    Love it

    This foundation is pretty good for the value. I have pretty nice skin, so use very little for a light coverage. If I use too much I feel like it looks cakey. It's pretty well priced though since I paid double for the stuff I used before and this is essentially the same. Overall very good stuff!!

    Meh.

    Meh. All I really have to say. The price on this product is quite nice. Very affordable. You get a lot of product for your purchase. This product actually made me sad. NYX is one of my favourite drugstore brands and this foundation had me really excited, until I put it on. If you have oily skin, like me, this is not the foundation for you. If you have dry skin, like my best friend who loves this product, this is a great foundation for you. The foundation literally feels like you’re just smearing oils onto your face. I guess it really just depends on the skin type. After about an hour of wearing it, no matter how much powder and setting spray I had on, the foundation would come off and would look like I’m sweating when it was really just the oils. Not my best product review.

    Finally a foundation for olive skintones!

    I love this product because I was finally able to find a shade that works with my pale olive skin tone! Every other foundation I've tried gives me an orange colour, but this one matches perfectly for me and I dont end up orange in photos!!!! The price is a bit high for the small bottle and I do find I go through bottles fairly quickly, but I will buy it again and again anyway. The coverage is good. I like that you can use more if you need more coverage. Because it is a liquid formula, I do find my foundation brush leaves streaks, but I just pat my face quickly with my beauty blender after applying with the brush and it looks flawless. It stays on all day. I would 100% recommend this, especially to anyone with an olive skin tone.

    I would continue to buy this product !

    I was sceptical about buying this but I actually really love the light weight feel of this foundation ! and I love that I can build up the foundation to better suit my needs

    ideal for oily skin

    I use this remedy for over a year. one bottle is enough for 3 months with daily use. very suitable for kombenirovannoy skins. my skin is prone to oil, the usual means do not help, this fluid is doing fine. hides imperfections by 50-60%

    Average

    The foundation is cheap but is not high quality. It made my skin look very flaky and dry. Also had to use a lot in order to get good coverage. Would not recommend

    Médiocre

    Je n’est absolument pas aimer ce fontain. Sa couvrance est nul et il ne cache aucune imperfections. Je ne vous le recommande absolument pas si vous avez des imperfections marqué. Aussi, je n’est pas aimer la sensation que procurer le produit une fois mis sur la peau, on ressent qu’il y’a quelque chose sur la peau. Dernière chose, je sais pas si c’est partout dans les magasin, mais j’ai eu énormément du mal à trouver ma couleur, je trouve qu’il n’y a pas beaucoup de variété de couleur.

    AMAZING

    Best foundation I have sever owned, the only downside is that it’s a very small bottle and I feel like the value just isn’t there. But it gives me amazing coverage and has a beautiful matte finish

    love it

    So first off, the colour selection at my Shoppers lacked, but they were mostly sold out every time I’ve tried to repurchase But good news is I’ve found a pretty great dupe for this that’s cheaper

    I know online at NYX they have a larger selection that seems to compliment most skin tones, it’s a fairly large range for a drug store foundation.

    What I loved most about this foundation is that it doesn’t oxidize! I’m pretty pale so most drug store brand foundations I have used I always end up looking slighty.. Like I’ve got a bad spray tan basically, and I also find their lightest shades aren’t that light!, so no matter what I’ve come out with the wrong shade of foundation for me and Looking like a distant relative to an orange. My second favourite thing about this foundation is that it is buildable, The third is the dropper.. It’s the first dropper foundation I’ve used and I got to admit I can’t see myself willingly going back to a regular everyday foundation without a dropper!, it’s cleaner, easier & even though it was slight trial and error with me getting it everywhere it’s a lot easier to apply.. I drop some on my face and than I get to beating!.

    I know this foundation is basically a cult favourite and most people who are into makeup have tried OR heard of it, and now after a few months of use I can totally understand why.

    So the day I bought my first bottle which like I said poor selection, I ended up getting a shade that was slightly too light for me, which was completely shocking like I still can’t believe it. My face I’ll never forget when I applied it, I looked in the mirror and I just kinda ”I look like a ghost”. Though it was easily fixable with some regular powder and bronzer/blush I looked less ghostly, I don’t tan well but I had been in the sun more often since it was around August when I first purchased and I may have had a slight tan compared to my normal winter pasty skin since it seems to work way better now in January.

    Another great thing is it can be sheer or full coverage depending on which is your preference, It shows by the drops on the back how much to use but I just kinda go with it. Personally I like a more medium to full coverage mainly because I have scarring from an incident on my nose that I’m self conscious of and I’ve got freckles, No not the drawn on ones that have been a trend in the last few years but real since I was a kid freckles. Personally like my scars I’m self conscious about my freckles so the better I can cover them the better I feel and this foundation does a pretty great job.

    The finish is like a velvety matte which the site says, and I completely agree. It isn’t dewy but more of a blurring soft semi matte finish, which can be fully matte when powder is on top (Personally I only like matte finishes on my face, I’m not a dewy kinda person!).

    There is no scent with it.
