Good Foundation
I like the coverage this foundation gives on my skin. It’s lightweight and not cakey. A little bit goes a long way, which I love!

Best I have found
I have been a huge fan of the original formula of this foundation for years. I have never found one better. It covers well but manages to mimic the look of bare skin. They have reformulated to make it more powdery and matte, and I am not thrilled about it, but it's still good enough to keep me loyal.

Very natural look
I like the look and feel of this foundation. Color is perfect. However, I am not sure it's worth the price. Not even 1 oz in tube.

Moisturizing but Shiny
I loved the color match for the Koh Gen Do Maifanshi Moisture Foundation I purchased and it's perfectly moisturized for my dry sin. I did take one star off because it was too dewy/shiny.

Great coverage
Nice medium coverage. A little pricey but bought during a 20% off sale. A little goes a long way.

Finish amazing
The finish on this is amazing. It goes on smooth and looks flawless. I had a little trouble with color matching. I picked 0143 but it is just a tad light so I mix it with another cream foundation. I would highly recommend.

A lovely foundation but..
The colors are not quite the same from the Aqua foundation to this one- I purchased the 123, thinking it corresponded to the Aqua foundation by the same brand in the same color, and it did not. The customer service is really good, from this company, so they were nice enough to assist me with the return!

Great for dry, mature skin
This foundation is truly a good one for dry, more mature skin. It has a lovely finish that leans between radiant and natural on me, depending on the skin day. The coverage is light to light medium and is slightly buildable. It’s wonderful for covering any discoloration and providing a smooth canvas. It’s average length wearing and not transfer proof.

Wonderful
As woman in her 60’s who spent too much time in the sun and too little time caring for her skin, it’s difficult to find any product that is going to make much difference. This product, however, does seem to soften lines, even if just a bit. I will re-order.

Natural and easy to apply
This is possibly the most natural looking, non-cakey foundation I've ever tried. And I've tried a lot! It has a more watery texture, but the coverage is exceptional. The jojoba oil was super nourishing on the skin, and it didn't seem to make my skin itch or clog my pores. (I'm super allergy-prone.) This company really knows what they're doing.

Beautiful!!
Ever since I turned 30 in May, foundations that typically worked for me started making me look dry and caked. Makeup was settling into lines, and I started to seriously dislike the feel of makeup on my skin. I ordered this foundation after purchasing samples of a few shades from the Koh Gen Do site. ($7 for 4 samples - kinda crazy but oh well). Once I figured out my shade, I ran here to get a full-size bottle for a better price. This foundation gives me about medium coverage (my preference), but I can layer it up for full. It is comfortable on the skin, doesn’t dry me out, and looks stunning all day (I do prime, set, and spray my makeup always). The only downsides to this foundation is the price when not on sale, the size (0.8 oz, most foundations are 1 oz) and shade range. BUT, if there’s a color that matches you, you’re really going to enjoy it! Although it’s a pain in the butt, I would suggest ordering samples from the Koh Gen Do site to get your perfect match–that is, if you’re not near a place that sells this product to try it on. I was surprised I was shade 112!! (My sister was the lightest 001).

Nice, Sheer
This foundation comes in nice colors for fair skin. I tried both 002 and 113 both were light enough. The 113 is perhaps more neutral, the 002 more pink. Both are so sheer that the pigment aspect is not very impactful. It is buildable without caking, though. And gentle on the skin. I was surprised that this foundation looks matte on me perhaps my zinc sunscreen sucks some of the moisture from it? This is a lovely, elegant foundation, but I prefer a bit more coverage and a dewier effect. It won't go to waste, but I won't repurchase.

Great products
Really love Koh Gen Do foundation and originally was a huge fan of the high definition. It's absolutely fun to try different types of makeup and this received great reviews. After a few weeks of use have gone back to the first one (mentioned above). No problems with shine but doesn't seem to cover as well and appears more sheer. Maybe in the summer I'll switch back although doesn't seem to be as hydrating either. Again, love the company but not my favorite so 4 stars it is!
