Pros:

NONE

Cons:

Oily
Feels heavy
Looks Fake
Orange
Too dark
Last 3 hours
Did not help my acne
Cakey

This foundation, like many foundations from clinique, is a total FAIL. when i put it on, i was hopefull it would get rid of at least a few of my pimples, or at least cover them up while looking nateral. Gosh, was i wrong about that! When i put it on, i looked like an oopa loopa from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (very ORANGE) even in the lightes color. It did not stay on for more than 3 hours, even when i tried WITH a primer, did not help my acne, if anything made it even more noticeable because it caked up where ever i put it. it felt very heavy, and was so oilythat i looked like i had gone for a triatholan when i only had it on for 30 minutes! Ugh i would NOT Reacomend!!

Pros:

Good for light coverage
You know its your color match

Cons:

Not worth the money
Says its odorless but I can smell it, although the smell isn't bad

It's pretty expensive, but it's good to know its the right color. Its good for light coverage when you don't want anything too heavy. Umm.. the Pros and Cons pretty much explain it all!

Pros:

It covers my acne...
It matches my skin tone but some days it makes my skin a little tan.. (?????)

Cons:

I have to reapply it constantly. By about 8 hours, most of it has came off.
It covers my acne but I have used better foundations that covered more...

Sure get it if you need a foundation. I like it, but it's not the best one out there.

Pros:

*Great coverage
*Does not break me out
*Treats active spots

Cons:

*Not buildable - need an even application everywhere
*Drying
*Flakey and peeling after an hour
*Colour matching is hard
*Thick so need to be wary of tide lines on jaw
*EXPENSIVE - £21 (sterling)

I am in two minds about this foundation. On the one hand, it is the only foundation I have used which doesn't break me out. A bonus is that it actually combats my active spots. Unfortunately you can't just use it on problem areas - I need to apply a careful even coverage all over my face. If I apply more heavily to any part of my face it appears darker and therefore dirty The biggest issue I have is that it cracks and flakes around my mouth. I moisturise with Cetaphil prior to application, my skin is not flakey or dry without makeup. After an hour of smiling and talking I get a crazy paving effect around my mouth. On the whole, I am impressed with the foundation for preventing break outs.. But I am disappointed with the cracking. I would recommend to people who have acne anywhere other than the chin and mouth area.

Pros:

I guess it does some coverage....but not really alot

Cons:

Expensive, looks fake if your someone like me with alot of scarring and a thin layer won't cover anything. I can feel it on my face. Didn't notice any change in my acne.

I have been using this for a few months now, the idea of it being able to help acne was great, but sadly for me it did nothing at all. I have alot of scarring, more than the acne itself as I don't heal very well and coverage is not too great, thin a layer doesn't hide much and when u put enough to cover it looks fake and feels horrible. I actually tried the acne whole range clinique aswell and using the make up and got no changes with my acne. It dried up my skin and I reckon it gave me more. I have combination skin so I guess it is hard to find the right product as my skin changes so often. I personally wouldn't recommended cause it didnt work for me but everyones skin is different so it might work for others. If you have the funding and willing to give it a go then thats up to you.

Pros:

-Good coverage
-Silky texture
-Oil free
-Prevents breakouts

Cons:

-Expensive
-Doesn't moisturize

This product is worth trying if your self conscious about your skin. It covers blemishes well and also prevents breakouts however moisturizer should be applied before application as it can be quite drying.

Pros:

Didn't look cakey, oily or dry.
Easy to apply.
Stays on all day through all the dancing, soccer and school.
Get it with a powder because it helps the make-up set and stuff too.

Cons:

Expensive.. but thats just coz I live in Australia :|

I use it with the acne solutions cleaning stuff as well. In comparison to my old maybelline make-up I was using its brilliant. It also helped clear some of my acne up, mainly on my forehead. It also feels nice on your face and doesn't feel oily or just rub off when you put your hand on your face or something... I got gifts with it too like a free mascara, all these other cleaning products, blush, eyeshadow and lipgloss so if you want to get it, buy it when they have their gift time etc.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Doesn't match skin tone
Not moisturising
Very dry
Looks so fake
Thick and looks like stage make up
Makes skin look flaky

I would not reccommend this product to my worst enemy. However if you have very very oily skin I can imagine it helps as its so dry. I never thought I'd be a person to do this but I am actually claiming my money back for this product.
