I recently purchased this from Besame Europe, and so far I've been quite impressed! First of all, the shipping was incredibly fast. The pot design itself is very cute and chic, but as a way of...

This is the best foundation I've ever used. It is rather pricey and comes in a tiny jar, but I quickly discovered that a little goes a VERY long way. It needed only minimal powder to set, and...

I actually got this in a swap with another MUAer, because I love Besame products and have wanted to try this for ages. For reference, I am NW15, but I got "medium beige." Darker than what I would...

This highly-pigmented and thick foundation is actually much more wearable than I imagined it would be. I had to purchase two shades--Yellow Cameo and Bisque--to mix and match to my skin tone, but I...

This is my night out foundation - i find it a little heavy for the day time. It covers well and it lasts all night, which is quite a feat in my book! My skin is prone to redness and is oily, so to...

I tried this foundation in the color named Cameo - it had quite a bit of a yellow undertone - but blended in nicely without looking obviously yellow - I wear a MAC NW20 or NW25 foundation. With...

I picked this up during the Besame sale in Yellow Cameo since Bisque was sold out. The packaging is really cute and I love the glass jar it comes in. Classy. As expected, Cameo was too tan for me....

This foundation comes in a glass jar and is a dense cream. It provides medium to full coverage depending on how you apply it. It is very heavily pigmented and can double as a concealer. However,...

First, I got this on sale for $10. I hope Besame is not d/cing this marvelous product! You will be amazed at the little jar which resembles packaging for concealer more than foundation. It is...

I've had this foundation for about 6 months now, but only recently can I say that I LOVE it. At first, I was using a foundation brush to apply. Even though I was using a small amount, it seemed...

Okay, this doesn't come in my perfect shade and it is expensive. BUT, I can mix the Bisque and Yellow Cameo to get the right color, a tiny bit goes a long way, AND it wears so well! It really feels...
