MakeUp Forever Face and Body Liquid Foundation

I had been researching and reading reviews about this make up for several weeks before buying. All the reviews seemed to be really good, so I finally decided to buy it hoping it would live up to the reputation.

According to http://www.makeupforever.com/products/face-body.html this is what it promises:

The gel texture of the Face and Body Liquid Make Up is light, fresh and meltingly smooth. It evens out the complexion and leaves a thin layer of powder on the skin, for a very natural finish.
Its long-lasting and water-resistant formula is also suited to the body. Recommended for all skin types, its light texture makes it especially suitable for mature and problem skin.
Essential on vanity tables and trays, Face & Body is the ally of any nude make-up, fresh and faultless


I bought this Face and Body Liquid Foundation online from http://www.pmstudio.com.au/, an Adelaide based company. I bought the shade in 20 Ivory. Just for comparison, I am a MAC NW20.
A blob of the makeup
Gel consistency
  I find that the shade suits my skin tone very well, due to its watery, almost gel-like consistency and is effortless to blend and apply. It can easily be applied with fingers instead of brush and sponge. Shake well before use!! One thing to note though is that Makeup Forever Face and Body Foundation will not cover severe scars/acne scars as it is sheer but buidable. It does even out the skin tone and gives it a radiant appearance without looking oily. This is the BEST light to sheer foundation I have tried so far, in comparison with other brands such as Lancome Teint Miracle and Christian Dior's Diorskin Forever.
Blended under normal light
Blended under sunlight

Pros: super blendable, flawless application, even out skin tone, virtually foolproof makeup, no strong scent, natural looking even in harsh lighting

Cons: hard to get if you live in Australia, does not cover monthly breakouts, does get a bit oily during the day.



Price: As mentioned, I bought this makeup from  http://www.pmstudio.com.au/ for AUD $58.
But users in America can buy from the official site http://www.makeupforever.com/
