Foundation Reviews

Peaches 'n cream-complected young people need not apply, but the rest of us need a little help evening out skin tone, hiding sun damage, and masking enlarged pores.  That's where a proper foundation comes in.  There are two main ways to use this product: mineral powder (praised for its non-comedogenic and natural sun blocking properties) and liquid formulations (best for creating a dewy glowing look).  Be sure to change your usual shade by season to best match your natural tone.  If you can't decide between two shades, go for the darker one to give your complexion warmth and mask flaws better.

ChickAdvisor members give props to powdered foundations from Bare Escentuals bareMinerals, MAC Studio Fix Powder plus Foundation, and Maybelline New York Mineral Power Loose Foundation.  High marks for liquid formulas belong to Maybelline New York Dream Liquid Mousse, Marcelle New-Age Anti-Wrinkle Makeup, and Make Up For Ever HD Invisible Cover Foundation.

I'm so surprised by this product! It's one of the cheapest yet best foundations I've ever purchased. If you need a lot of coverage this may not be for you but I think it's great for everyday use if you want something lighter just to brighten up your face a bit

This will last all day,especially if you use a primer with it. Lots of shades. Kind of pricey for a drug store foundation. But it you need your make up to last all day this is a good choice.

I am so in love with this foundation. I did use the shade finder to find my perfect shade and it worked perfectly! The shade matches my skintone so well that it really looks like I'm not wearing anything. The feeling of this foundation is so lightweight and luminizing.
