  1. High coverage

    Bunny

    This foundation has super high coverage but by the end of the dry my skin can look quite dry

  4. Used to be my go-to foundation

    Dani

    This foundation used to be my go-to throughout my mid 20's. I would use it religiously as it did the job, with the right amount of coverage, and lasted on my face all day and night. Now that's I'm a bit older (almost 31), I feel like my skin has changed and this foundation is no longer for me. It doesn't sit as well on my face and I find it goes a bit cakey. I've moved on to other brands now, but ...

  5. Full coverage but could last longer

    Bri

    The coverage on it is absolutely amazing but I find it doesn’t stay as long as some of my other foundations like my Marc Jacob’s Remarkable, obviously completely different price bracket so it’s amazing for the price but it isn’t 24 hour wear like it advertises
  6. Great

    Lucy

    I use this under make up as a primer/concealer and it covers well and acts as a good base for foundation.
  7. Not the best

    Sof

    This foundation can be quite patchy and streaky at times, it doesn't go on very smoothly. It also dries very quickly as well. There are much better foundations out there than this.
  8. It's very matte

    Julia

    Not a fan of this. It might work for someone who wants very full coverage, but for me it felt mask-like and so dry. I have oily skin, so I found that when I wore this through the day, the oils in my skin broke up the product around my nose and chin and cheeks. But I think if you had dry skin, it would be way too matte.
    The packaging is convenient and hygienic, with a squeezy tube, but feels...

  9. Super long lasting!

    Loz

    I have super dry skin and as a result, most foundation I wear usually end up flaking off in a couple of hours. However, I can wear this foundation for 8 hours at work and come home and it still looks great. It’s a very affordable product too which is great!
  10. amazing

    eda

    I had seen a lot of people talk about this. I had to try it myself and I've got to say I like this foundation a lot. This foundation is very matte.
  11. Good foundation but not my fave

    Maria

    I know a lot of people love this foundation but I just did not see the hype. It is a nice foundation but did not always sit nice on my skin. I have combo skin and some days just could not get this to work.
  12. just lovely

    Gina

    used a s a primer when they updated my foundation and it needed more coverage. would recommend
  13. Perfect full.corvage foundation for oily skin

    Cayley

    Been using this product for years great colour and coverage for oily skin
  14. Nice, but maybe not for oily skin

    MK

    I loved the finish when I first applied this - full coverage, but still satin.
    I have combination skin so I found that throughout the day it became a bit more oily looking around my T-zone and cheeks.
    Very build-able, can mix with a moisturiser or tinted sunscreen to make it more natural.
  15. Colour matches well

    Abby

    Very Matte results for oily skin- can use as a base too for application of thicker foundations. A great product.
  16. Matte finish

    Maria

    Gives a smooth shine free complexion ideal for oily skin
  17. Great drugstore Product

    Kyra

    Good full coverage foundation for the price. Also stays on relatively well. Great for oily skin but can be drying.

  19. Not bad

    Dhanoa

    It doesn't have the best coverage and it isn't buildable on my skin but it lasts all day for sure.
  20. Good coverage. Not very dewy.

    JohnnyM

    Okay so great coverage but not good for dry skin. I have the infallible oxygen technology liquid in a bottle component and I find the oxygen technology better for my skin type.
  21. Actually so good!!!

    Emma Loves Makeup

    I bought this after watching Nikkia Joy's makeup recommendations for Oily skin and I've never looked back! I've repurchased this multiple times and have never had any issues. It works so well with the Infallible Primer and the shades match my skin nicely when I have a tan and don't. And also great is the price!
  22. vanilla

    cherry

    it is a good foundation to be used everyday i would not recommend it for party wear. it gives a good coverage but it is not long wear.
  23. go to

    alex5345

    i dont use liquid foundation often but when i do i always reach for this. It is full coverage for my skin and can be thinned out a bit with moisturizer if you want a more day friendly foundation.
  24. Just beautiful!

    Mandi

    One of my favourites that I keep going to !Full coverage with no blemishes on the face!
  25. Good but not for my skin.

    Emily

    This didn’t work very good for my skin, it made it look very flat. But I think this would work wonders on someone with very oily to oily skin and like the matte look. Full coverage and lasted all night
  26. like it

    m

    I got a perfect match in a chemist store, so i am happy with the good start. It is very matte which I like.
  27. Amazing

    Loretta

    Favorite foundation ever. It really does last all night without getting gross, and looks really wonderful on.
  28. great foundation

    fatos

    This foundation is very matte which I like. It has a great shade range which amazing.
  29. Lovely foundation !

