Anyone try it? I heard some pretty good reviews in the other forum. If anyone try it, pls share in terms of color, texture, coverage, and staying power. Thanks! |

This is one of the MANY foundations I have tried...it has GREAT coverage and it does stay put but I tried it in the winter when my skin was dry and it made the dry skin worse. I'm going to try it again now that my skin is normal again. The look is like nothing I have ever seen...almost like pancake makeup but not so heavy. It is hard to explain but it is worth a try. I would have probably done a rave for it but like I said I tried it in the winter and it sat on top of my dry skin. I want to try the mousse blush too. The texture is great! |

This foundation has GREAT texture and GREAT coverage. Unfortunately, its lightest shade is around 5 shades too dark for me, so I can't indulge in this cool product. |

I thought I was pale! Or maybe I chose a shade too dark!
I bought 020 cameo - just out of interest, how do you all apply it? I used fingers and don't find this a great way

Hi, I really like this foundation as well. Gives great coverage and a soft, matte finish. Also Maybelline Pure Skin really surprised me as well, a terrific foundation as well. (Usually I am a drug store snob, esp. for foundations, but these 2 are excellent). |

I too apply it with my fingers because I don't know how else to do it. It's a bit messy I guess. Does anyone have any application tips? TIA |

I applied this with a foundation brush. Then smoothed out with a sponge. |

I tried this recently because I wanted to experiment with a matte look without spending too much money. I found it almost too matte, even with my combo skin, but this could be the result of my bias in favor of a dewy look. I did have good luck applying it, however, with MAC's foundation brush. I found that it applied more evenly when my skin was a little extra moisturized, but this left my face feeling sort of "heavy." I generally use only a tinted moisturizer or MAC's Moistureblend and both feel much lighter.
In review - great coverage, just not my "thing." |

i tried this with my finger, but wasn't as smooth as using normal liquid foundation. It tends to dry on my skin really quick |
