I choose Buff for my color and it was a perfect match. The price is good and the coverage was not bad. It was not heavy looking and looked natural.

But it did feel heavy and tacky on my skin.

This is supposed to be for oily skin because has an ultra matte finish and stays longer.I did not find that to be true at all. It stayed better than the liquid foundations I used but it did rub off. I also needed to dust some powder on it to reduce the shine.

It is fragrance free which is good and bad because I could smell the oils in the makeup which was a bit of a turnoff.

I also noticed in the US magazines it is rated SPPF 25 while it is not noted in Canada anywhere on the package. I noticed later a sign was stuck on the displayers "SPF 25"

It was also really hard to get off. I used the strongest cleansers I had and my face still was coated with oil and water beaded up my face. I used lots of toner to remove the remaining oil.
