Quick Take: buildable coverage, long wearing
I fell in love with spray foundations back in the day when Mac created Studio Mist. They discontinued it and I went on to use a cheaply made spray foundation by Sally Hansen. It worked okay, but the bottle ran out fast, and I could never get the color just right... and it appeared to suddenly discontinue as well. I was thrilled when I discovered this spray foundation by Sephora. The bottle is the biggest and the best that I have seen for this price. I still go through it fairly quickly, but that is because I use it so often. It makes my combination, acne-prone skin look flawless without clogging my pores. I am pleased with the medium color matching my skin, and pray this product doesn't disappear!

Love it! ^.^

I LOVE this foundation!!! I have acne prone (yuck I know) skin and this foundation works great!! It gives me heavier coverage when needed! The only negative thing I have to say about it is that they NEVER have the light in stock anywhere!!! Not even online, not even on eBay. It's really annoying............^.^

Not too heavy coverage. A little annoying to put on, but besides that it's awesome! Makes my skin look flawless.

Quick Take: buildable coverage
I am a makeup junkie and am constantly looking for something that is fabulous. I got this on sale and bought it just to get up to the free shipping total. I figured I had nothing to lose and it might be fun to try it. I had never purchased a Sephora brand product previously. I had to try a few different techniques in the application before I loved it, but when I got it right, I was astounded at how much I loved it. I promptly ordered another thinking it was going to be discontinued, but found that the price had increased back to the regular (still good) price?? I found that using the lighter application worked best sprayed directly on a flat makeup brush, and it is buildable if you need more coverage in a certain area. This is my new foundation and it beats ALL others including Bare Minerals, Tarte, etc.

Quick Take: buildable coverage, long wearing, oil-free, natural-looking
Great buildable coverage. Lightweight - perfect for summer. Eay to apply: I spray it directly on my face and then blend with foundation brush #56. It blends so well from your face to your neck. Absolutely love this stuff.

not worthy of a purchase. It was gummy and chunky on spraying and didn't improve. I was looking forward to this as a new summer foundation-thinking decent coverage but light weight. It was awful. Had to return. Sometimes a cheaper price equals a cheaper product

Quick Take: buildable coverage, long wearing
I absolutely love the foundation. It goes on very light but has a really great coverage. Covers up acne, pigmentation, freckles, etc. The mist makes it very refreshing to apply makeup in the morning. I use a stippling foundation brush and it gives a flawless look. It is very comparable to the Dior AirFlash foundation.
Cons:
-The lightest color oxidizes and becomes WAY too dark on me. (but then again, most foundations are pretty dark on me)
- It has a pretty unpleasant scent but it doesn't last
- no spf but HEAVY white caste in flash photography
Pros:
- Great price & comparable to Dior AirFlash foundation
- Great coverage
- Light weight/ long lasting

Love it! Wish it was a little less messy.
-06.09.13
Quick Take: buildable coverage, long wearing, oil-free, messy
I have always wanted to try airbrush makeup but was skeptical of the coverage factor. This one really delivers! It gives even application and is pretty easy to use as long as you have a steady hand. What I don't really like is that it can get everywhere. You definitely don't want to put your clothes on or jewelry (especially earrings) for that matter until you've applied this foundation. I use my shirt or towel as a turban then spray my face. It does go on smoothly for all day wear. The easiest way to get a flawless finish is to spray lightly, build your coverage if needed, then use either a sponge or brush (I use a sponge) to press the color onto your face. What I mostly love about this spray is that I don't even need to wear powder. This spray dries and feels like a powder almost. It's worth trying but probably won't be for everyone. Especially if you don't want makeup on your floors or any fixture nearby where you're applying your makeup.

This foundation is flawless...it goes on in a fine mist that dries so quickly with a matte, powdery finish that looks awesome. It truly looks like you've been airbrushed. I also have oily skin and I don't know why or how but this foundation keeps me mostly shine free and lasts all day! The coverage is beautiful.
The tricky part is the application. It took me a few tries after reading all of the reviews to really perfect the technique. I found that if you apply it with a brush the makeup dries too fast and doesn't go on evenly. The best way to apply is to hold the bottle 10" away from your face and apply as instructed on the bottle. After I let it sit for a few seconds I take a foundation brush and lightly buff the makeup in circular motions to get the perfect, blended, even color. The only problem I have is sometimes the nozzle gets clogged and/or cakey, but easy to fix with some remover.
In short--awesome foundation! You will love it once you learn how to apply it!

Quick Take: buildable coverage, long wearing
This airbrush foundation provides a very dewy natural finish with a buildable but lightweight coverage, I also noticed that even without setting, it seems to last almost all day. the only bone I have to pick is that the lightest color is nowhere near light enough for me so I can only wear this after I have spent too long in the pool

Quick Take: long wearing
I have never used a foundation that was a spray before, and I was excited to try this. My first error was that I should have purchased the lighter shade. Even with that though, I have been using it, and it works well. The hardest part was learning how to use it without over applying the make-up. Once I got a handle on that, it was easy. I recommend it very highly.

Wish I stocked up when it was on sale!
-06.01.13
Quick Take: buildable coverage, long wearing, oil-free, messy
I had no idea I was going to like this product since I'm a little iffy on store brand products. I bought this spray foundation just to try when it was on sale for nine dollars! I love it! Only problem is that it is a little messy. For instance; be prepared to cover your eyelids and lips. I prime my eyelids so I don't want to get foundation on them. And I don't want foundation to cover my lips. Other than that it leaves a flawless finish. I just spray it on my face then use a make-up sponge to kind of fixate and blot it on my face evenly. Not hard at all to use and I would recommend it.

New fave!
-06.01.13
Bought this item just to see what it would be like.. It's only $20 & the can is a pretty good size!
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!
It can be a little messy but I usually but an old towel in my hair, after a shower, and spray it on! I spray it once and rub it in with my hands and then apply a second layer to finish it off. It's so easy and quick. It saves me so much time.
The bottle allows you to choose what kind of coverage you would like. You get a lot of boom for your buck! Ill never use my old foundation again.
Love the way my face looks with it on and it's long lasting!

Quick Take: long wearing, oil-free
I like this product but it took a couple of tries to get comfortable with the application process. It looked heavier than I was used to but I learned that shaking the bottle is crucial as is blending a lot with a good brush.

Quick Take: buildable coverage, oil-free, long wearing
This product has fantastic coverage though I would reccomend spraying on a something else and applying it with a brush since the spray is a bit wide and messy. That's only reason for the 4 stars and not 5. It lasts all day even outside in the sun. Love it!

HORRIBLE, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY
-05.24.13
Quick Take: not a good cover up
I bought this looking for a good foundation, I got it today of course I wanted to test it. I sprayed it on my face thought well this feels a little dry and was quite messy using. But the second time I sprayed it,it sprayed out black all over the side of my face. It is a waste of money, I am very disapointed. Love sephora, but will not be buying this again.

I got this on sale. I'm using CD's airbrush make up and was pleasantly surprised that it is almost at oar. I got the medium shade which is 2 shades darker. I look tanned and my face look so smooth. I love it.
