    Full coverage yet lightweight

    I have been using this foundation for a while and I believe recently the formula changed but it Is still a good product. It matches not just my skin tone but my undertones which is not common.

    My go to foundation

    I use this foundation in the colour Fiji. I find that my skin tone is hard to match but this is pretty spot on. I love how this foundation still looks like skin. It’s medium coverage and dewy even when it’s set with powder but it doesn’t look cakey. I find this a little expensive and the neck of the bottle can end up being messy but this is hands down my favourite foundation

    Full coverage

    This foundation is defiantly one to use for a night out! The full coverage instantly makes your face glow and clears any redness which may appear. A little goes a long way with this foundation!

    I have oily skin with extremely large pores. (my body on the other hand is very very dry) So I have VERY large pores, they look like sesame seeds. This foundation seems to help it. Making my pores much much smaller. The finish on my oily skin is semi matte. After an hour or two, it becomes dewy. When my face extremely oily, this foundation doesn't look blotchy on my skin. Nars is hard to describe on my skin. It's not as natural looking as Bobby Brown. But it's not as full on as Kat von. It's just average, everyday. It's overall a good foundation however with that price range, there are better foundations out there. I'm on my 2nd bottle because of the color match.

    This foundation is NOT sheer or glowy. I actually found it to be quite matte. That being said, I still really like it. It evens my complexion out but doesn't look cakey or like a mask. I'd say it has a medium, buildable coverage.

    My favourite foundation right now! I love how it doesn't feel heavy on the skin but at the same time has medium to high coverage. It is definitely buildable and the shade Barcelona matches me perfectly! I like that I for once do not have to mix 2 shades.

    this foundation is pricey but worth eevry penny. it has good coverage but doesnt look cakey. It has a beautiful glow effect and stays on all day long. I have oilier skin in the summer and I still use it and it is just gorgeous.

    I do love this foundation but it's not right for my oily skin. The coverage and colour match are fantastic for me but I find that halfway through the day my skin looks super oily. I have friends with dry skin who use this and don't have that problem so I know it's because of my skin type. I'm thinking I. Have to switch to NARS matte foundation which should suit me better. I really love everything in this line and the colour match is better for me than most so I'm really hoping the matte one works out!

    You know there is so much to recommend when it comes to this product, but at almost $60 for a bottle, it's extremely overpriced. Because of the ridiculous price, I would not be buying this again, but I do recommend it for people who don't have an issue with the price tag.

    I like that there is a range of yellow golden tones available, which cannot be said for other foundation lines. The coverage is very good, but still not so heavy that it ends up being mask like. I do notice that by the end of the day, it does start coagulating on my skin and doesn't look as good as it did when it was first applied.

    I have gotten compliments on how healthy and glowy I look when I am wearing this foundation. It does provide a very nice smoothness to the skin. Having said that, my drugstore priced Maybelline foundation also does the same thing!

    The name is deceiving, this foundation is dry and finishes off powdery. You need to use the beautyblender sponge and dab quickly for a better finish. A brush leaves residue. If you have dry skin you MUST use a serum or moisturizer that doesn't flake under this foundation. It took me so many trials to get it right but it's worth it because the color Siberia is perfect for fair skin with no beige, red or yellow pigments. It's very neutral. This cost way too much for all the fuss, I PRAY they make a more moisturizing formula for dry skin but keep the color the same! The formula is not that great in coverage but buildable and lasts like all day without minor issues once it's set right. And once it's set you can play with it for touch ups because of the powdery finish. I can't imagine how much more dry the matte version is! There's no glow here if you have dry skin.
