A must for my perfect canvas
This is my second and I absolutely love the texture on both its quick and my look is flawless
Awful foundation
This is the worst foundation I have ever tried. If you have texturized skin do not get this!! It is patchy and very hard to blend and work with other cream products. I put on moisturizer and primer!
HORRIBLE FOUNADATION..super dry. I prep my face still was not set that was with hour wearing it. returning it..
Sadly not worth the hype
Goes on very nice, but over time completely separated on my face. Also has a bizarre licorice scent. Very disappointed ☹️
Absolutely love, minus the powder
My absolute go to! I’ve tried other popular and highly recommend foundations such as the Nars light reflecting, Haus Labs, and Makeup by Mario; but none of them quite compare to this product. I’m absolutely obsessed. I’ve purchased this product 3 times and I’ll always restock. This product works surprisingly well with my oily skin, I typically have a lot of redness in my skin particularly around my nose and blemishes. This product does an amazing job at camouflaging those areas while still...
DONT USE WATER BASED PRIMER
This product works really nicely, I usually end up putting it on with the brush then patting with a beauty blender. You CANNOT use water based primer with this. Either use a silicone primer or no primer at all. The reason people are having results with separation is due to using a water based primer!
Not for aging skin
I’m pretty disappointed in this product. I wanted to give it more than 1 star but there’s really not that much good I can say about it. It feels heavy, it emphasizes every pore and fine line, which isn’t great for my 40 year old skin. Finally, for such an expensive product, there is very little product in the case. The case itself is beautiful though. I’m going to be returning it. Actually, k can’t wait to wash this off my face tonight.
Was not suitable for my mature skin
I was excited to try this foundation, and was really hoping to love it, but it was not a good fit for my mature skin (I’m 55), that tends to be on the drier side. I did apply my usual skincare products first, followed by a dewy moisture spray, but instead of giving my skin a nice glow, this foundation looked very matte on me. Unfortunately, it will be returned.
Eh
Worked great before summer came. no matter what product or fashion I prime, set & spray it in, literally melts off my face. Even if I dab it it just comes right off. Though it is lightweight, not at all for summer. Which is upsetting considering. The price point.
Good but not for oily skin
good coverage’ but it would make me looks very cakey. & I’m thinking cause my face is naturally oily, it would fall off, even with primer
A never-have in my routine
Horrible texture and sits on top of the skin, I wish I could get my money back.
Shattered
Came broken. Packaged horribly. And now I have two wait and jump through hoops just to get this problem fixed?
I Wasn’t Ready for This Level of Flawless
After getting hit with a deeply inconvenient, recurring episode of adult acne, I went from getting away with MAC Studio Fix powder my entire life to needing foundation every single day. Needless to say, I’ve tried nearly every foundation on the Sephora market… This duo must be made by magic monks who worship the beauty gods! It’s baller, hands down the best I’ve ever used and super convenient for travel to boot. The colour matching/pigmentation is unparalleled. One sweep of the foundation...
Not sensitive skin approved
2 stars because it looked amazing on my skin, until after a few hours of wear and my skin had little pimples and bumps all over. It was a combination of an allergic reaction and breakout. I never breakout either so don’t know why but do not recommend
Do not recommend
This makes my skin look cakey and clings to dry patches regardless of skin prep, exfoliating, etc. It has very light coverage and doesnt hide my hyperpigmentation. Within 1 hour it seperates and makes me look greasy. Worst foundation I've ever used. The only good thing I can say is they have a good range including olive tones.
Didn’t work out.
This brand has a beautiful selection of colors, but this foundation made my face breakout badly.
Never going back to liquid foundation
In love with this perfect light weight foundation. Normally I’m very picky when it comes to powder and didn’t think the powder was going to be just as well performing as the foundation but it does. Instead of trying tinted moisturizers or light coverage liquid foundations, go for those product. It’s 1 minute and done. Perfect for us women that have more mature skin and want our natural beauty shine through. If you’re looking to bake cakes, this is not your product. Hello natural beauty, bye...
Natural Skin Finish in a Travel Friendly Compact
I’ve really been enjoying the Patrick Ta cream foundation. It definitely leans more natural with a soft matte dry down, which I love. If you lightly apply the cream to the face and then very lightly set it, it honestly just looks like skin. If you go in with too much powder on top though, it can start to look a little makeup-y, so a light hand is key. One of my favorite parts is how convenient the compact is. Having the cream foundation and setting powder together with the mirror makes it...
No for dry skin
I love the lightweight formula, it’s similar to the kosas oil tint— but after it dries, it’s terrible! I don’t have dry skin but somehow this makes me look like I do. I’ve tried with and without primer and everytime I want to take it off
Best for super dry skin that is not acne-prone
I picked this up for $13 on IPSY. I got the shade tan 1. For reference, I am a Fenty 420, so tan 1 is my concealer shade. Overall, this product is best worn in VERY LIGHT layers and blended with a sponge. If you put too much on, it will feel like a hot and greasy covering on your skin. I have repurposed this as my no-makeup makeup concealer, and so far, so good. It's perfect for my undereyes and blends in seamlessly with my skin's texture, so you don't see a differentiation between my bare...
Great for mature skin!
Really like this duo. The foundation sits beautifully on my skin the powder is very underrated. I have nature dry skin and it doesn’t emphasize dry areas and it still looks great at the end of the day
Excellent produit! Choix de couleurs magnifiques! Ils ne sont pas trop jaunes comme plusieurs marques le sont…
Make sure to Prep properly and Powder lightly
I would definitely recommend using a not too greasy moisturizer because it will make the product kind of separate and get into your pores (mind you I prepped my skin and I’m oily/combo). I wouldn’t go too stingy on the product otherwise it’ll not look the greatest. Overall, I like the natural coverage as it officially does not only as I want it to look but better as an actual foundation compared to the glossier stretch balm.
