I have just fallen in love with this foundation! Today was my first time useing it and I am so impressed! I've now had it on for 7 hours and I have no shine (I have normal to oily skin), its all still in place and looks exactly how it did when I first applied it. The coverage is great, medium to full and definitely buildable. It feels really nice on my skin, not thick or cakey and it's very breathable. The colour I chose is true ivory and it's a perfect match for me. I was so happy about this as I always have a hard time trying to get a great match. It lasts so long and it's so cheap! I'll definitely be buying this again

This foundation is a recent discovery. I have heard so many people talk about this product before but I never really understood what the hype was all about. I wasn't out to find a new foundation but I saw it was on clearance for $5 down from $20 so I thought I'd give it a try.
I love this foundation and it is my new "Holy Grail" foundation. Who knew a matte finish is now my best friend! It leaves a beautiful flawless matte finish, blends well even though it dries quite quickly. Build able coverage and doesn't cake up at all. Perfect for winter as it is quite a heavy feeling foundation.
The only downside is that it can be hard to take off at the end of the day as I find that it gets stuck in my pores. It does last all day, I found it great to apply with a sponge, I tried applying with my fingers but it didn't work to well with my skin.
Tips: Always apply with a brush or sponge
I absolutely love this foundation! It has great coverage and would recommend it as a great dupe for high end products at that cheaper price! I find that if I'm having a good skin day I have no need for concealer, I can just use this product on it's own with some powder in my shiny areas. A primer or something similar is needed for a full lasting day, if it is used with a primer for me it normally last my full day of University (6-8 hours) with no touch up and I have combination skin.
Tips: Definitely needs to be blended fully into skin with a brush to ensure long lasting.
First things first I absolutely hate the texture of this foundation especially when its on my skin its thick and heavy and prevents your skin from even breathing. I only used this product twice before it made my forhead break out and I never breakout on my forehead.
This foundation is definitely one of my new loves. The coverage is phenomenal and the formulation is so lightweight on the skin i forget im wearing foundation ! I find that you get a super long wear out of it used with a primer and setting powder but works fine without and will generally last around 6 hours before starting to look oily (:
Tips: -Use a brush to apply and really buff into the skin.
I have very dry skin, so stay matte was not my ideal foundation. Very heavy and definitely full coverage. Does not last long on the face, id say around 3 hours. Gives a great matte finish though, just not made for dry skin :[
Tips: Avoid this if you have dry skin, otherwise apply a lot of moisturizer and primer before use :]
This is a great foundation at an affordable price. It gives quite a full coverage so it is great for those times when you want to look flawless. Even though my skin is slightly dry the matte finish doesn't cling to my dry patches. It lasts well on my skin and I find that I usually don't need to use concealer with this foundation.
This is a fantastic foundation! I love the texture of it and most of all it's staying power as well as obviously the Matte finish. I wear it to work where I am working in a busy office and don't have time to touch up my makeup and after an 8 hour shift it is still going strong. This is often something that is rear for me as I have acne and often find makeup breaks up around my acne but this certainly does a great job of covering it up
Tips: Can be quite drying since it is a matte foundation so maybe steer clear if you have dry skin. Also try using it will a damp beauty blender and bump it onto your skin - this works best for me.
This is one of my greatest find drugstore brand. I love this product because it creates a flawless air brush finished to my face and it matte -that's a bonus! It stays on all day and it's very affordable. Certainly a must have
Tips: Use a buffing makeup brush or a beauty blender when applying this foundation to create a flawless finished.
This foundation is amazing value for money! Such good coverage, nice consistency and good staying power to boot! I find with this foundation I don't need to use much concealer on an average day, and by the end of the day my foundation is still in place! Super super happy with this purchase
