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.

This foundation is brilliant. I have been looking for years for a matte foundation that would stay matte for an entire day - this one WORKS.

Love this foundation! The only problem is that for pale people, I find it very pink and I’m more a warm pale shade so it can look quite “off” compared to my neck and chest.

It has a light to medium coverage. Feels lightweight and easy to blend. Needs to be set with powder can be a bit shiny, but otherwise moisturizing on skin. Great price point and a little foundation goes a long way.

This product seems ideal for the acne treatment to ingredients in it , but I found the coverage to be very poor, and I tried with a few different applicators to check.

I usually enjoy Physicians Formula products, however this one was a complete miss for me! I find this foundation doesn't apply well at all, it goes on streaky and doesn't blend well. The fairest shade available was still dark and orange in tone on my skin. I was not impressed...

I have used this product for as long as I can remember; since the first year it was introduced. It comes in about 15 shades and matches any tone perfectly. You can apply it in 3 different ways; sponge on dry for a natural look; sponge on damp for maximum coverage; or use...

This isn't one of my most favorite products, but I will certainly use it if I find it on sale. I find that this product blends in nicely to my skin and the colour matches find if it's summer. I don't know why, but if I use their product on my skin in the winter it's just not as...

My review is for shade Translucent Light. Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Loose Powder retails around $17 for 12g container. I love that Physicians Formula is a cruelty free brand. Unfortunately, as with most powder foundations/setting powders, Physicians Formula Mineral Wear...

I have an oily t-zone and have been staying away from creme foundations, but when i read these great reviews I couldn't resist. The price is pretty expensive 36$ from pharamaplus but you do get a lot of product so its definitely worth it. *The finish of this product is a...

Overall, this is a nice product. It goes on very smoothly, and covers flawlessly. My only gripe is that it does oxidize, so you should pick it up in a shade lighter than what you think you need. It's great on its own or over a liquid for more coverage. It's hard to find a good...

I LOVE THIS FOUNDATION! I have oily/combo skin and I struggle with acne scars on my cheeks and the occasional breakout. This foundation comes with a flat brush (which comes packed into the compact) and it is so easy to use! The formula is fantastic, insanely smooth, and delivers...

I’ve been using this product for close to 9 years. Suffering from the worst form of acne I have fooled the world. I’m thinking I’ve purchased over 400 of these guys. I apply with the average sponge (wet) to create a perfect complexion and even skin tone. I’ve also used...

I received a coupon to try an Almay product and chose this foundation. Fortunately it was free because I wasn't too fond of it. I bought a shade closest to the foundation I wear now (and it actually looked really close!) but turned out to be way too dark for my face - the...

Recently acquired this and absolutely love it. Excellent coverage without looking like covering and an excellent feel once applied. Colour is true and matched my skin tone well.

This foundation applies streaky, feels heavy on my face and does not provide a colour fair enough to match my skin tone.

Great foundation, a little goes a long way, good coverage, does not give me any breakouts, does what company claims.
