This is my HG and it seems as if it's already discontinued! I've been buying back ups when I see it. It's full coverage and matte, hence why some have described it as a paste. I feel like it gives...

I really like this foundation and I never wear foundation! It usually looks way too mask-like. I have yellow undertones, with a touch of pinkness around nose, which is covers nicely. Looks great,...

This is not a good foundation. Only applies properly with fingers. The brush has a nice handle and that is about it so I am keeping the product for the handle on the brush (maybe that was their...

I bought this for 40% off at Rite Aid, thinking "What the heck, that's a decent price" and purchased it in the lightest shade (Fair, I believe--I'm NC20). I had read a ton of reviews on here before...

This is the only drugstore foundation out there that says it is gluten-free. It's very matte, which is great if you have oily skin. It works well on very pale skin if you have the "Fair" shade...

I bought the "Light" color and it was just way too dark and orange on me. It's a shame because I liked a lot about the product. The packaging was great; I am a big fan of tubes. The foundation...

This foundation is awful, especially for older women. It comes out of the tube like a thick paste. Smells like clay. Doesn't really cover much of anythings and actually accentuates pores and...

I like this foundation, although the texture feels a bit different than other ones. The brush helps, but sometimes I only use this as a light coverage. One thing I do like about this is that I dont...

Gritty, drying, not much coverage. Although not great, love the brush. Now I know what a foundation brush does.

The foundation is medium coverage. It applies evenly. Actually, a little goes a long way. It wore well (8+ hours), did not seep into my pores or lines, did not oxidize and did not irritate my skin....