Really love this
Really love this. I tried it without prepping my skin at all just to see of the shade was good and it melted into my skin and lasted all day. Cannot wait to try it with properly prepping. The shade match was unreal and its very lightweight, i can still see my beauty marks which I love
It’s ok
Love the colour match and I do feel like it blends good but even with the loose powder, my face gets really greasy after a while. I have combination skin so maybe it’s not a fit for me. It’s disappointing because I really wanted to try this product.
Convenient & flawless finish!
I love the convenience of having a compact foundation and powder duo it makes my makeup routine so much faster. The finish is beautiful, and even with my oily skin this holds up really well. I usually do my makeup in the morning and only need a light touch-up in the evening. The powder sets everything perfectly, keeps me shine-free, and gives a natural finish that doesn’t feel heavy on the skin. I also love that I can carry it with me for touch-ups, though I don’t often need to. I’ve gotten...
I wanted to like it but....
First shipment, the product came cracked. 2nd shipment, I used it 4x and it started to smell. highly disappointed. felt very greasy
Only full foundation I will use, Patrick Ta nailed this formula and combo.
best cream foundation
very easy to apply & work with. a little goes a long way & can definitely build up coverage. my new favorite it does not feel heavy at all & it looks so smooth on. im not a fan of dewy finishes therefore i prefer cream formulas over liquid and this one is my new favorite.
Get it!
Secret weapon. This duo applies well, feels weightless, lasts all day. This looks great on camera too! I love the packaging, looks pretty and very convenient to carry both foundation and powder on the go.
Not full coverage.
This was not at all a full coverage foundation. I purchased while out of town to cover rosacea. I will be returning.
Great foundation
I love this. It did a full coverage sometimes it was too much for my acne, but I used it as much as I can, and I’m gonna re-order another one.
Didn’t love the way the foundation set on my skin but the finishing powder is great!
Great shade match, not great for my dry skin
I’m torn on this one. On the one hand, this foundation in Shade 4 is one of my best foundation matches ever. On the other hand, on my dry skin this creme foundation emphasizes my dryness and didn’t last very long. I’ve tried this extensively with various primers (ELF Power Grip didn’t help much with longevity) and various sunscreen and moisturizer combos underneath. I always started out loving how my skin looked. This gives a definite satin finish on my skin, so there’s not too much of a...
Beautiful smooth complexion
Love this formula. Great coverage and leaves my skin lawless and feeling smooth and hydrated without looking cakey.
Love this stuff. So easy to apply and great coverage. Like the setting powder that comes with it. I also just purchased a bottle of liquid foundation yesterday.
Try before you buy
I wanted to like this but the foundation would come out crumbly and just sit on top of my skin. The powder was fine. Would not recommend.
Quite the forgotten gem
If all my makeup were to spontaneous combust and I had to start over, Haus Labs foundation and this one would be the first two base products I'd throw hands to collect. The beauty in this formula is how grippy it is on the skin while maintaining a skin-like finish. It doesn't look like foundation on the skin. It looks very natural. The only other foundation I have that does this, is Haus Lab's. It lasts all day (given that you set it properly) and other cream products applied on top does...
Nice foundation…..but
I will say that this is a very nice product and the packaging is luxe! However the problem I am having with most foundations, is that the undertones are wrong from my skin tone, the texture of this is great. But the undertone was all wrong for my skin tone. It gave me a “grayish” look . I had to return it
Love but very little product
I actually love this foundation but unfortunately ran through it way too fast:( it took my skin like two days to adjust to the creme but once it did my makeup was flawless. Would give it 5 but not enough product.
Poor product
Product came broken. This is not the first item from Patrick Ta that completely breaks apart. Disappointing. Save your money
My new go to. 
I have never written a review on a product before, but this product impressed me. I have large pores, combination, skin, fine lines and some melasma. even after a 12 hour shift at work, my skin looks even and smooth. Not cakey, not greasy. I really do love this product.
10/10 product
This is amazing my skin looks so smooth and skin like !
Not recommended
It smells like you have petroleum on your face, not applies evenly and crackles
Careful if you have sensitive and acne skin
After a few hours I started to shine so badly and it look bad in my skin, but the worst part is that gave me a break out! 1 year treating my acne rosacea and I try this product and my skin is bad again :(
After using this product it’s not the best for oily skin
Most incredible makeup product I EVER used!
This product is all you need in your makeup kit. The cream is so blendable and looks natural if you wear a light layer and can be buildable to full coverage. The powder is very smoothing and blurring. This is holy grail status for me. I have never used a product this good! Thank you Patrick Ta!
Not for mature skin
I really wanted to love this and if I had younger smooth skin I probably would. This settled into my fine lines and didn’t work well on my textured skin.
So so product
I like the foundation and I don't like the powder. It doesn't work at all and it behaves like stone
Too expensive to be broken
The powder isn’t pressed well and arrived completely shattered.
Still a fave
This is my favourite cream foundations, it's super easy to blend and glides on easy. I am a big fan but I do find that if you're on the dryer side it can look flaky. It is pricy for what you get
Amazing foundation
Love this duo. A little goes a long way and it sets all day. I have a really hard time finding a shade that matches my skin tone and this is perfect.
This powder arrived all broken, please return the funds
Best for your money! Crème/powder in a compact! ☺️
Chefs Kiss to Patrick Ta! I matched myself perfectly and the shade was on point! The compact is slightly weighty and beautifully made. The details were so gorge that I didn’t know how to open it! Love this brand!😘😘😘
Patrick ta can do no wrong
I love this foundation. The color match is amazing so I use it to spot conceal most days. I don’t put much on and the finish is amazing. This literally gives me glass skin and I get so many compliments whenever I wear this
i really like this brand, the quality of product, packaging and finish is really worth the price. would i recommend this product, yes absolutely.. the reason for a 4 star rating was not finding the right shade .after purchasing multiple shades i ended up returning all of them. the last one i tried was medium 3, the undertone was too dark while the previous shades were too orange or too pink. the rest of the his products such as cream and powder blush, eyeliner gel and liquid foundation are...
