Hmmm, trying to figure out why you apparently have a grudge again this vendor? You've got folks posting here who have purchased and used the product, which apparently you haven't? You post a youtube you found that dislikes the product instead of giving a personal annecdote.

Also, you brought up about the dry erase markers again, and "claim" the that marker just brushes off. Have you tried to duplicate it? I did. It DOESN'T just brush or wipe off of skin. It's only dry erase on non-pourous surfaces.

I purchased this product when it was a TSV a couple of months ago.

I'm 62, some discoloration, a few fine lines and crepey dark skin under my eyes. My skin is stil combination.

To get really good coverage, you do have to build it up. It's not a once and done coverage like I can get from my IT cc cream. It does not settle into lines and wrinkles. It isn't as "hot" as my IT cc cream which I cannot wear in warm weather.

I thought it looked very nice on my face, it didn't last all day. I do like it though and I don't need all day coverage, just special occasion use. Another product I like both the feel and appearance is sold on HSN. It's the "Ready to Wear Liquid Lift foundation"

I can't say enough how much I love this foundation. It feels weightless and covers well. PT doesn't settle into lines and wrinkles. It lasts all day. I love the blush as well. I am medium and the medium color works perfectly for me. I will definitely order again!!!!!!

totally agree. I have dry mature skin and my makeup is on at least 12 hours and usually up to 14 or more hours every day/night. I find this to be a medium coverage but adding the concealer if you need one will help. I only use the concealer on days/night I don't get enough sleep and have darkness under the eye area, than I use the concealer but not usually.

The foundation doesn't settle into or show up any lines/wrinkles or pores and lasts the whole time I have it on and looks exactly the same without changing color like some do.

I am very glad I went on AD for this kit, love everything in it but the foundation for me is perfect.

I have been using this foundation since the recent TSV, and it has replaced IT CC cream as my favorite. I wear the fair, and I have quite a bit of redness in my cheeks and dark circles under my eyes. I do find that I get better coverage applying with my fingers rather than with the brush, but I have found that with any makeup that I use. The brush works okay for the areas of my face that aren't red, but in my cheek area where I am most red, I feel the brush seems to remove what I just put on. I bought the TSV on auto delivery and it's the first AD kit that I didn't cancel after the initial delivery.

I really like this foundation and was rather skeptical it would work for me as I am 64 with oily skin yet some fine lines. It holds up well on my oily skin and doesn't settle into lines. I have worn matte liquids in the past but prefer this finish which is more dewy. I've come to believe that a matte look which I loved in my youth as it helped with my oiliness seems more aging now. I also find I like it better than wearing a powder foundation which settles more into lines as the day wears on.

I get good coverage with this and use the brush that came with it in the TSV. I've found that less is more and I only need a small amount (less than what is suggested to use) to cover my face. Since I really don't need the concealer that came with the TSV I put a tiny drop of it with the pea-sized amount of foundation I use, blend it with my finger before dotting on my face then blending in with the brush. Using the concealer this way will make the foundation last longer since it is a rather small tube.

I'm glad I got the TSV on AD so I can get more of this foundation at such a good price. I also like the blush and mascara that came in this kit.

I watched and wanted the tsv kit when offered. I held back, undecided due to the reviews and comments discussing fragrance in some of the componets. Being scent sensitive, I ultimately did not make the purchase. Now, I'll take the opportunity to try the Hydrogel/concealer duo offered as the ODO. I'm curious and anticipating receipt of this pair, +brush to see how it'll work our for me. I use and enjoy Eve Pearl and IT foundations currently. Fingers crossed.

I've used the Hydragel Foundation and it's not a favorite. The color ran a little lighter than expected. Even so, I was able to work with it. I liked the lightweight feel of the foundation and the coverage looked very nice upon initial application but disappeared after a short time in warmer weather. It lasted a little longer when I've used it in fall/winter. I bought the TTV last spring and it was a big disappointment so it went back right away.

I love this foundation. I honestly think it is the best I've ever used. Soooo glad I got the TSV on auto delivery.

Everyone has given this foundation such great reviews but I just find it to be meh! The colors also run light. I am always a medium and never have a problem with the that color.Her medium is definitely a light shade. They should add another medium that is truly medium.

@Mellie32 So true. I would never purchase this foundation again. I love the Doll10 line. I have several foundations here and have to say it's not the best foundation I ever purchased. It has light coverage and I don't think there's a lot of product in the tube either. I think it's a waste of money.

I too was surprised at how little was in the tube....only 3 weeks worth! Kinda pricey. Also it is light coverage and disappears through the day. I usually wear mineral makeup but thought I'd try this but it disappeared by noon and even DH said "are you using something new on your face?" (and not in a good way). If you purchase it be sure and check how it looks out in the sun. I was disappointed it didn't work for me. Back to my Everyday Minerals.
