Very surprised
I recently purchased this and am very surprised how well I like it. I was seeking something that would provide decent coverage, and not feel mask-like or sweat off in this horrible heat and humidity. I have dry skin and typically have a hard time with foundation not making me look older because of settling. I apply two smaller pumps of this and use a dampened sponge to blend. It is easy to blend and provides a very pretty natural to satin finish. I did have a day outside where i was sweating terribly on my face and after using a paper towel to dab away the sweat my foundation held up flawlessly.
Wow!! Beyond impressed!!!
I have tried what feels like a milllllion foundations and bought this one on a whim when it was a dash to beauty deal. Despite the not so great reviews, I said why not because it was half off. And I am SO glad I did!!! This is now in my top 3 favorite foundations of all time!! The finish is absolutely beautiful, it's medium to full coverage and not cakey at all. It literally looks like you're wearing a filter and lasts me through my 10-12 hour work day where I am constantly running around and looks absolutley flawless by the end of the day. I am shocked about how great this foundation is and I am absolutely in LOVE!
Impressive
I'd like to start off by saying I'm very impressed after my first application. I got it cuz it was 50% off and decided to try it out. I was more than pleased to discover that it truly is long lasting! It lasted all day running errands in triple digit heat and stood matte without looking dry and cakey! I have combination skin that leans a little more on the oily side and i have trouble keeping my face from looking greasy after an hour with other foundations, not without my skin looking terribly dry or cakey anyway. My face has never looked more flawless and even because it delivers great coverage while also feeling lightweight. I'm so glad I took a chance on this! I definitely will be purchasing again.
NEW FAVORITE
I normally use Estee Lauder Double Wear but decided to try this when they did the 40% off steal.Hands down love this so much better.I have aging skin and some days I am dry and some days I am oily. Sets so well on my skin without having to use a setting powder,just use all nighter setting spray and my skin looks great all day.
In love with this foundation :)

I was truly impressed by this foundation and how great my skin looked after wearing it for 16 hours. I am very pleased that I didn't have to set it with powder. My skin was luminous, hydrated, and felt very light. I loved that with just a little product, my skin looked even and well-covered. I also appreciate the compact size of the bottle. The shade was perfect.I have very dry skin and it worked marvelous.

- Q
I wear smash box 2.3 foundation but it's discontinued. What is the exact same shade in the new smash box foundation formula?
- Asked by Sarah
- Official Answer By Smashbox USWe totally understand how frustrating it is when a go-to shade gets discontinued. If you were wearing 2.3 in the previous Smashbox formula, the closest match in the new Smashbox Always On Skin-Balancing Foundation is typically L20-W (light with warm undertones). Depending on your undertone preference and how your skin pulls the shade, you could also swatch L20-N if you prefer something more neutral. We’d recommend checking it out in person if possible, or reaching out with a bit more info about your undertone - we’re happy to help you fine-tune the match!Was this answer helpful to you
