    fabulous!

    by megheartsshoes (10 reviews)
    I love this foundation! Lorac's entire prime and perfect lineup is a great start for a flawless face, but this foundation really completes the look. It has a creamy, thicker consistency than some (not runny at all), and you only need a small amount to cover the entire face. Plus, the formula is very buildable - if you want ...more coverage in a certain area, or want to apply more later in the day before going out, it still looks natural. One thing I've found is that if you use your fingers to apply instead of a foundation brush, you can rub in circular motions (the way you would apply moisturizer or night cream) and get heavier coverage.

    Made me break out

    by makeuplvr (1 review)
    I like the way this product looks on my skin. Less is definitely more when applying it. I feel that it falls into the minimal coverage category, but I don\'t like my foundation to look too thick anyway. That\'s never attractive, no matter what\'s underneath. Unfortunately, I\'m pretty sure it\'s to blame for the large zits ...I\'ve been getting on my forehead lately. My skin is oily but I\'m developing my first wrinkles, and I thought a high quality oil-free anti-aging foundation would be just the thing. I like Cosmedicine\'s medi-matte tinted spf 20 foundation better. It doesn\'t make my face break out and I think it lasts longer after applied. March 30, 2008, 10:40 am

    Porcelain is actually porcelain!

    by KatintheCorner (23 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    First of all, it is a great foundation. A little goes a long way, and it gives fantastic coverage. It goes on beautifully and LASTS! The big reason I love this, is because they actually make a color pale enough for me. Most companies' "Poreclain" tones are about 3-5 shades darker than my skin tone. Definatel...y a keeper!

    Nice finish

    by KatyB (52 reviews)
    Top 500 ReviewerTrusted Review
    I don't usually use liquid foundations anymore, but got a sample of this and tried it. I have to say it has an excellent finish and applies like a dream. My skin feels much softer than normal (I use Laura Mercier mineral makeup usually). I felt like the coverage was adequate, but to say my skin looks flawless would be an... overstatement. I just went to the bathroom at work to see if I still liked it and I believe my pores look more minimized than with the mineral makeup. I might just buy this instead next time. Hopefully the anti-aging properties work too! May 27, 2008, 6:47 am

    very light coverage, smears,

    by yukitea (18 reviews)
    I was so happy when I heard this foundation does it all, wrinkle reduction, oil-free, spf.. what more can a girl want? How about a foundation that doesn't smear all over my shirt? How about one that doesnt feel greasy even though it says it is oil-free. How about one that stays on my face? This foundation is great for any o...ne who wants very light coverage and doesn't mind reapplying. I'm so dissappointed because I had such high hopes for this one. One good point it had was execellent color match! I'm bi-racial (asian and white) so I need a good balance of yellow and pink undertones and SMS 3 was a really good shade match for me, but I'm still sticking to my Diorskin forever June 10, 2008, 4:35 pm

    OK for Light Coverage

    by jazzminb (24 reviews)
    It's one of the few foundations light enough for my skin tone (lancome, l'oreal and almay also make light enough shade for me). It looks nice for light coverage - kind of ends up looking like I have powder on instead of a liquid foundation. I am used to the heavier coverage foundations that make your skin look smooth and ...just lotioned. So I miss that effect. But this foundation is good for looking natural even though you are, in fact, made up. May 1, 2008, 7:44 am

    Natural coverage

    by ElizabethRB (30 reviews)
    I am always on the lookout for a natural looking foundation that evens out my skin. This is my latest find. One little pump and a foundation brush does the trick. After using it for a few weeks, my skin looks great. January 15, 2010, 5:45 am
