Quick Take: cream to powder

I love this product. It feels great when you put it on, and once its set you dont notice that its there. I just wish it came in more colors.

Coverage Magic - 11.16.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing, cream to powder

This is the very best foundation that I have ever used. I have acne scars and this covers all of the dark scares like magic. I can not believe the difference. I even had a co worker say how beautiful my skin looked, she could not imagine that I ever had acne.

A wonder! Changed the way I feel about makeup! - 11.02.09
Quick Take: long wearing, cream to powder, full coverage, less is more, easy to reapply

The only makeup I have ever used that makes me WANT to wear it. I have some blemishes and scars on fair/light skin, and just a LITTLE of this makeup gives me medium-to-full coverage on my whole face. Usually I don't need an additional concealer. The first time I used it, I put too much on and looked a bit clowny / stage makeupy. Less is more! Blend it on for a minute or two and you're set to go. Very light, non irritating. Just wonderful. Pop the tiny stick in your bag for easy reapplication - but you probably won't need it! Long lasting as well.

At last my perfect foundation! - 10.19.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing, great for anyone who wants to cover redness.

This foundationi is the only one I've used that blends flawlessly with my fair sikin tone . It covers the redness and evens my skin tone without feeing heavy. It lasts all day even though my sikin tends to get oily around mid day. I love it.

Foundation for Dummies. - 10.19.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing, cream to powder, simple application, hypo-allergenic, unique packaging

I love this foundation stick! It goes on smooth and when applied to the skin, this foundation turns into a powdery texture. This is great for beginners that just want smooth, even appearance in the face.

Good Medium Coverage Foundation/Cover-Up - 10.12.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing, cream to powder

I love to use this foundation on my T-zone and blend or just use as a concealer under eyes or in problem zones. Not oily at all with a nice full coverage that blends. Has a faint green tea smell.

naturally flawless - 10.10.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing, cream to powder, natural matte finish

I used to use a tinted moisturizer but got tired of the shine that I get from it halfway through the day. I wanted something with a bit more coverage but with a natural matte finish, so a sales rep recommended this to me.

I love how it provides minimal coverage but makes my face look almost flawless. It's a light coverage, so it doesn't cover acne too well but I just use a concealer for any problem spots. It's long-lasting though. And I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because if I'm too lazy to wash my face at night it tends to make me break out a little, and I never had that problem with the tinted moisturizer. Also, the shade is a bit too light but the next color darker is too dark for me. I'd probably buy again unless I find something better.

Play Sticks are wonderful! - 10.02.09
Quick Take: awesome!

I really love this foundation! It has great coverage, and is not oily! It does not break out my skin either, which many foundations do.

Highly recommended. This foundation stick goes on smooth, creamy, and a little goes a LONG way. I also like the choices in shade. It also lasts a long time, so you don't have to worry about touch-ups too much. I'll definitely buy it again!

convenient and long-lasting - 09.27.09
Quick Take: long wearing

Love this in Spin the Bottle -- it's a great spot concealer on days when my skin is behaving itself, and it works as a full-coverage foundation on the days when my face is doing its best impression of a pepperoni pizza. It doesn't look cakey or heavy -- Benefit products are great in this regard -- and I like using a regular makeup sponge for blending.

The day Benefit changes the formula or discontinues this product is the day I will protest at their headquarters. Playsticks are a miracle, portable, and the finish is great. CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT THIS.

Fast and Fabulous!! - 09.14.09
Quick Take: awesome!

Love this stick foundation, I tend to want a l little more coverage and this really does exactly what I want it to! I just put a few lines across my face and blend it out with a foundation brush like Sephora's Foundation Brush #47 or Platinum Air Brush #55... Completely flawless coverage without messing with liquid foundations. It's great! My very favorite <3
