Pros:

-Covers my scars and my breakouts for the most part
-Doesn't have any scent
-Feels very light
-Easy to apply
-Doesn't clog pores
-Oil-free

Cons:

-Doesn't prevent or clear breakouts (necessarily), but does not cause any
-Does not give the illusion of an entirely flawless complexion on its own

This was the first and only foundation I have ever used, and from the beginning I loved it! This is one thing I really could not go without. I literally would not step out of the house without this on my face. I can't say that it really does anything to prevent or clear breakouts because the amount of salicylic acid it contains is only 0.5%. However, I have never noticed in the fourteen months that I have used this that it was the actual cause for any sole pimples or breakouts. I love the idea that its covering my blemishes while not causing any future blemishes.

This product was honestly a waist of my money, i usually use the Neutrogeana Health Skin oil free make up(which is amazing) but i wanteds to try this out and see how it was. It make my face totally red and itch. Its not worth the price. I am never switching foundations again! haa

Pros:

-clears up acne
-no shine
-covers well
-non-comedogenic (won't clog pores)

Cons:

-a little pricey

I love this makeup. I had very bad, very oily skin, and this is the only makeup I used. I never broke out from it (in fact, you cannot break out from this makeup because it is non-comedogenic), and it took care of my "shiny" skin that embarrassed me. It helped heal my skin too. The only thing is that since I have fair skin, it was difficult to completely cover up the redness from the zits; for that, I used a mineral powder and a makeup brush to lightly brush powder over the top of the pimple. This in combination with the neutrogena makeup made my face look so much better! Do not use if you have sensitive skin though-it can dry out skin very quickly!
