> 3 dayI have no idea why my local CVS stopped carrying this. Ive heard Revlon bought out Almay (?), so maybe that has something to do with it, not sure. Ive used it for years, its the ONLY make up that doesnt make my skin break out or get hot from a reaction or look oily or look flakey. I love the neutral color - my skin is fair (not pale) with pinkish undertones, so light or cool colors tend to look like clown makeup on me and medium or warm colors look like I have paint on my face. The neutral is just right. The makeup is fairly sheer, so it looks more natural, but you can layer in spots if you have broken capillaries or breakouts. (I would say its not the best if you need a heavier cover up, but it works for light cover up.) In addition to having sensitive skin, I have combination skin, so it gets oily patches AND flaky patches occasionally, but this makeup doesnt emphasize or exacerbate either problem. (Looks best if you apply it when youve freshly washed and moisturized.) In spite of all of my skin issues (now add aging to the mix), I get a LOT of compliments on my complexion, so from that Im guessing the makeup is sheer enough to look natural but pigmented enough to smooth any imperfections. The only thing Im bummed about is that it used to have an SPF rating, and it doesnt anymore. I think I read that the SPF factor (15) was no longer considered high enough to qualify for a rating label, but Im not sure how accurate that is. The whole reason I started wearing it was because I wanted something that was like a tinted sunscreen but for sensitive skin. I hope they keep this product going, I dont know what else I would be able to use...!

> 3 dayNot the most coverage but it made my skin so much better. Instead of just covering blemishes, I feel it healed my skin.

> 3 dayIt is so very easy to get the right cover color for your face. This goes on white and then to your natural color. It is great for the person who is not a made up guru. It’s great love this makeup!

Greater than one weekI have been using Almay products for 45 years because my skin is hyper sensitive. As the orifices changed, I changed my choices within the company. At 71 I still use their liquid foundation and powder to cover any blemishes in my skin. Everyone remarks that I look at least 10 years younger than my age.

Greater than one weekI love this makeup and have used it for years. It provides both moisture and excellent coverage for my skin. I cannot find it in stores anymore. I fear Almay has stopped making it.

Greater than one weekI have converted all of my cosmetics to pricey all natural/cruelty free products but unfortunately I still cant find a foundation that I like as much as this stuff. The ivory color that I buy matches my skin tone perfectly (fair with pink undertone). I love that it has SPF (another barrier for my fair skin in addition to my moisturizer), and it provides just enough coverage for me. I have tried many other foundations in an attempt to switch over, but all of them were too heavy, too greasy, and/or rubbed off really easily. I would say that this has light-medium coverage depending on how heavy your hand is but it stays put. I have dry/picky skin and this formula seems to work well for me. Until I can find a natural alternative, Ill continue to use this.

> 3 dayThis is the best drug store foundation for extremely fair-skinned women, in my opinion. It matches my skin tone perfectly (which is difficult to do-- I tried 32 foundations in preparation for my wedding!). It gives me a dewy look at first but becomes more matte over time. I apply it with a Beauty Blender, but it goes on fine with your fingers too. I use a lot more when applying by hand. The coverage isnt 100% and doesnt last ALL day, but if you want that type of coverage for this skin tone you should expect to pay a lot more. (If youre going that route, I recommend BECCA products- their lightest color is the lightest Ive seen on the market and although application is trickier, it really does provide full coverage for 12+ hours) This is perfect for everyday wear because it feels light, doesnt get cakey, slimey, or greasy, and lasts a solid 8+ hours for me. Pairs well over or under concealers, too.

Greater than one weekThis makeup isnt too cool or too warm. Neutral is the way to go to smooth out my complexion. (I have a light complexion.)
