Pros:

Covers well and lasts the whole day
Perfect colour match

Cons:

Breakouts in areas where I used the foundation
Oily, despite being the most "matte" liquid foundation of the mac range

The temporary effects of the foundation are good, its good coverage and blends well. Thick, so it covers acne and scars. HOWEVER, has made me break out tremendously levaing scars that I've had for over a year :( which have now multiplied! Wish I read these reviews before I bought it and used it for so long. If you have acne do not buy this I am now suffering the consequences with these acne scars. Boo :(

Pros:

Full Coverage

Cons:

Oily Skin
Conjestion
Little Pimples which have stayed there for years
Black heads/ White heads

Bottom Line would be do not use this makeup if you have acne skin. I used this from the age of 16-20years old and my skin is liturally a mess because of it. If only i had stuck to mineral makeup or better yet wore nothing at all, i wouldn't have a the problems i do now. In all honestly its great to have full coverage, but this makeup is terrible especially if your using it everyday for years on end.

Pros:

Med-Full Coverage

Cons:

Expensive
Makes you look really oily (unless you set it but even afterwards it will show again)
Made me break out!
No pump (you have to buy it separately)

At first I was so excited to try this foundation! Heck I was estatic! It cost me about $50 since I bought the concealer too. Anyways, I always have had acne and before I started using this product my acne was in pretty good shape. I was loving this product but given a couple of weeks of using this product I thought my face was fine and BOOM! OMG, I had the worst breakout EVER! I was mortified! I was actually convincing myself that maybe its the time that I get this crazy breakout! But to think of it now, I don't think so! Because of the full coverage it does I think thats what made me breakout crazy! It was clogging my pores! *Sigh* Until to this day I still have those breakouts and I am trying to find ways to heal it. Hell, I even have scars too now! Im in the process of trying out the natural remedy thats on here. This product may not have worked for me but maybe it'll work for you! After all everyone has different types of skin it just depends if your skin can tolerate it!

Pros:

The coverage is great and can be controlled easily.
It looks natural and never looks cakey.
The bottle lasts a long time

Cons:

It makes acne worse
Gets oily after a period of time on your face

Don't bother buying it.My skin was never perfect,but this gave the illusion that I had pretty nice skin. People always asked me if my skin was naturally so dewy and healthy looking whenever I used this product. They also asked how I manage to keep my skin so nice, but of course it was just the makeup and not my actual skin.While the coverage is great and looks natural, the skin underneath of the makeup is not so great. I used this for over a year, and all it did was break me out. It gave me weird cysts and lots of whiteheads underneath my skin. I had to stop using it because my skin wasn't in great shape. It was somewhat expensive,but it lasts a long time. You're better off buying something else that won't worsen your skin condition.

Pros:

It gave me a good coverage and it has lots of colors to choose from.

Cons:

It has a awful smell, it broke me out so bad in cysts and in tiny bumps all over my skin, and its way to over priced.

DONT GET IT PLEASE SAVE YOUR $26!

Pros:

Great finish
Thick but a good oil-free alternative to similar products (like Napoleon Perdis)
Makes skin look flawless

Cons:

Expensive

I used Napoleon Perdis Light Diffusing makeup for years as my 'going out' foundation on weekends. It always made my skin look amazing - healthy and dewy, but because it was so heavy and oily I would break out a week after using it. This is the best alternative I have found.

Pros:

Great coverage
Helps oily skin
Did not break me out
Has an SPF of 15

Cons:

Price
wish it had a pump instead

This make up helps with oily skin, it dries matte. There's many shades to choose from. Although it was expensive it's worth it. Buildable coverage (medium to full).

Pros:

Amazing coverage! Makes skin look flawless. Many colors to match skin perfectly.

Cons:

Very thick and caused massive break-outs.

I loved the coverage so much, but I had to stop using this because of the breakouts. I do still keep it for special occassions.
