I have tried many different foundations, so heavy or greasy or comes off on clothes, I kinda gave up, but then I got a sample with a beauty purchase & Wow! So light & full coverage! Feels like I have no make up on, I love it! Worth every penny!
I don't normally wear foundation, cover-up, or powder. However, the complexion of my skin isn't quite as good as it used to be, so I decided it was time to start wearing foundation. I wanted something light, that looked natural when wearing it. I tried on a couple different ones at the store before buying this one. I love it! I have a smaller face and use 1/2 to 3/4 of a pump to cover my entire face. It dries quickly, doesn't rub off, and looks lovely. Great quality and truly worth every penny. I have dry skin, so I put on a couple applications of body lotion before applying the foundation and that works well for me. I highly recommend this product.

Proslight, flawless, natural
I have search for years, and I mean YEARS, for the right foundation for me and this is it! The term invisible skin is a perfect description of this product. It has become a staple for me. Put it on in the AM and it goes right through to evening.!

Loved the finish but too drying

It took me 2 tries to find the color match on this foundation. I'm a NW 15-20 and the Rose Clair 12 was a perfect match for me. I initially loved this foundation and was thinking this was the perfect foundation for my almost 60 year old skin.
The coverage is medium and dries off nicely without looking cakey - both flawless and natural. I also felt that it has decent staying power. So what more could you ask for, right?
After a week I developed some decent dry patches on my skin. I was using some new vitamin C serum on my skin, so I stopped that, got my skin back to almost normal but the dry skin continued. So I stopped using the Guerlain and in a couple of days the dry patches were gone. I'm back to using the vitamin C serum and still no dry patches. I tried again to add the Guerlain as I really love the finish, but the dry patches were right back after a couple of days. From my reasonable deduction along with alcohol being in the top 5 on the ingredients list, I'll have to move on to a less drying foundation.
It's a difficult process as my skin is combination. Always a search to find a foundation that doesn't slide off my T-zone, looks natural but also somewhat matte that doesn't suck the moisture from my skin.
Strangely enough, powder foundations are working best for me at this point. You would think they would accentuate any dry patches but so far they don't cause any flakiness.
For those that can wear this Guerlain without it drying out their skin - good for you as it's really a beautiful finish.