Wanted to Love This!
I really wanted to love this foundation! On the first 1-2 initial wear I felt like it went on seamless, lightweight, and looked like skin! But I quickly began to notice that the make-up was breaking down a lot quicker than I was anticipating (even with prepping my skin beforehand with primer and moisturizer). Super bummed, but with that happening along with the pretty hefty price tage, I had to go ahead and return it.
I loved this crème compact makeup! I’m giving it a 5 star, because I have oily skin and it different kept my oils in place such as giving me a smooth satin finish. I definitely say it’s worth the money!
Not worth $52 for something that breaks you out
$52 I feel the price went up I definitely don’t think it worth $52 your better off with Dior stick or hourglass which is my current fave usually I’m not crème stick person but hourglass has to be my fave to say I still have this and still looks new says a lot
ive purchased a different shade and ended up returning it for this one instead. this is the right shade and undertone for me. regardless of the wrong shade that was purchased, i still think this product is worth the money.. this brand really offers great products from foundation (liquid and cream/powder), blushes and brushes.
Meh
Maybe I was using it wrong but I couldn’t get it to look good on me. I tried different primers and different brushes/sponges. I think it just isn’t meant for oily/combo girlies.
Least fave skin product I've purchased.
Idk what im doing wrong but my skin has never looked worse. (Also started to smell off after ~ four months.)
this brand is now my go to for everyday make up. the foundation is perfect from shade to finish. their complexion brush is also a great tool to use for application.
Beautiful but runs out fast
Amazing!! Long wearing. The foundation runs out a little fast. Wish they sold refillable pans
Patchy and feels oily
Wow this is not a good product. I’m fair/neutral tone and this was SO ORANGE in my skin and the other lighter tones were too light. I prepped my skin properly as well before applying and this product was very patchy, even after warming up the product in my palm before applying. If you want to waste your money, buy this
Like a second skin!
This cream foundation is great! You only need a little bit to get ample coverage and it glides on beautifully. It is very skin-like.. I'm not sure I'd necessarily suggest it for somebody with oily skin, somebody with acne-prone skin, or somebody with a lot to cover but I have normal to dry skin with a bit of an oily t-zone and I don't need tons of coverage so for me, it works well. I'm not in love with the powder portion of the product but the cream foundation is A+ IMO.
So so good looks like skin
Perfect color match. I NEVER find anything with my undertones and this cream foundation is IT! So easy to apply, really quick I use a beauty blender. It’s not cakey and the powder and cream foundation mix well with other products without getting patchy.
Beautiful foundation
I didn’t think I would love this foundation as much as I do. But it is the best foundation I’ve ever used for my skin. I use only a light layer to hide my redness and it looks so beautiful on the skin. My new go to makeup product!
I am having a difficult trying to find a good Make up. This almost works for me. I am 91 years old and currently wearing Patrick Ta foundation , I would prefer to wear no makeup but I spent many years in the sun and my skin is very blemish After playing golf for Fifty years my ski is very sun damaged. The foundation and the powder seems to be the answer. It hides a lot of discoloration, however by the afternoon my skin is very dry and I must use more moisturizer. If I am doing anything...
Not for oily skin
Looks beautiful when it’s first put on but it did not last through the day and unfortunately it made me break out. I was so disappointed because I love the idea of the foundation and setting powder all in one. palette. I had to return it
Shows every crease very blotchy
I tried different ways of applying this foundation and it was still awful. Within an hour I felt like a grease ball and it was blotchy. Showed every crease I had. I don’t have many I’m only 32. The finishing powder was awful too. Very disappointing
my new favorite foundation !!!
I am absolutely thrilled with the Major Skin Crème Foundation and Finishing Powder Duo by Patrick Ta! This foundation delivers everything it promises and more. The texture is lightweight, yet it offers incredible, buildable coverage that still looks natural. My skin feels hydrated throughout the day, and the luminous finish leaves me with a healthy, radiant glow. It blends seamlessly and evens out my complexion without settling into fine lines or looking cakey. I got Light 3, it is light...
If you are any kind of Asian or Asian mix and have difficulty finding a perfect match, look into Patrick. He knows which tones work best for that skin type.
Not for oily skin. Looks so natural and soft when first applied but after 3 hours, I already shiny (and this is with primer AND setting spray on). It also leaves a weird waxy smell on my face. :/
Great foundation, leaves skin looking natural while evening out complexion. My go to for going out or when I need to look more refined.
My favorite foundation. I am obsessed with the crème formula, it blends like a dream and the powder is perfect too. This is a STAPLE in my travel makeup kit. So convenient.
Yasss!!!
3rd one!!! Bought one for my mom, and now second for my aunt! They both and love and highly recommend. whenever I do there makeup it’s such a smooth finish on there skin, easy to apply and great to travel with. Can’t wait to get one for me soon
Still looked great after 13 hours!
I wore it for the first time today and am so thrilled! I have insanely greasy skin, large pores, and also dry patches from tret. It looked great at the end of the day - didn’t slip, get cakey, or stick to dry patches. Love this and am now checking out other Patrick TA products!
It felt cakey..
This product is a full coverage product, personally I wasn’t pleased with how it felt on my skin. It does create a blurring effect after a WHILE when you use the setting powder. The foundation felt like a thick mask on my face which was a problem for me. Other that that it does what it needed to do.
Seriously?! Worst foundation ever! Save your skin , looks, and money
A hard pass
I wanted to love it but it smelled horrible and the formula didn’t work for me. At this price point I was upset - didn’t return it - I threw it away tho.
Best foundation ever
Love this foundation!!! I have a combo skin and this is perfect for me. You can decide if you want something light coverage or full coverage. Best part is that It gives me a natural finish.
