Babor Gezichtsverzorging Ampoule Concentrates FP SOS Matte Finish 7 Ampoules 7 x 2 ml

I found three really good matches to my skin tone and this is a solid formula at an affordable price, but overall, I had a bad experience with the foundation. One started to separate and another started to leak oil. They are rather heavily scented and the smell is unpleasant Finally, after using them for a while, my skin started to feel slightly itchy. I am glad this product works for a lot of people, but it didn't work for me.

I noticed this is being discounted in stores, and has even been removed from some, so I have been stocking up! I assume stores are replacing this with elf's new Soft Glam foundation (which I have not tried), but I love the formula and packaging of this Flawless Satin one, and have no desire to switch. I love the skin-like finish this has, that is neither too matte nor too dewy. The coverage can be sheered out or can be medium buildable (I like to wear a sheered out layer for a more natural look). This does not stick to my dry patches, and wears well all day on my combo oily/dry skin, and I love the cute frosted bottle with a pump. The only thing I would change, is the removal of the added fragrance. The price is great at only $6, and there are a lot of shades to choose from. I really hope this is not being discontinued, and will still be available to order on elf's site!

Pros: High Medium Coverage Affordable ($6) Good shade range (40 Shades) Satin Finish Skin-like Cons: Highly Fragranced Pump is Difficult To Control (hard to pump out just a little) Shades Dry Lighter/Paler Overall, a gorgeous foundation, if you can get past the strong floral/baby powder fragrance. Also great for anyone on a budget, since it's so affordable! Would repurchase!

The shade I got (bisque - fair-light with neutral undertones) is very similar to Tarte BB w/ Spf 30 in light. PROS: - cheap - good shade range - neutral is actually neutral on me = yay CONS: - fragrance - the pump sucks and does NOT work at all so I have to open the whole thing and dump some on my hand which is hard to control and easy to contaminate so I will likely try to use it up quickly

I hate that I am going to leave this a negative review. This foundation SHOULD get 5 stars—the finish is beautiful and softly matte. The color was a spot-on match. The foundation wore all damn day. And I have super oily skin. I loved everything about it. Then my nose, cheek and chin broke out. Not the easy kind of zits you can zap in a day—these were deeper, small but cystic blemishes. Now I’m middle age and I cannot remember the last time I broke out because of makeup. And I sure can’t remember having a cystic reaction. Too bad. The price is so much better than anything else out there. The finish is better than a lot of high end stuff I have tried. It should be a world-class foundation. I am leaving a 3-star rating because not everyone will have this problem. I wish ELF would re-think the formula for its comedogenic risk. I so wanted to love this.
