Almay Smart Shade Makeup Reviews

amazing!
This foundation takes the guessing work out of finding the right shade. It provided me with medium to buildable coverage. I like that it is matte and I can honestly say it lasted me for a good amount of time. I use it on my fingers first to get color and then apply. And when I use with my tinted moisturizer, it helps add coverage for a natural look! — 2 years, 6 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 5 people said helpful

It works!
This foundation does everything it says it will. I'm fair but warm complected and have always struggled to find foundation products that will match, so I was excited to try this smart shade foundation...but skeptical about whether it would really be able to match my skin tone. But it does! It's a good, medium coverage foundation and didn't make my face break out which was a big concern for me. It lasted the whole day and my skin wasn't unusually oily by the end of the day. I do have oily skin and this foundation didn't do anything to control that. I'm writing this review in past tense because I eventually decided I just wasn't a fan of liquid foundation and stopped using this. But that's just a personal preference and doesn't change the fact that this is a fantastic product! — 1 week, 1 day agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Smart indeed
My skin falls right in between light and medium and they actually have a shade for my complexion. I've used this in the spring and summer to lighten my foundation. I really like it, but you have to make sure you blend it because you can leave streaks. — 1 year, 6 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 7 people said helpful

I love this smart shade makeup, it really does work! It is also very light and this is a must for my foundation, I don't think I'll ever use anything else! — 3 years, 7 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 4 people said helpful

Nice
It's ok but the coverage reminds me of a tinted moisturizer.. If you want more coverage I would choose something else — 1 year, 6 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

It's OK
It's easy to apply but my skin is lighter than the light option so if I don't blend very well, it's noticeable. I like that it feels light on the skin and the SPF doesn't hurt either but I don't use it that often anymore. — 1 year, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

So-So makeup (in a good way!)
While finding my right color has never been a problem, this "foundation" certainly does what it said would do: match my skin tone! For that, it gets full marks. The formula is rather runny, but goes on light, which means coverage is that of a tinted moisturizer; very useful in the summer. The smartbalance version gave a dewy-on-the-verge-of-shiny finish, so people who prefer matte faces, beware! — 3 years agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

LOVE IT!
I recently purchased this foundation when my usual foundation ran out. I'd seen the commercial on t.v. and also read reviews of it online and decided it would be worth a shot. Well I was pleasantly surprised when I got home and tried it! It went on soo smooth and covered my face in a thin layer of foundation. I felt like I had no make-up on at all!! I couldn't be happier with this product. The color matched my skintone perfectly and made my skin feel velvety soft. The price wasn't so bad either ($13.99) considering how great it works. I've spent a lot more on other, more high-end foundations and this one works the same if not better and is less expensive. I have already recommended it to friends and family and think everyone should give this amazing foundation a shot! — 2 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 9 of 12 people said helpful

Not Much Coverage But Light Feel and Nice Color
This is a great forumla for those wanting lighter coverage. It's color really does adjust for you to give you a more even-toned look but in terms of concealing blemishes, dark spots and imperfections it is too sheer. To me it has the coverage, texture and feel of a tinted moisturizer. It is not too oily which is nice and works well with combination skin as it is not drying either. This is a good product but because of its lack of coverage I probably won't buy it again. — 6 days, 10 hours agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
