Not for oily skin
Unfortunately this did not work well with my oily skin. It was not a long wear and easily transferred. It just sat on top of my skin.
THE BEST THERE IS
I love this foundation! I generally hate wearing foundation because i hate how it feels on my face. However, this foundation literally blends like butter. It sinks into your face and it feels like you're not wearing any foundation. The coverage is definitely there and lasts ALL day. If you know how to apply foundation, you should have no issues getting this to last. I mean you need to prep your face, do your morning skin routine, then follow up with smashbox primer before applying foundation, and end it with your favorite setting spray. You will be left with a beautiful glowing coverage ALL DAY. So glad i made the switch and gave this a try, now i have my go to foundation.
Terrible for dry skin
Terrible foundation. This just sits on top of your skin and looks awful. Typically dry skin, but all the hydrating skin prep couldn't save it. It's thick and spreads terribly with brush or sponge. Directions say to use your hand to spread and then blend in with a brush. None of that helped. My skin was texture city. Returned.
The most important thing for me was the coverage

This foundation has easily become one of my faves! It is so lightweight. I've never used a foundation that feels like a skin tint, but gives the coverage of a foundation. I think it would be a great foundation for the summer because it makes your skin look & feel like skin.

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
