Good coverage, light
I do recommend this product to whomever is considering it. I found it to be light enough to mask the sheen that appears mid-day yet non acne aggravating, which I appreciate and need in any makeup. That said, I do try and wear minimal minimal makeup so while I may like it, people who like a heavier coating might not find it as appealing.

Finally something that doesn't make me breakout

Pros:

Doesn't make me breakout
Feels good on skin

Cons:

Color Selection
Drying

I've used this for a few years and it's one of the only makeups I've found that doesn't make me breakout (the only other one is Garnier BB Cream). I wish they had a few more shade options. I'm always between the fairly light and light so that's kind of annoying and it is a little drying, but like I said, I haven't found very many options that my skin likes so I always come back to this.

Pros:

-will not make you break out
-buildable coverage
-looks natural
-one container will last you probably two months if you use it as your primary foundation daily

Cons:

-unless you buy the new "matte finish" foundation you will be shiny and somewhat glittery
-doesn't last all day
-can be messy, but if you simply put a tissue down on your sink or counter and don't go crazy, you'll be fine, it's really not that hard.

I use this product every day as an under eye concealer and as a concealer for spots because (if used properly) it will fully cover any problem area. Before you use their "swirl, tap, buff" method, either buy their concealer brush for under eyes and blemishes or simply use your clean finger. Pour a small ammount into the lid and dab your finger into it and put it over your blemish or scar and rub it in. You'll never know there was anything there- and neither will anyone else.

Pros:

Great light feel
Matches my skin perfectly

Cons:

I'm breaking out on the side of my face :(

I chose it because of the great things I heard about it. Also,since my skin complexion suffers breakouts at times,they told me it would help improve my skin. I started to breakout more on the side of my face.I just think everybody has different skin and will react differently to it. Try it out. If it's not for you, you should return it. I hope this helps a bit :)

Pros:

-looks completely natural if applied correctly
-dewy finish
-covers post acne marks beautifully
-good for skin/works with skin

Cons:

-messy
-expensive
-cannnnn look cakey if worn in a LARGE amount

i love this makeup, its perfect for my skin. It covers my post acne marks like theres no tomorrow. People always ask how i look so good without makeup but little do they know! TIP: onlyy apply makeup to areas where you need coverage, notttt all over! that is one huuuge mistake girls make these days, they apply all this makeup where they dont need it.