I have dry sensitive acne-prone skin and although this gives me acne….. the finish is pretty good. If you don’t have acne prone skin I would recommend!
Talc beware
Very surprised it’s very expensive and it does have talc in it, not good 👎
Worth the hype
It took me a while to figure out how to use this foundation. But now that I have I understand the hype. What I found works for is me is being very very well moisturized, and no primer. Every primer I tried with this (nyx,Armani,smashbox,talk) didn’t work. Then I took a small amount on the Patrick ta brush and stippled it then went in with a beauty blender. Definitely worth the hype, and I loooooove the powder. Easy to travel with and last for 10+ hours
Dry skin cult fave
Impeccable. Ta knew what he was doing with this - not for oily people since it is more dewy but it could work if you see it properly. Beautiful skin like finish. And the best part? It doesn’t settle into smile lines.
Great but not the powder.
This foundation is really good. Easy to apply with a brush, finish it with a sponge. The finish is natural, it makes you look very good, blurred and radiant. But the powder is unnecessary. I get that this is their whole concept for literally all of their products but I would rather have the cream and powder separated because I have my powder from Hourglass that actually goes so well with this foundation. That would also avoid this foundation being at an outrageous price of $52. The two...
It has the most amazing skin like finish that still covers discolouration. The colour match was also spot on. It does however cling to dry areas.
Finally found IT!!!
I’ve spent more time and money trying to find the makeup that works for me than I care to admit. THIS! This has changed the game for me. I’m 40 with skin on the drier side, occasional blemishes. I can see how this would not be a good option for oily skin girls. But dry skin?? YES. Applied CORRECTKH this goes on like a dream. And I sweat A LOT and it stays put. GET IT!!!
Worst foundation by far
I was so excited to try this foundation and purchased it to try out as an option for my wedding makeup. The first time I used it I applied with a foundation brush and it was so cakey and pulled everywhere. I tried following up with a beauty blender and then my fingers to no avail. So upset because of how much I spent on this trash.
This foundation is beautiful. Thank you Patrick ta love the formula.
he puts the TA in ATE
First foundation I've ever bought and I am super happy. I was so pleased at how versatile this product was; I was able to use this as a spot concealer and an under eye concealer, as well as a very light coverage lightweight dewy skin blurring tint, all the way to a full matte BEAT. The powder it comes with is great and matches perfectly, so I didn't. even have to worry about buying a powder separately to match. This formula is super malleable and I could potentially see it having some...
Oily Girlies: Skip This Foundation
Was super excited to try this foundation, but no matter what I do, it just slides all over my oily face, and if I use the setting powder or any other one, it looks cakey and separtes soooo much. Not for oily skin girlies
Must have in your makeup bag for on the go.
. The foundation provides just the right amount of coverage without feeling heavy, while the powder sets everything in place beautifully. I love how it evens out my complexion without looking cakey. Plus, the compact design makes it perfect for on-the-go touch-ups.
12 out of 10 for me
I’m in my early 40’s, it was time to update my makeup game as drugstore brands just weren’t cutting it anymore. I searched out foundations for dry skin and came across this brand. After I tried it at the store I was so impressed, a cream was the way to go, I love the feel, it blends beautifully and lasts all day. I am very pleased with this product. Great job Patrick, you have been spoiled me.
Holy grail
Omg , this is my new go to foundation , I cannot say enough how much I love every Patrick Ta products and this is a 10/10 for me
Perfect
As a woman of color I was curious to see if I would find a good match to my complexion. I was pleasantly surprised to find my perfect shade
Really good!
I like this foundation, you have to make sure you don’t out too much or it can feel heavy on the skin. This is perfect If you wear the right amount
Hands down the best.
Absolutely the best thing I’ve tried since Door AirFlash. I love this. You don’t need to cake it on. It takes very little to cover. Follow his video tutorial. Love the entire line. Hands down looks beautiful on my over 65 skin!!
Really wanted to like this
Unfortunately this foundation feels so cakey. Especially if you’re a sweaty girl. I BARELY break a sweat and it feels like I have Vaseline on my face. It moves around no matter how much I set it. It looks nice the first couple hours but if you’re looking for a long wearing foundation, this isn’t it. I have combination skin and minimal texture
Essential!!
I love this foundation! I have a lot of discoloration and acne scars and it covers really well without feeling heavy!
Not Good Quality
I first bought Light 3, but it was too light so I exchanged it for Light Medium 3. I didn’t notice this with the first one, but the second one smelled funny. It’s hard to explain what it smelled like, but it smells off. I thought maybe I had received a bad one, but then I watched a YouTube review where someone said the same thing. I have a feeling this company has quality issues. Normally I would have exchanged it for another one to give them one more chance, but I really didn’t like the...
Nope!
Clings to pores and makes texture look 10x worse. Very upset after hearing all the hype. Not worth the insane price point
Powder 10/10, cream is ehh undecided so far…
The powder is super brightening for me and I’m a pale girly! love that! I use it every day under my eyes and in the spots I want more brightening. The cream was a little patchy on me last time I used it but always willing to try again!
ATE DOWN PAPA
This product is amazing! Another 10/10 for Patrick Ta it’s great for a daytime look, but might be even better for night time look. Unfortunately, my beautiful brown skin is falls between shades. Color Tan 1 is def more of my summer tone but it’s not too bad where I can pull it off now. Highly recommend!
It’s a no for me
I have combination, acne prone skin. This stuff goes on cakey and shows every single one of my pores. It somehow accentuates every pimple I’m trying to cover. It makes my skin feel gross bottom line.
Great foundation/powder duo, perfect color match
My skin is combo, its a mess lately - breakouts and flaky patches so I wasn’t expecting much from this, I used my trusty milk hydra grip primer first and applied the cream foundation with a brush carefully building up coverage so it looked natural not Camry. I was abused the powder in it and it was fine, I applied my powder bronzer and blush over it and nothing came off , my makeup looked pretty good so I’m pleased with this. Very handy to have a foundation and powder in one, this will save...
