1 FOUNDATION FOR ME & U?

i have an obsession with foundation, everything that anyone loves i'll try.. but i always end up disappointed. for some odd reason nothing works for me. its either too greasy or doesnt provide enough coverage for my taste, and its never the right color, ever. i have such an issue with finding a good color match, its an outrage. even my beloved Chanel isnt a perfect color match for me. & im sure im not the only person who goes through this, i know far too many people who struggle to find the "perfect" foundation.

so is there a foundation out there that will be perfect for everyone?


according to Perricone MD there is. the NO FOUNDATION FOUNDATION claims to be the answer to us all. supposedly this foundation will work on anyone and any skin tone. im so curious! i read an arcticle on this foundation on New York Magazine and they did a trial with 10 different women and it seemed to work for everyone. i swear this is impossible! i need to get my hands on this and try it out... but i just dropped $65 on my new Chanel, so i'll wait till that runs out before i try this. but if anyone tries this before me, PLEASE write a review!
