    Ok for acne prone skin

    Overall an okay product, it did not cause me to break out which is great, but it does feel a bit drying on the skin. Coverage is medium to high and the best way to apply is to use a wet beauty blender.

    Really wanted to love

    I was so excited to try this after seeing so many good reviews, and while I do like the foundation I cant help but feel a little disappointed. I know it is full coverage but I feel as though it is quote heavy on my face and can make my pores look worse. My color match was not great so a better match may help. I would try again with this but I was expecting more.

    I feel like the only one who didnt like it

    I feel like the only one on the planet who didn't think this product was anything special. It was cakey and thick and clung to every dry patch or imperfection I had. I was disappointed.

    Great foundation but not a favourite

    This foundation gets the job done, with great buildable coverage. It has a pretty finish on the skin, but for the price I was expecting more. It blends well, but I found throughout the day it did not hold up well in my t-zone. I would still recommend this foundation, as the coverage is great, but it is not my favourite foundation.

    Tricky to apply but stays in place

    Double wear foundation needs a different application process to other foundations and the dotting method simply doesn't work here, the foundation starts to set very quickly so needs to be worked from the nose outwards in circular motions. This foundation definitely needs moisturiser or primer underneath to allow the foundation to move easily over the skin. I have found it tricky to get used to this application process and then tricky to get used to other foundations again afterwards! The coverage looked a bit powdery and despite getting the colour checked by a rep, I felt it looked very pale on most of my face but fine on my jawline. Perhaps this foundation doesn't take well to uneven skin tones. It stayed in place well but I given the price and end look I won't be switching from my usual foundation any time soon.

    It’s really good but not the best

    It really does last all day without wear, I have oily skin and this was perfect. The only down side is that when it dries on your face you can feel it all day. It can also be quite drying on the skin too so wouldn’t recommend for dry skin

    Great long-lasting coverage!

    I typically choose high-coverage and long-lasting foundations and concealers such as CoverFX and DermaBlend, but I've been trying to test out other products on the market to compare to the 'industrial strength' makeup I've been using.

    This foundation does provide buildable coverage which is long-lasting, although it does require touchups during the day. There are powders to complement the liquid formulations, although the colours do not necessarily match up.

    To be honest, for the price, I would rather rely on my 'go to' products, but I think this may be suitable for most people looking for a quality foundation/concealer.

    Not a holy grail per se, but good!

    This foundation is good! In my opinion, it isn't the holy grail that many people make it out to be, and I'm not sure if I would say that it is worth the price but there is nothing particularly wrong with it. Nice dewy finish that can easily be matted out with a bronzer and was able to last me through a full school day no problem. Also seemed to aid in healing any cuts I had on my face back when I used it.

    Good if you have flawless skin

    I've tried this foundation a few times and always love it when I first start a new bottle. It glides across the face to create a flawless, smooth finish. For the first hour or two my skin always looks airbrushed because of the amazing texture of this foundation. But I find that after a few hours it begins to oxidize on my face (turns it orange!), and that is NOT fun. I feel paranoid wearing this because I'm never sure if it's going to be a 10/10 or a 2/10. If my skin is super hydrated and has no acne it looks pretty good, but the second there is any uneven texture it looks awful. This is NOT a good foundation if you have oily, uneven skin.