Natural finish with nice coverage
This product looks great on my 41 year old dry skin if I use a beauty blender and don’t over apply. It makes my skin look smooth and hydrated with a natural finish. I do not use the powder, but finish with CT setting spray and it lasts all day.
My new every day go to
I use this as a concealer for my dark under eyes and I LOVE that it has a perfectly corresponding powder to set the cream. I love the little plastic window that protects the cream, the foundation is medium coverage, not cakey at ALL, and the powder isn’t patchy at all it’s very soft. I use this every day since I got it!
its a no :(
sorry, i dont remember my exact shade. but this product is so patchy and cakey. i tried everything. i even bought the brush with it. $80 for everything. i thought if i changed my base it would help. nope :/
Not for me
I had decided to pick up this foundation after hearing so many rave reviews about it. I will say that the color match was spot on for me and I liked that about it but, I had quite a few problems with this foundation. I have combo acne prone skin and this foundation did not work out for me. I noticed while putting it on that it started sliding around and coming off the areas where I'm most oily aka the t-zone. A huge spot had lifted from my nose as I was using my beauty blender which doesn't...
Like A Lot, But . . .
I ordered the PATRICK TA Major Skin Crème Foundation and Finishing Powder Duo in Light Medium 2 - golden warm after my daughter told me how much she liked the product. I used the color match function by entering a Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer color that I like- & that worked great. I use a kabuki type brush to apply the creme foundation, & then a large powder brush to apply the accompanying finishing powder overall. I use a primer (mainly on my T-zone) before applying. I like the ease...
Must Purchase!
Love this Product! Best foundation shade match ever. I have neutral undertones and I love how buildable this foundation is!! It does seperate throughout the day because I have oily skin but that's okay!
Favorite foundation of life
Before this foundation I was using NARS and thought it was the only one for me but once I tried this it changed my life the staying power and the blending is flawless makes my skin perfect 100% love
Great product but not for the cost
The foundation and setting powder formulas are wonderful however the amount of product for the cost is dismal. The setting powder starting breaking & I hit pan in the foundation very quickly after purchase.
Love this product so much. Would most definitely repurchase.
Worst foundation on the market
This was really disappointing. I received this as a gift for Christmas and I was so excited to use this but it turned out to be awful. I have tried this foundation with all sorts of primers, water-based and silicone-based, I've tried it without primer with just a clean face and one with moisturizer, and blending with a brush and sponge, yet none of it made this look good. This foundation looked so cakey on me just seconds after applying, it enhanced my skin texture and separated around my...
Alright
I like this product but didn’t meet the viral hype or the price in my opinion.
I’m liking the coverage and skin like finish
I can honestly say I like this foundation. It does look like skin. I dont smell any scent to it. I will be keeping this foundation in rotation.
I've got a new foundation!!!
I love this product!!! I recently started switching my regular makeup routine to all Patrick Ta and my my makeup has never looked better. This goes on like butter and blends out fantastic. The included powder sets the product perfectly
Pleasant Surprise
I was extremely hesitant to buy this foundation as so many reviews said it looked awful on dry skin. I have bad dry flaky skin and let me tell you it practically looks like a second skin. To prep my face I go in with with the NYX plump right back primer which helps a lot with those stubborn dry patches. To apply I dip my foundation brush directly into the foundation and press into my skin. I do not swipe or drag. The powder is amazing too, I use an extremely soft fluffy brush and tap into my...
Would not recommend for oily skin
I tried it on 3 different times to give it the benefit of the doubt but it continued to make my face extremely oily and cakey.
Not for me
Nope nope and nope! The coverage was lightweight and it accentuated my texture on my skin. It was patchy and just no, I wanted to like it but it didn’t work with my skin type
would not repurchase
I think the packaging is pretty, but I think it looks kind of Cakey on textured skin with large pores. I also do not think it wore well, after 2 hours, it was almost completely gone. the shade was a perfect match, but the usability of the package was also not great. I definitely would not repurchase.
Wouldn’t repurchase
I wanted to return after first use simply bc it feels so thick on the skin, however since trying it a few more times I’ve gotten it to work on my skin.(still don’t love the packaging either, looks dirty/scratched) It takes a silicone primer/concealer and a good setting job to work well but looks pretty if you can get it to work for you.
It’s good, but..
The shade match is great, the coverage is great, BUT… the smell is awful! The smell is similar to licorice. I smell it on my face a few hours after application. If they could make this product fragrance free, it’d be great.
Not for oily skin, large pores, or acne scarring
The color matched perfectly, but it was super cakey and shiny! I do have textured skin but with my primer, I usually don’t have a problem. You could see every pore/blemish, and it just didn’t settle well on my face. It smudged and had obvious caking. Would not recommend for oily or textured skin
Did not work for me
I just purchased this today and was super excited to try it out. Not going to lie, it feels a little heavy but isn’t a dealbreaker. The dealbreaker is it started sliding across my chin but stayed everywhere else. I also didn’t like that it looked very cakey so I’ll be returning it. Otherwise, it matches my skin perfectly.
This cream foundation impressively blends seamlessly, while the accompanying powder sets it flawlessly, leaving a soft finish. Its ability to cover blemishes is remarkable, providing effective coverage without appearing heavy. Moreover, its long-lasting formula ensures a polished look throughout the day.
Textured skin/acne - don’t recommend.
I tried to use this product multiple times, it never worked even with the best skin prep and primer. If you have textured skin, it’s not buildable. Doesn’t matter how much you put on. You can set it even with the best setting sprays and powders, you’ll be peeling by lunch or have it wiped off. Will be returning.
Pleasantly surprised!!
