Pros:

doesn't make breakouts worse
pretty good coverage

Cons:

didn't mach my skin AT ALL
make orange lines and patches on my skin

I bought this makeup thinking it would be a better color and texture for my skin, but i was WRONG. At first it looked like the right color and covered good enough, but in certain areas it turned orange!! My best friend was always telling me that i had orange on my face(after i got to school) so i went through those day with a strange colored face. Try it out before you wear it anywhere and see what it looks like outside.

Pros:

May match your skintone.

Cons:

Doesn't hide blemishes at all
Made gross looking streaks
Shade didn't even match? Weird

I thought this stuff would work good because I have a really hard time matching my skintone with makeup. This makeup sucked for my skin! It wouldn't cover anything unless I caked it on hardcore, and even then it made some of my acne look more brown then the rest of my skin. Absolutely hated this product, horrible. Only good for people who have light or NO acne or blemishes, scares, nothing. People who don't need foundation.
