Great Foundation for Price.
I have been using this product for years, and it still works. This foundation is a great medium to full coverage.it is definitely build able and is great for oily skin types. The color is a great match and leaves my skin smooth. I always find myself coming back to this foundation after using other more expensive brands.

Satiny Finish, Great Coverage - A Few Pointers
I am the whitest white girl you ever did see. I get this in the lightest shade (ivory) and it's still not a true match / is slightly too dark with a bit of a pink undertone. Why do I keep using it? Because it's the best drugstore foundation I've found overall. Without any foundation on, I have an uneven complexion with redness in my cheeks, chin and the creases of my nostrils. I also have dry skin that can be a bit flaky. If you're in my boat, here's what I do to make this foundation work for me:1) Wash my face with warm water (no soap), exfoliate gently with a wet washcloth, and rub in a small drop of plain olive oil while my face is still moist, then pat dry with a towel. (Olive oil won't clog your pores, is great for reducing visible inflammation naturally, and contains many antioxidants to fight aging like those 100-year old mediterranean people with perfect skin who use olive oil for everything.)2) I apply a pea-to-dime sized amount of foundation to the back of my hand. Using a stippling brush (I use the Real Techniques one - cheap, works great, lasts forever without shedding fibers), I dab this onto my cheeks first, then chin, then blend in everywhere else.Some people complain this foundation doesn't spread well / dries too quickly / showcases dry patches, but using this method with olive oil on the skin beforehand, particularly for those of us with dry skin, I believe eliminates those problems. It spreads beautifully and smoothly with olive oil as a barrier to the skin - I wouldn't try putting this directly on my skin type because my skin is too dry. Your mileage may vary.The coverage is really pretty remarkable in my opinion. I require a medium coverage but prefer full-coverage and this is a great solution. It erases my redness and gives me a nice, even tone without maximizing pores or causing breakouts. Speaking of breakouts, it does okay with covering acne, but I'd recommend going over the pimple by putting a tiny dot of foundation on your clean fingertip and tapping it onto the pimple (after the main / full face application) just to ensure it's evenly covered.I sometimes have to reapply this product if I have a particularly long day, but it's the best looking foundation I've worn for a good price so I don't really mind. To me, it's not worth paying 3x as much to only apply once a day with a more premium brand. Before I had kids, I was a runway model for years so I've had every high-dollar foundation out there applied to my face and I STILL think people are nuts for spending so much on trendier foundations. This foundation, when properly applied, does 80% of the job for 30% of the price. That's a trade-off I can live with.The one thing I don't like about it (aside from the lightest shade not being light enough, which is the case with virtually all drugstore foundations) is that it does transfer onto clothing etc. if your face comes into contact with it. Naturally, I really like hugging my husband, but he's taller than me so a hug often results in a powdery "face smear" right around armpit level of his shirts - tooootally annoying. If he's wearing black it can look like he got in a fight with a bag of powdered sugar and lost. So, buyer beware - keep your face away from anything you don't want a ghostly face print on.Overall, this is a great product at an excellent price point and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.

It's my favorite base.
This has always been my favorite foundation. I never run out of it in my cosmetics because of its matte texture and perfect coverage. I highly recommend it.

Good, but not great!
As a disclaimer, I am a no fuss, minimal amount of make-up kind of gal, so I don't prep with primers or sprays or what-not. In fact, I use my fingers to apply this foundation, no brush or beauty blender. I am a very tan Asian female, so I went with #108 Caramel Beige, which turned out to be the perfect color for me. In general, these foundations tend to have more of a yellow undertone, which is perfect for East Asian and olive skin tones. If you're unsure of which color to buy, you can youtube this foundation and there are lots of reviews and some youtubers even put up swatches of the different colors on their youtube videos. This may help you figure out what color to choose. Anyway, back to the product, this is how I applied it: face lotion and then foundation applied with fingers in a circular motion. That's it. In youtube videos, a lot of the reviewers recommended using a beauty blender, but since I don't have one, I just used my fingers...Pros of foundation:-applies matte-stays pretty matte throughout the day (I have combo skin w/ a very oily T zone)-medium to full coverage-doesn't streak or cake (granted, I don't use very much...)-feels comfortable and blends fairly easily onto skin-great tube! you can just squirt the foundation onto your fingerCons of foundation (or maybe it's a fault with my application...):-T zone still gets oily after 3-4 hours of wear-can be hard to figure out your correct shade (try googling swatches for this foundation?)-have to apply pretty quickly before it sets onto your skinOverall: I'm pleased with this foundation. Will most likely keep buying more until the winter hits. This is definitely not a foundation for dry skin, because I could foresee it being hard to blend on drier skin, which is what I get in the winter months.

Leaves skin soft
I like the finish of the base, it looks like you put on a filter, very good coverage

Good for the price
This makeup is good if you have oily skin. I feel like I’ve used tons of different foundations in the past that basically just wiped off my face because I have oily skin. Its not perfect but its decent.

Meh
I really wanted to love the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Pro-Matte Liquid Foundation, but unfortunately, it fell short for me. The texture is super thick when applying, which makes it feel quite heavy on the skin. Despite my efforts to properly exfoliate and moisturize beforehand, I found that it sits on top of my face rather than blending in seamlessly.Additionally, it tends to cake up in certain spots, which isn't the look I was going for. The color also didn’t appear as natural as I hoped. I even tried mixing it with my moisturizer to thin it out, but that didn’t improve the situation.While I appreciate the longwear claim, I think there are definitely better options out there for a lightweight, natural finish. It might work for some, but it just didn’t hit the mark for me.

Awesome
Was a perfect shade match. It’s not too thick and really easy to blend. Plus it’s long wearing