I’m surprised that this didn’t work for so many people with dry skin because I absolutely love this! I was afraid it would feel heavy and too oily but it doesn’t. Gives the perfect blurring effect with light/medium coverage!
Save your money!
I absolutely love the Patrick Ta blushes and wanted to give this a try. However, this is absolutely not for dry skin. I tried everything, from prepping my skin, using a primer, hydrating spray and different ways of application including a brush and sponge but to no avail. It's one of the worst products I've tried as it starts separating within the hour. It's cakey and aging and looks cheap.
Poor Quality!
The powder completely shattered soon after getting it. Poor quality powder, would not repurchase. The cream side seems okay but for the price it's ridiculously poor quality and packaging. disappointed
My absolute favorite
By far the best foundation I’ve used. It’s literally everything I’ve wanted in a foundation but never could achieve with liquid/other foundations. I’m able to wear a light coverage to work for 12 hours and it still look amazing !shifts and
Not for dry skin, unfortunately
I wanted to love this product, but it wasn’t for me, I was so sad. I have pretty dry skin so it didn’t work very well for me, it kept looking patchy even with primer and face oils along with it.
Really love it
This color is a perfect match for me! I use this more as a concealer over my spf and it looks super natural. The powder is a nice touch too. I just use my fingers with both and it looks great.
This one is in top 5 favorites!
This was hands down one of my favorite foundation and powder duo my skin looked fantastic !!! This is a must have in your makeup kit for sure!!! No creases full coverage !!!!
Not for dry or normal skin.
The idea of the cream foundation seems so good, but it was not for my skin. I tried applying it with two different brushes and with a beauty blender and there was no winning. It stuck in every crease and pronounced my skin's flaws. It really made my skin look absolutely terrible with bad coverage. The powder did not help, but that did not surprise me as I don't normally use powder. Maybe better for oily skin?
Clogs pores and very sheer coverage!
This makeup goes on beautifully but there are a few problems with it.I have sensitive skin and i had several breakouts while using it. It also gave me a clogged pore (not non-uncomodogenic) which took 3 weeks to clear. The color match was beautiful but was it very sheer and even though i was using it sparingly, it only lasted 1 month. I'm not willing to spend $52 a month on foundation . I'm sticking to my KVD Good Apple foundation.
I was so excited to get this foundation but it just didn’t work for me. It was peeling my entire face.
New Fav Foundation!
Wow - I was shocked by this foundation!! It was so easy to apply with a brush and truly has that “my skin but better” look to it. It’s a nice, natural finish that applies very quickly. I didn’t see it clinging to any dry patches, and in my opinion, it had great staying powder. The powder is also amazing for setting the under eyes! This duo is definitely worth the cash. As a beginner with dry, acne prone skin - you’ve got to try this!
Skip it
It smells so bad and just sits on the skin. After an hour it broke up and enhanced any and all texture on my skin.
Hoped for much more
As others have said, I wanted to love this, but it just didn't work for me. It goes on beautifully but doesn't have any staying power. I tried it a few times with a different base (with two different primers, without primer at all) and different setting powders and sprays... nothing worked. Within a few hours it was streaking and felt greasy (I have combination skin). Sad to return it, but for the price it just isn't worth keeping
Not worth the money
I really wanted to love this.. perhaps if you have very balanced skin this will work but if you are even a little oily, yikes. It looks beautiful when first applied but I noticed at the 4 hour mark it started to look like I had freckles due to how badly it separated. I've tried so many combos of primer, powder and setting spray (and leaving it the hell alone) to no avail. I live in a dry climate and it's winter, maybe that matters.. considering the cost, I really did expect better.
Nothing like it
My holy grail foundation. Gives me the perfect medium coverage to cover up the discolourations but still look like it’s my skin. Just wish there was a product with only the cream foundation part, since I don’t use the powder. Already on my second pan
Wanted to Love
I really wanted to love h tbh is foundation, but it just doesn’t work for my skin. I have tried different ways to apply it, set it and it just separates on me and it makes me look patchy and gross.
Love this product🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼🫰🏼
Holy MF Grail
Just found my holy grail! I’m a fair skinned redhead but not ivory and with very pinkish undertones. Finding the perfect match is difficult for me as it’s usually either too pale or too orange. I’m also an avid retinol user so my skin tends to be very dry and cake up with most foundations. I’ve used everything under the sun and nothing has compared to this. It’s so lightweight and dewy and blends perfectly. The powder is very lightweight as well and doesn’t cause the cakey build up most of...
Wanted to love
I wanted to love this but for a few reasons I will not be repurchasing: 1) lots of product required to get even a little bit of coverage 2) does not last throughout the day even with setting powder 3) setting powder doesn’t do anything 4) price I don’t mind splurging on good foundation but this isn’t it.
Hard to work with, waxy feel, heavy looking, aging
Too expensive! This product is hard to work with and moves around. It doesn’t sit well over other products. I tried a brush and a sponge, it was hard to blend, set into my lines and looked heavy.
Love it
I wore this foundation at a party and it lasted all night. It gives very nice coverage and is really easy to blend. I also love how it comes with a powder. Definitely worth the money, and will be repurchasing :)
It’s really smooth and covers very well. However, it runs out quick (the cream part). I bought the foundation in the beginning of December and I’ve been using it almost everyday for a month and I can already see the bottom
BUY THIS NOW
I love this foundation and powder duo, this is all you need!!! It has a good coverage, the powder it’s perfect, looks like skin!!!! Get it bestie 😍
Extremely drying and starts to disintegrate on the skin within an hour. I loved the color fair 2- neutral but unfortunately, it's subpar and doesn't sit well on the skin at all. I love Patrick Ta's blushes though!
Best purchase I’ve made in a while!
This foundation was purchased on a whim. However I am so glad I purchased it. Definitely the best impulsive purchase I’ve made in a while!!!! The crème is smooth and buildable. Not cakey at all. The finishing powder has an amazing blurring effect that masks all of my imperfections. To be honest I’ve even noticed a change in my complexion since using. My previous foundation was full coverage which always felt heavy and took a toll on my skin. Since switching to this foundation I haven’t had...
