Works more as a skin tint
I think this product is like more of a skin tint due to the light coverage it gives. It feels extremely breathable. I can wear it all day long and forget that I'm even wearing makeup. I have sensitive and acne prone skin, so I've tried many foundations in order to find one that doesn't make me break out. This one is perfect if you have skin like mine. I didn't give it a 5 star because there are a few cons that I experiences. Those include, not blending well with my concealer and setting powder, and the foundation isn't very buildable. It starts to get cakey if you apply too many layers or too much product. Overall, I think it's great if you want an extremely light coverage foundation that takes away redness and makes your skin feel healthy.

Light coverage poor shade range
I don’t notice breakouts caused by this. It’s light to medium coverage if you build but it only goes so far. Of course it’s expensive and has very little product. It’s dewy, so oily skin may not like it. The undertones are way off and most are orange. I have a fair/light skin tone with a yellow undertone and even the lightest “yellow tone” shade looks pink on me. And if you’re olive forget it you’ll find no shades that match here.

Blends in and creates a more event complexion
I use both this and the regular Oxygenetix foundation. This is great for those days where I have active breakouts and am experiencing extra oiliness during that time of the month. I like to apply it after my sunscreen with my fingers, as it seems to blend in the best for me that way. I tried using a beauty blender with it and it tended to stick more to the blender than my skin, so my preferred method is with my fingers. Regarding coverage, I find that one layer definitely does not cover the redness, but it does lighten it. You would definitely need to go over with extra layers or with concealer. As far as longerwear, it takes longer to oxidize but will stay on longer if used with setting powder.

Nice makeup
This makeup gives good coverage and feels light on my face. I like it a lot, but I only buy it when it’s on sales as it is expensive.

Good foundation for problem skin
I like the dryer texture of this foundation. Does not cause additional breakouts. Stays on skin all day. Does not come off on clothing either. Took off one star due to price. Not much product and quite pricey for what you get but I like the foundation and will continue to use it.

Not Bad
Not bad product, I like that texture and variety of tones, dries the skin a bit though and the size is rather small.

I like it a lot
I like this foundation a lot, and I only have two small hesitations that keep me from giving it 5 stars. The first is that it feels slightly tacky on my skin, not much, but a little more than I’d like. The other is that it seems to go a tad bit orange-y by the end of the day. But I haven’t had a single break out since I started using it and it feels light on my skin, like I have no makeup on. It is a great product.

Not bad
I like that it's supposed to help treat your acne while you're wearing makeup however for some reason, I find the original foundation a lot better for my skin. I don't get as smooth an application with this foundation even doing the same thing/applied the same way. I find this one is a bit more drying (prob due to salicylic acid) and clings to my dry patches or areas a bit more than the other.

First-time use
I like the texture of this foundation, doesn’t make my skin greasy. I do se a light moisturizer prior to it. The coverage is light, but if you use a small concealer brush & let it set fir a moment, a light second touch gives more coverage. I have light neutral skin tone with medium brown hair & blue eyes...the “Opal” shade is just perfect tor me.

Oxygenetix acne control foundation
Color matches my skin tone. It is gel like, if face isn't moist it is hard to blend. Foundation still transfer some to my mask, but I kind of figured it would since my skin is very oily. My skin doesn't get irritated and create acne wearing this foundation. It seems to helps acne heal faster.

Works great
This is a great product that my aesthetician recommended. The only thing is it can go on a little thick. I do wish there size was a bit bigger. But, the product overall is great.

Good product
I do not wear foundation often, but I do wear this one a few times a week. It is good but a tad heavy in my opinion but that may be because I am not great with makeup. Perhaps because I do not wear makeup that often but the face definitely looks like you have makeup on. The coverage is good though and it is good for your skin which is why I pay the hefty price tag. It is a good product that I recommend.

Good but...
not as great as I expected. Application can be a bit difficult as it tends to sit on top of the skin and not blend very well. The coverage is on the light side so several applications are needed to achieve fuller coverage. I think I will repurchase for summertime, when my skin is free from any blemish scars that require coverage.

Nice Foundation for acne prone skin
It's a nice foundation for acne prone skin. It doesn't exacerbate your problem, and it is good for your skin. However, the coverage is not all that great. If you already have a great skin then it will make your skin look better. Except for the coverage, I like this foundation.

Excellent product — repeat customer
I first bought this at the dermatologist office upon the recommendation of one of the doctors who says it is all she uses for makeup. I love how it evens out my skin tone. My only wish is that it was a little more matte, but I solve that with a dab of a mattifying cream.

It worked well for coverage
The foundation works very well to cover my dermatologist treated acne and does not irritate nor clog my pores, which is a first for me. It does feel tacky to the touch though and takes some getting use to. I plan to keep using it, and I suffuse others with acne try it out. I was able to match my skin tone with no problem.

Good product, slightly more coverage
I was pleasantly surprised with this product. I've been using the Oxygenetix foundation because my skin is prone to acne. I like the original version so I thought I would give this a try. It seems more matte with slightly more coverage. I'm not sure that the salicylic acid provided benefit. This is a good product and I will continue to use.

Nice but not perfect
Great light coverage but definitely not a full coverage. It doesn't matter how many layers I put it on, it can't hide the dark post acne scars I have, but it definitely hides redness and my mild acne scars that are more pink and not brown or red. Another problem - the product is a little bit sticky to the touch after fully absorbed so it needs to be powdered after. On the other hand it stays all day, does not cake and does not irritate or break me out. Specially I love the feeling of this product on me because it really feels like you don't have any makeup on and the skin really breathing. It is a great everyday makeup because your skin looks natural and healthy in daylight so you can hide the majority of your skin problems without looking like you're loaded with makeup, and also it actually helps treating the problems of the skin.
