I found that this product used to slide off my skin almost immediately, but now with a good primer/setting powder I quite like the finish it gives. The range of shades is also really good, being very pale means I often find it hard to find shades to match my skin. I use the 110 as more of a highlight shade when I contour with liquid products now more than anything but it does give a really nice, dewy finish when it stays put.

I found that the wide range of shades allowed me to find a very close match to my skin tone but that's as far as it goes for me. The foundation itself is on the thicker side so I found that it got really cakey if I wasn't careful. The finish was really dewy on me and made my T-zone area look very oily. I also found that I needed a powder to set the foundation but even then, it would slip off after a couple of hours. Availability wise, I was able to find it in my local supermarkets, farmers etc but I bought it online so it only cost me $12. It was also difficult to get product out as I'm a very clumsy person and it is one of those foundations that you have to pour out. For me personally, it wasn't practical as I don't have a lot of time in the morning but if your skin isn't very oily and you are a careful person it might be worth having a look at this as it is affordable and easy to find.
For the price I was not expecting this product to be so good. It goes on really nicely and has a nice medium coverage that can easily be built on. Loads of shades as well so no complaints about the colour! I have 220 and its perfecto
I really didnt like this foundation, it was super shiny on my skin so after a couple hours of wear i looked terrible! I do usually get quite shiny but this was preeeetty bad. Is quite thin although it is buildable i wouldnt say its the best coverage.
I mainly get this product if I'm low on foundation and I'm going to the supermarket - cheap and easily accessible. This product gave a light coverage - however, I found you can build the colour up if you keep applying. It looked natural and let my skin breath. It was easy to find the right colour and I love that it has its own exact colour coordinated matching powder and concealer. I find that this product comes off easily as well.
Tips: Good day time foundation.
I used this foundation in the shade 120 classic ivory which unfortunately was too dark for my skin. I do like how the foundation has a dewy finish which makes the skin appear natural and healthy however due to the dewiness the lasting power of this foundation was not so great. It has a very liquid like consistency and the packaging appears nice but could do with a pump. It did cling to my dry patches so i recommend to use a good moisturizer first if you have dryer skin. I would probably avoid this foundation if you have oily skin as with my dry skin I still needed to set it with powder throughout the day.
Tips: Use a setting powder.
I didn't really like this foundation that much, the colour range wasn't that great and the coverage was medium. It I feel like you can't really build it up. It applies the best with a beauty blender . I felt like I needed to set it with powder or I'd get oily during the day. I feel like maybelline has better foundations out there. I liked the packaging because it looks super nice and sleek and you get a good view of the colour.
Tips: Try find it at farmers or somewhere you can try it on
Sorry Maybelline but this is one of the worst foundations I have ever tried. Such a shame as the packaging is sleek and chic, and the shade (110) was actually incredibly pale and yellow based (unlike the usual pink undertones of most foundations from lower-priced ranges) and suited me well but the formula is just terrible for me. This makeup seems to catch all of my flaws - any dry bits, little pores or undereye bumps are instantly exaggerated. It looks uneven and cakey even when applied sparingly, and it soon oxidises a deeper shade of yellowy orange. It seems to crack up once applied to - it seems to draw moisture out of my skin and the surface will almost craze like dried mud on a river-bed in the heat of summer. I would rather wear no foundation at all I am afraid. This is a definite miss for me.
Tips: Avoid if you have dry skin!
I use this foundation because its convenient to buy from my local supermarket at a respectable price. It was easy to pick the right colour to match my skin. I do find on the otherhand that i tend to use alot to get the coverage i need and that it wipes off after only a few hours and becomes shiny in the sunlight. Perhaps in summer it would be a nice natural cover for at the beach.
Tips: If you want a heavy coverage this is not for you and if you have oily skin.
For a foundation that is meant to have such a wide range of colours to 'fit' every/most skin I was really disapointed that the lightest shade made me look like I was attempting to pull off an oompa loompa costume. I am averagely pale with cool undertones but as the day went on the foundation would tend to oxidise and go very orangey. I would say that spending a few more dollars to get a better drugstore foundation would be far worth it