A no go for me
This is one of the worst foundations I’ve ever tried. It textured my skin and it really never set on my face. It also feels very heavy and greasy on my skin although its very drying.
Not for me
I really wanted to love this but even with diff primers it made my skin look…aged almost. Probably best for oily or norm skin
Best Cream Foundation!
This is by far the best cream foundation I've tried. I don't usually like cream foundation products. This one is perfection. I'm a MAC NC25-27 and this shade is perfect for me. Upon touching the product, it almost turns into a liquid. It glides on effortlessly. If I'm looking for a real sheered-out, radiant look, I drop a tiny bit of my Ranavat Brightening Saffron Serum and mix before applying. This is perfection! I'm more than happy with this product! I'm 58 and have a few lines (not many...
Smells very strongly of Party City face paint. I had to return it, which I rarely ever do even if I dislike a product. His other products are beautiful and fantastic, maybe I just got a bad compact. But there are pther foundations I enjoy more so I won’t be repurchasing.
Has a smell and looks cakey on skin
I was hoping to love this, packaging was everything. The foundation does make your skin look cakey and will separate at the end of the day. It made my skin smell like mold too.
ACNE PRONE
ACNE PRONE GIRLS!!!!!!! I am so upset because I absolutely love this foundation it looks and wears beautifully but I am very very acne prone and this one definitely did it. I’ve tried it twice hoping it would be ok but I broke out terribly both times and this was the only thing that was different from my normal routine
Beautiful Finish
Foundation feels light but gives good coverage for a nice everyday foundation!
Separates
I’m sad it didn’t work, separated all over my face. Took off my primer to try it on a bare face and it still separated. Didn’t use the powder it came with I used two separate favorite powders. I sadly returned
Horrible for oily skin. I really wanted to like it but after an hour it accentuates all the texture and pores on my skin. Plus I look like an LED light bulb super shiny. It’s so oily it’s separating on my skin. Horrible.
Shade matcher could not match my shade??
The foundation itself isn't that great. It doesn't set. It sits on the skin, slides around, and tranfers very easily. The shade I bought looks awful, and it was the lightest shade I could possibly pick, but there's pink in it. If I went the next shade up it was way to dark. Shade matcher can not match my shade AT ALL! More shades need to be added for sure! The packaging is so difficult to keep clean.
Gorgeous coverage
Looks so natural on your skin, but you can build coverage. Covers my natural redness and acne perfectly! I don’t notice the powder does much when I put it on, and I still prefer my normal setting powder.
I wouldn’t, it’s not worth it girl
For the price? Absolutely not! Buildable coverage, sure & yes the powder is brightening but it makes texture on skin look worse & there’s more affordable options with better coverage. Disappointing
Powder won’t keep foundation in place
I really was not liking this, but if you apply the foundation with a tiny beauty blender it's magic. Color and coverage is nice and buildable. The finishing powder is garbage no matter what. Itdoesn’t stay in pl
0/10 for normal/dry skin
I’ve spent thousands of dollars on foundation over the years and have never once written a review. I have normal/dry skin and this clung to every single patch/hair/pore. It is hands down the most unflattering foundation I’ve ever worn.
Skip out on this one
I went it expecting to love this product as I’ve heard such great things but I was very disappointed. I usually do well with most foundations but this one was so patchy and impossible to apply evenly
Really love it but it’s so expensive I only save it for special occasions.
Yup, You Need This
The best concept in makeup formulation for 2023. Buildable, lightweight, non-greasy, and won’t sink into pores like some liquid formulas. You will need to buy a dense brush to pair with this - the Saie brush would work great for reference. Giving this 4/5 stars because of the packaging. For $50, there should be at least 1oz of the cream foundation. The pallet ends up getting very messy on the sides, and honestly, the powder is not necessary. I’d rather get more of the cream product....
Necessary Addition to Routine
Another win from Patrick Ta! This has amazing coverage in a creamy application that literally absorbs right into your skin just making it look better! Natural finish and amazing wear throughout the day!
Amazing in every way! New favorite in all of my 30 years and in the cosmetic industry as well. My new staple! ❤️
Amazing for mature skin
I am normally a powder foundation girly. Tried this, as I am re-introducing myself to cosmetics after a long pause. Decided to give this a try and it has absolutely become my favorite foundation. The cover and the shade match are impeccable. Full coverage, but feels so light on your skin. Great for mature skin and great for combination skin.
Returned
To begin with , great concept, colors are off , no match for me and the foundation is horrible , it shifts , no not worth it ,
Careful with ordering online
Ordered from Sephora inside kohls during the 20% off deal they had and my product came with the cracked powder. Spoke with kohl’s customer service who advised to me to bring it into the store to exchange it. When I did that, the Sephora employee I spoke with was unhelpful and told me that since they do not carry the product inside the store, she would be able to only return it and that I would have to recorder it and miss out on the 20%…
Horrible break out
After using this product for a week, I had decided to return it due to the worst acne out break I have had since I was in high school. Not only did it send my skin through it, but it also separated on my skin and did not last throughout a day of wear. I am disappointed I didn’t like this and am glad that Sephora took it back. I should also note that that the first time I got it, it arrived completely shattered and I had to exchange it for a new one
Favourite foundation
Amazing foundation for all different foundation looks. Can apply a light amount for natural days and it evens out my skin tone very nicely but also looks bomb for my full coverage looks. LOVE!!
Don’t see what all the hype is about. I used it 3 times and didn’t like the coverage. After a few hours it separated too. This was a no/return for me.
Love this more than I anticipated
Really enjoy this duo, the crème foundation is very smooth and does not fall into fine lines. It can appear very shiny once applied to following with the finishing powder is a must for the center of the face. The finishing powder is divine! Definitely recommend applying it to the center of the face and to lightly set concealer.