    Sinz

    Full coverage with no blemishes on the face! One of my favourites that I keep going to !
  30. great foundation

    agota2

    I bought this product after reading and watching many reviews. This is foundation is matte which I like and give you medium to full coverage and a beautiful finish.
  31. Broke me out

    Neel

    I love the shade range on this foundation, I got an almost perfect match. It is very matte which I like and sometimes I would mix it with my moiusturiser for a BB cream effect. Unfortunately this clogged my skin and broke me out badly even though I am good with my skin care and with makeup removal.
  32. Best full coverage foundation

    Kit

    I love this foundation. It's easily buildable and gices fantastic coverage. No matter how much you apply (or how you apply it) the finish is very natural looking. I was using double wear but switched based on recommendation and haven't gone back
  33. Really good everyday foundation

    Jade

    With a good primer and skincare routine, I’ve found that this foundation lasts all day on the skin. I usually get a 12-15 hour wear. If I was to go somewhere after work, I’d have to take it off and put a new face on. But it doesn’t require touch ups during the day, even for someone with oily skin, like myself.
  34. Great for Oily Skin

    Sophie

    I love this foundation and use it almost daily along with a CC cream to add a little bit more coverage. I alternate between a few colours depending on my tan at the time. It mixes very well, applies nicely and lasts all day. I generally get oily through the day too and I find this to be one of the best foundations I have tried to keep that at bay.
  35. Very matte

    Taryn

    This is a great foundation, it’s very matte which is great for oily skin. Beware though - it doesn’t play well with others, my concealer doesn’t sit nicely underneath, nor does my powder sit well on top (not that the powder is needed anyway). Still very happy though, would definitely repurchase.
  36. Perfect for oily skin long lasting

    Cayley

    Perfect for oliy skin long lasting
  37. Cheapest foundation

    Jing

    Cheapest foundation, not really good for my skin
  38. Great coverage and lasts all day + night

    Sel

    This is the best foundation for a night out when I need my makeup to last all day. I mix it with Mac strobe cream and it looks amazing!
  39. High end foundation for cheap

    Bayden

    Perfect for oily skin and it’s just like a high end foundation but for a lot cheaper
  40. full coverage drug store foundation

    alanna

    the undertones for this foundation are a bit off, i tend to go a little orange after it subsides, i find that using concealer in appropriate areas pulls away from this and makes it not so noticeable.
    the only other issue is if you have combination skin like me, after a few hours the T-zone can be an issue.
    other than that its bendable and really easy to use for the price.
  41. Matte!

    Emily

    Woah this is extremely matte! A little too matte for my liking but If you are super oily I recon you would love this. It’s full coverage and doesn’t budge a bit
  42. Oxides - a real shame

    Maddison

    This foundation is ok. However the undertones seem a bit off my for colouring. The foundation wears well but the colour selection could be improved.
  43. Perfect for oily skin

    Kayla

    The shade range could be better, but apart from that I highly recommend this foundation for oily skinned people. It keeps your skin nice and matte, so much so that you don’t even really have to use powder to set it, which I love considering I always have to apply a lot of powder to keep the oil away. I don’t think that people with dry skin should use the matte version of this foundation, but the d...

    Great matte look for my night outs
  45. avoid if you have textured skin

    monique

    the formula seemed promising however once applied to skin it made my skin look extremely textured. The foundation also oxidizes and doesnt last all day
  46. good foundation

    Mani

    it applies easy but it is not long wear. after like 8-9 hours of having it on i feel it started creasing and getting patchy.
  47. Holy grail

    M

    This is my absolute holy grail foundation. I've tried near everything, high end cheap you name it but this is it. Gives me a matte but not flat finish. Doesn't cake. Last all day. Doesn't separate. Covers everything.
  48. Far out, matte!

    Emma

    Far out this stuff is very Matte! If you’re oily skin you will loved this! I however did not, a bit too matte for my liking
  49. very good

    briella

    one of my favourite foundations! great for oily skin or any skin in general.
  50. Good value for money

    Ashley

    I found this foundation quite good. It is very matte so I found as I have aged that I’ve gone back to their original formula. Good coverage, however do be wary if you keep it too long, it will oxidise.
    Overall, would definitely recommend, particularly if you’re on a budget.
  51. Oxidizes

    Abbey

    This foundation is alright. But it oxidizes like crazy. I would suggest getting a shade lighter then your usual skin tone
  52. Thick

    Jay

    A thick foundation, better for oily blemish prone skin
  53. Decent

    Bee

    Terrible shade range, alright formula.
  54. Wouldn't recommend

    Laura

    For a foundation that thick, when i blended it out, it had hardly any coverage for the amount of cakiness i felt. The colours all looked a little orange as well, and i found it really patchy and hard to work with. would not buy again.
  55. So so..

    Ellie

    This foundation is ok. However the undertones seem a bit off my for colouring. The foundation wears well but the colour selection could be improved.
  56. blendable

    perfecting skin

    a very nice hydrating and blendable foundation. i have used this for a very long time. it has always done the job and given me a nice coverage. i have a light to medium skin complexion and i used the shade 11 vanilla. i use it with a blending brush because beauty blenders does not work for me. i have dry skin but this foundation does not makes my skin dry.
  57. Great

    Demi

    Provides full to medium coverage that lasts all day without powdering throughout the day. Is great for people with slightly oily skin as it controls it and stays on for a long time
  58. Great and affordable

    Stella

    A really good affordable foundation that is full coverage and very buildable. The formula is very nice and great for oily skin.
  59. Great and affordable

