Working from the great reviews, thought I'd give it a try. Unfortunately, great disappointment for me. Colour match is pretty awful. I had to mix 2 different shades, but even then, couldn't quite...

I went to a lot of trouble to get this. My local Nordstrom's did not have my color (bisque) in stock, so they had to ship it from another store. I only purchased this because of the positive...

This is a really nice foundation -- very pigmented and I like the short ingredient list. I also like that it contains a BHA. You get a lot of product in the tub, especially considering how...
