Too Sheer for me

Feels great on my skin. Very light weight. A little too sheer for me. Better for younger skin with very little flaws.

Super light yet still covers beautifully. Great for those days when you want a more natural look.

A MUST try! And can’t beat the price!

Medium, buildable coverage. It’s thin and smooth in texture but a little goes a long way. I only need 2 pumps for my entire face. This doesn’t settle in my pores and it looks SO natural, and cuts out any redness I have. I purchased this, along with the Coverage foundation, and I like this one SLIGHTLY better. It’s just a tad thinner and I like the overall feel better, but both excellent foundations, and at their prices, a steal! I wish the finish were a little more “dewy”, but I just ordered the fluid primer and going to try that with it. I am a “foundation junkie” and this rates up there with some of my favorites! A HIGHLY recommend!

Lightweight and natural looking

I bought this on a whim since I was looking for something that wasn't so heavy on my skin, especially since I am starting to get fine lines. I was presently surprised that this covers nicely, is not cakey, and gives my skin a look that I am not wearing any foundation, which is great for me and the days I like to keep my makeup simple. I really loved that the ingredients are good for your skin and m y skin never feels dried out either. I would definitely give this a shot, especially for the price!

Every day must have

This is a perfect every day, buildable coverage serum! I am still in awe that I paid this little for something so amazing. It’s my go to for every day. It is very runny since it’s a serum but blends seamlessly. I’ll add a second layer on areas where I might be red or need a little more coverage. Now I’m going to try the full coverage foundation for special occasions.

Very natural

I really like this foundation but this color might be a tad too yellow for me. I mix it with my Supergoop Daily Correct CC cream (light to medium) and it seems to work. I wish The Ordinary offered a sunscreen (fingers crossed) because their products are awesome and you definitely cannot beat the price! FYI...I have oily acne-prone skin and this doesn't seem to aggravate it (doesn't control oil but that's not what this claims to do anyway). For the price, you should give it a try!

Better than I expected

I'm in my early 60's and don't want any foundation that is heavy or cakey. I was pleasantly surprised at the nice coverage and with just a touch of finishing powder my skin looked good for hours. Nice product for the money for sure.

So happy with this

I purchased this in 2.0 n and 2.0 y, they both work but i prefer the neutral shade. I have oily skin and every foundation i have ever tried breaks down significantly at the 6-7 hour mark. This one does not, it stays beautiful for up to 10 hours. This looks like skin, not mask like, shows my beauty marks but covers the redness on my cheeks. I only use 1 pump of the product and apply with a brush it buffs in effortlessly. I have gotten so many compliments on my skin since using this. This is a lovely foundation with fantastic staying power.
