Dumb shade
I bought this product because i heard that its great for vacations where you gradually get more tan, the makeup will change to your skin as you tan. I heard that it comes out white but not to be frightened it changes to your skin tone once applied. yes it came out white and morphed into a skin tone, but it was NOT mine. it looked yellowish on my skin and the color did not blend naturally into my s...read morehade of skin. thats the whole point of it right? not only did this product fail to match my skin tone as promised, it settled un-smooth and pitted on my skin, as well as dried it out and flaked (i am oily!) I returned this product and statyed with my old organic tinted moisturizer from physicians formula.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

My absolute go too for 6 years...
I grew up using foundations since I was 12. I'm 33 now and the past few years I've gone through a huge transition with my skin. Acne here n there, pores, freckles. One true staple through the past 5 yrs has been this foundation!!!! It is my go to, always will be. Now,... I love the CC cream in 200 shade too and bec I have dry skin it's awesome for more coverage when my acne get bad. But this origi...read moreonal formula is my fav. I love that it( both really) are amazingly easy and quick to apply with fingers, a tube lasts ab two months or so and it's cheap and avail everywhere. It doesn't hide my freckles and I love that but is easy to hide and spot treat a stubborn pimple. It doesn't smell. Nor does it burn or irritate. This is a light to buildable med coverage where the CC cream found is a med to buildable full. I am lost wo this stuff and I feel amazing in it!!!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Smart match
This makeup is really good with matching your skin shade. I was skeptical using it, not thinking it would actually blend in, but it was hardly noticeable. However, that worked against iit. It was good for covering scars and evening out skin tones, but it didn't do any good for covering acne.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Too Sheer
The problem with Almay smartshade products is that they are too sheer. Most of us women want to wear makeup to cover our acne, red face, and to moisturize our skin and tighten it so that we look flawless. This foundation and concealer does not cover dark bags under the eyes, red spots, nor dark spots. Whats the point of wearing it then? From the average joe in South Dakota, dont buy into this fad unless you wear makeup just because.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Didn't work well for me
I have a very light complexion and when I tried the light product, my skin looked orange like I had bad tanning makeup on. My husband said it reminded him of being an Oompa Loompa. I wish it would have worked as it is hard finding a shade that matches my skin that doesn't make me look like a ghost. If want to keep trying Almay, give me a shout and maybe I can sample them for you.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Gives my fair skin a healthy glow
I have fair skin and I usually end up with the lightest foundation available. Those foundations give me good coverage but tend to make me look too pale or pasty and one tone darker looks too dark for my skin. This foundation has the perfect balance -- it blends with my fair skin to smooth my complexion, while giving me a healthy, sun-kissed glow. I have freckles that pop in the summertime and t...read morehis foundation evens my skin tone without covering up all of my freckles.
