wearing foundation and you can feel it on. It's a bit tacky too so if I touch my face I can feel it but thats just my opinion.

MUST HAVE!!

This to me is a must have foundation I love it so much it is not sheer at all it covers very well, the reason I decided to go for the sheer matte instead of the sheer glow is because since I do get oily around my nose I didn't want anything that was going to make me look more oily but I am very happy with my purchase it is over all a great foundation only downside is it has no pump but I'm fine with that !! This is my 3rd bottle and will keep repurchasing!!

I bought this thinking it was the Sheer Glow foundation. The colour is a perfect match for my skin tone. Every dry patch on my face was emphasised. I understand that this foundation is made for oily skin, and I would definitely use it if my skin was more oily.

Oh. My. God. My new obsession. Absolutely IN LOVE with this foundation! I swear it matches with my skin so well and with the right primer it stays on ALL day. It's my fav ever, and I'm so happy I received it! I'm so happy to have it, it glides on my skin easy and it beautiful.

Got color IQ'd at Sephora and was a perfect match! great for oily skin and coverage is buildable it is a very long wearing foundation for me it required one blot the entire day ..wish it came with a pump

Awesome

Absolutely love this foundation. Comparable to Mac Matchmaster, but better. Its always hard getting the right color for me since I'm slightly dark, but this doesn't give me an ashy finish and has A variety of shades for everyone. I definitely recommend this!

A MISS!

I was recommended this foundation from a girl in Sephora and she applied it and I really liked it. I wanted something that would give my face a matte look and that was really sheer. When I got home it was a different story. I hate the consistency of the product! It is so thick and hard to come out of the bottle that even starting the application was too hard. It needs to come with a pump considering it is $45 CAD. I felt like there was too much yellow in the product after awhile as well and made my face looks slightly ashy. I'm not a really oily girl but i noticed that I MORE oily with this matte product. Maybe I should have tried Nars Sheer glow instead. I returned this item! http://nopainnobeauty.blogspot.ca/

Perfect for oily skin

I decided to pick this product up at Sephora because I heard really great reviews about it being good for oily skin. I love this foundation! I have tried a lot of foundations, low end and high end but this color and finish is perfect for me. I have combination to oily skin and this really makes my face look matte. I have bad skin complete with acne, acne scars and blemishes but this product makes my skin look healthy and fresh. Whenever I wear it, people at work always compliment me on how good my skin looks. I also love the range of shades because I have a lot of yellow in my skin and a lot of colors geared towards tan skin makes me look like a tomato. If you have oily skin or just want a nice matte finish, give this product a chance!
