I wouldn't recommend this at all, unless you like to get huge mounds of painful pimples on your face.

Pros

  • The only thing I like about this product is the fact that it has a nice, creamy texture.

Cons

  • I really don't like how it doesn't fully cover my acne or acne scars. Instead, it attracts attention to it by making it look all cake-like. Also, this product made me break out tremendously! My face is now three times worse than it was before.
  • light
  • for a day or two
  • $ 13
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

Only use this if you have very light acne/good skin. Do not use if your skin is oily, you will have to do so many touch ups resulting in cake-face. Seems to blend well at first but if you have larger pores the foundation will set into after 30min-1hr

Pros

  • Smooth application
  • Mattifies skin
  • Short term *airbrush affect*
  • Easy to remove

Cons

  • Settles into pores/fine lines quickly
  • Only holds for a few hours if you have oliy skin
  • moderately severe
  • for about a month
  • $ 11
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

It clogs pores, it makes acne worse. If you have anything other than light to very mild acne I would not use this. Yes, it covers your acne well and makes your skin look flawless, but the price for the is much worse.

Pros

  • Looks great on skin
  • covers everything well
  • has a creamy texture
  • makes skin look almost flawless

Cons

  • made me break out like crazy
  • moderate
  • for about a year
  • $ 10
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

This makeup is very nice for people who have skin that is oily/combination. This product can look caked up and flaky if used on a dry skin complexion. I like that it has an air whipped texture and glides on my skin nicely. I sometimes use this makeup on top of a light foundation for extra coverage. I have a medium skin tone and the medium color is almost an exact match. Good inexpensive product for people looking for a makeup other than a powder or liquid. I love that Maybelline is thinking outside the box on this one!

Pros

  • whipped feel
  • easy to apply

Cons

  • small packaging
  • light
  • for a few months
  • $ 8
  • I recommend using this treatment.

This product would be great if the finish you get at first lasted all day. Within about an hour my face would start to look oily and it would settle into fine lines I didn't even know were there. If you live in a humid area its a terrible idea. I have some acne and this product made me feel like I was only making it worse...The application process is difficult as well. If you use a sponge, it all gets absorbed into the sponge and it flakes as you apply; if you use a brush it goes on thick and you really have to work to even it out; if you use your hands (terrible) it gets flaky. As you put it on, the makeup flakes off and its the strangest thing....

Pros

  • Light
  • Nice finish

Cons

  • Difficult application
  • Gets Greasy
  • Accentuates dry spots
  • moderate
  • for about a month
  • $ 10
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

If you have barely any acne, buy it, its worth a shot.

Pros

  • hmm, well its soft and applies nicely

Cons

  • Bad bad bad if you have dry skin or acne/dry skin, looks HORRIBLE trying to cover acne.
  • I always say it myself, if only my skin was clear this makeup would be amazing !
  • moderately severe
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 12
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

I've been using this for about a few months and I really like this product. It has a creamy/powdery texture and can be easily applied, so I would recommend this to people who are beginners to makeup, but the key to a nice flawless face when using this is to use a traditional foundation brush. A foundation brush does work best with cream foundations. Also, if you have acne/dry skin use a moisturizer and then a primer before applying since this product tends to build and accentuation dry spots. People with oily skin can use this as well since it is semi-matte.

Pros

  • smooth texture
  • easy to apply
  • didn't break out my skin

Cons

  • tends to build up and accentuate dry spots
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • I recommend using this treatment.
