    Q
    Hi, I used Fresh Ivory and looking to go back to it, I read it's not just IVORY I should by. I do want to know though, since this is silicone base I should not use a water primer correct? They would counteract I'm sure? Also, what type of SPF and setting spray should I use? I don't want to look to dry so I would like a hydrating spray but not water based.

    New formula not working for me

    By Sue

    From Oswego, IL

    Have worn Acne Solutions for many years and considered it perfect foundation for me. Last bottle I bought seemed like there was something wrong with it. It turns my fingers white and doesn't blend well and color seems off. Saw others with same complaints who said this is a new formula. Please bring old formula back or I will have to find a new foundation.

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

    Formula Changed…Not for the Better

    Submitted 3 months ago

    By Genny

    From Florida

    I used this foundation for about 10 years. It was my holly grail! Went on smooth and never broke me out. However, the last bottle I purchased was nothing but a disaster. Constant break outs, it clings to any dry patches…but over all it looks extremly cakey and dry on the skin. I tried multiple different moisturizers and primers but nothing seemed to work. I then decided to look into it and read that the formula had been changed. How unfortunate…I went out and purchashed a completely different foundation of another brand that has given me no problems. I would NOT recommend this foundation.
