This is a pretty decent foundation
depending on what you're looking for. Its inexpensive (about $6 at Target) and comes in a cute glass bottle. I think I found my color match on the first try. My color match is 320, but one thing I found is that 320 and 350 are essentially the same exact color. I guess that's not necessarily a bad thing o_0. They
both match me perfectly and I can't tell what the distinction between the two is.
I have seen that some people don't like this foundation because of its consistency. It is a very runny foundation but it never bothered me much because it applied pretty much flawlessly. The biggest issue I had with it personally was the lack of coverage it provided. This may have something to do with the "exclusive translucent base" and "lightweight pigments". Don't get me wrong, if you're just looking to even out your skin tone or cover redness or anything like that, it's perfect. If you're looking to mask blemishes or marks, this won't cut it. Also keep in mind that this is probably not actually a flaw in the product. If you go to the Maybelline website the description of the product says that it is meant to provide natural coverage that allows skin’s natural highs and lows show through, so its more than likely doing exactly what it's supposed to do.
It doesn't come with a pump, but I don't personally find that to be a bad thing. I think the only way you can really waste a lot of the product is if you knock the bottle over, which would be a complete tragedy. You can pour a little on the back of your hand or on your finger and dab it on your face and go from there. It blends very well using a brush or your fingers (I don't use sponges for liquid foundations). It leaves you a bit shiny/oily looking, but you could always put a loose or pressed powder over it to cut the shininess.
Overall this is a great foundation as long as you don't need much coverage, but I'm pretty sure the product is made to provide minimal coverage. It will leave you a little shiny but that's an easy fix. It blends great and it is very easy to find your color. Its also coordinated perfectly with matching concealers, blush and bronzer. Let me know how it worked for you!