    Stella

    A really good affordable foundation that is full coverage and very buildable. The formula is very nice and great for oily skin.
  60. Shade range needs work

    Ellie

    All the shades seem too orange. maybe I am just too pale but usually I can find my shade in foundation! The formula seems great though, just wish they would make pinker/lighter shades
  61. Good matte foundation for the price

    Sheryl

    But too matte for my liking but still a really nice foundation and I would recommend people with combination/oily skin to try this as it's a good one for the price
  62. Great drugstore product

    Kylie Q

    This is a great drugstore foundation for oily skin girls. If you like matte and medium to full coverage you must try this.
  63. quick drying time

    Abbey

    The product is quite thick, has great coverage and gave me a flawless base. I love colour range (easily to find a shade that matches when wearing fake tan). I love a matte finish and it definitely is matte however I found that it was quite difficult to blend because it dried too fast. I work in small sections and blend out before moving onto the next to ensure there is no patchiness.

  64. Great matte foundation

    Kellee

    Buildable doesn't oxidise. Stays matte. Do have to touch up once a day but I'm a T-zone oil slick so I don't think it's the products fault. Highly affordable and variety of shade range available. I would recommend trying it!
  65. Very matte, longwearing

    Ellie

    Quite a nice foundation if you like matte and full coverage. I like this for events or going out but not so much for every day wear because it is intense full coverage.
  66. Patchy!

    Sophie

    My skin did not like this foundation at all. Every time I would apply it with a damp sponge it would dry so quickly and lift off as I’m blending. It also darkened straight away which made certain areas very patchy. It made it almost impossible to create an even layer on the skin. To top it off it also clung to my dry patches. I’d only suggest this foundation for those with very oily skin and if yo...

    Allie

    good foundation. A little thicker than what I usually like.
  68. Good formula, needs more shades

    Nell

    So nice and matte but I unfortunately got the wrong colour and it doesn't go any lighter so there isn't a shade light enough for my skin tone, and I'm not even that pale. The formula is great and long lasting, particularly for oily skin but I wish they would expand the shade range.
  69. Decent

    Ja

    I've used this only a few times but so far it seems good. Nice finish and easy to use.
  70. Great product

    Kylie

    This is a great “drug store” foundation for my oily skin. I really like the packaging it’s easy to use and hygienic. The foundation itself is great when set with a powder. I just wish it was slightly higher coverage. Great for oily skin.
  71. Average

    Sami

    I heard about this foundation through beauty youtubers raving about it. However when I tried it I was disappointed. It looked very chalky on my skin, even though it was the correct shade. It also settled into fine lines over time, and broke up slightly on my oily T-zone. However the second time I used it I mixed it with my Becca backlight priming filter (any luminous primer/liquid highlighter woul...

  72. matte and stays all day

    Mya

    i have extremely oily skin and after the mixed reviews was nervous to try however with a good primer and setting powder it looked beautifully matte but not drying on my skin, if your skin isnt that oily it may be drying however. stayed all night and didnt cause me to break out!
  73. Great matte foundation for the price!

    Natalie

    I used this on an everyday basis when I didn't want to use expensive foundations but still wanted medium coverage with a matte finish. I have oily/combination skin and this foundation worked well for me when set with powder
  74. Very Drying

    brittany

    I wanted to try this after hearing so many positive reviews. However, it just did not live up to my expectations and I totally regret buying it. It has good coverage though I found the formula to be very drying and hard to blend, it also oxidised while wearing it so it made my skin look orange.
  75. Absolutely love!

    Zoe

    I’ve always had fairly oily skin with large pores. I’ve been using L’Oreal infallible matte foundation for 3 years now and won’t use anything else.
  76. Great for price

    Em

    This foundation offers good coverage and definitely has a matte finish. I have oily skin on my nose area and find this product lasts several hours before separating on the nose area.
  77. doesn't work as great

    girlbythewindow

    I wanted to love this after hearing so much good things about it. I have pretty oily and acne prone skin. The foundation didn't last past 5 hours and started breaking up and floating above my skin despite using a primer and a powder to set it. The shades didn't match my skin tone as well either.
  78. Was my fave

    Tenisha

    This was my absolute favorite for a good year. I highly recommend this to everyone.
  79. Great coverage for oily skin

    Amanda

    I was lucky enough to find my colour in the range avaliable. This is a great foundation of you have oily skin as it is very matte. I have normal to dry skin so I generally mix this with the infallible pro glow which gives me both coverage and glow.
  80. Great foundation, not enough shades!

    Emma

    This is a great foundation and works so well on my super oily skin. It lasted a really long time and was great coverage. Worked better than many high end foundations I’ve tried. But the shade range is terrible! The lightest shade is slightly too dark for me, and I am not very fair compared to many others. I need to use a mix in with this to get the colour to match me. Please add some lighter shade...

  81. Good coverage, Bad Color Range

    Catherine

    I tried this product when it first came out, and due to me being so pale, unfortunately the range of colors didnt go light enough to match my skin tone. However, the coverage was lovely, smooth, easy to apply and stayed all day, even in heat.