DO NOT FALL FOR THE ADS, its HORRIBLE
I got this because of all the TikToks I saw praising it and Im so disappointed, NO MATTER what I do this foundation is horrible. I saw a lot of people saying its great for oily skin but no matter how hydrated my skin is, even to the point where its glistening the foundation is dry, crumbly, and makes my skin look flaky. Ive tried on dry skin. I've tried with brushes and sponges. Ive used 5 different setting sprays, 3 different primers, changed my skincare multiple times. If I use a sponge...
Play dough
Oh gosh this was so bad! Where do I start? First of all the powder side arrived shattered. Also it was soooo thick! I swear every review said it was “so weightless” to me even a thin layer felt and looked like play dough! It even kind of smells like play dough!!! The finish isn’t bad it’s actually pretty nice but I couldn’t stand the way it felt on my skin. and it also irritated my sensitive skin. I want to keep trying it to see if I can make it work but I’m afraid it’s going to brake me...
great product but not worth the price
this foundation is actually beautiful and i’ve never had such a good shade match in my life, but honestly for $52 i don’t think it’s worth it. you have to use quite a bit to get even some coverage, and when it’s in a tin like that i feel like it’s going to run out so fast. it also does unfortunately clong to dry patches quite a bit so if you have drier skin i’d stay away from this one. if they had a bigger tin of it for the price i’d definitely have kept it, but unfortunately this one was a return.
So-so product, gave it a try
Im not a big fan of this product so far. The cream foundation is ok, very dewy on me and seems to settle into lines a little more than I’d like. The powder is giving me hard pan after the first couple of uses already. AndAndwhen
If only I can get the shade right…
I’ve bought 2 shades so far and both are too light. The color matching for this brand is awful, so best to get matched in store. That said, it feels and looks good on the skin. I’ll try one more time to get the match right…
It’s alright
I was expecting more from the hype. When you first apply it looks so beautiful and just like skin, but the staying power is not there. After 4 hours all the makeup around my nose was completely gone. I tried every combo to make this work but it all ended the same way. If you have combo skin I would pass on this one.
Love!
I love this compact! I love the foundation itself; it’s medium coverage but buildable to full and looks like skin! I wore it on several days and my skin looked great even after hours of wear
Bought it because of the TikTok hype. Don’t like it. Yes it’s full coverage but makes the skin look very dry. Not worth the money.
I love it BUT..
I love this foundation, it wears beautifully all day in combination with my Anastasia Beverly Hills setting spray l. But I hit pan in less than a month. For 55 with tax…I think I’ll pass on it next time. Really wanted to keep on repurchasing it. But I don’t think I will.
I’m so happy I tried this! There are very few shades in this range so I’m lucky I was able to find a match. Love that you get two products in one. So easy to apply with a brush!
Absolute love but not enough product!
Loveee this product! The foundation feels amazing and the powder is wonderful. My only issue is I hit pan sooo quickly with the foundation and in my opinion, for the price, it should last much longer. As much as I love it, I will not be repurchasing.
Yes please try
OMG blow's me away you get 2!in one covered cream so you don't get messy. I'm in love I own a couple more shades ❤️🤩❤️
Wanted to love…
I bought the tik tok hype bc my fav influencer showed it and it looked flawless. The packaging is amazing. Goes on feeling smooth and I had no problem blending it. I have never really used cream foundation and I feel like it’s a good fit for me. However…that is where the glowing review ends. Once it is set I feel like it just looks chalky almost? And I got the worst break out I’ve had in a LONG time. So no matter how much I could like it it isn’t an option anymore. Also the powder is crazy...
I like this product
This product was a little too neutral so I mixed it with a drop of orange LA GIRL PRO.COLOR FOUNDATION MIXING PIGMENT and it was a perfect shade for my skin tone.
Nope
Dont let tiktok fool you, its one of the worst foundations i own. Its patchy, it seperates within 5 minutes, its thick and not in the good way, it sits on your skin and shows every dry patch you have even the ones you didn’t know you have. Dont spend your money on it.
Amazing but not much product inside !
I really love this foundation / powder combo but it hit pan soooo quickly. Like within a month and a half. Usually my foundations last at least a few months. I’m debating whether or not to but again.
about an hour after applying you can already notice it starts to get splotchy and separates from my skin. I wanted to love this foundation because tik tok raved about it being the best, and for the price I spent on it I was really hoping it to be great. Did not work for me. I have combination skin. It looks great from far awa. But once you look in a mirror it looks completely awful.
Totally worth it!
I just bought this product and love the way it looks on my skin. I have combination skin, but it hasn't caused any dryness or excessive oil. I'll be buying this again!
If you have combo skin, this product is not for you. I saw it on TikTok and thought it could be a great every day foundation. I’ve used it twice now, with great skin prep, and have had the same results both times. It starts to pill on most of my skin, and gets patchy on my T-Zone. I tried the recommended app I location method, beauty blender, fingers, nothing works. It’s unfortunate too because it seems to work so well for so many people! Also, I got it shipped because they didn’t have my...
BEAUTIFUL FINISH
This is the perfect, everyday foundation. Very lightweight with buildable coverage. The powder is very fine and sets beautifully. I’m so glad I picked this up! 10/10 recommend!
Game changer?
Hope I found my foundation. I have been on the hunt for something that feels light and melts without making me feel oily and this product hasn't disappointed yet.
This cream foundation is amazing! It feels incredibly comfortable on your skin and it's so lightweight.
Broke apart
I purchased the shade light medium 1, the shade itself was beautiful. It looked great after application… however I wore it to work. I allowed it to stand the test of time and it completely cracked on my face. My face looked like the desert floor…. Cracked dry and flaky. I have normal skin, I apply great face prep and didn’t change my usual routine with powders… it looked horrible. Don’t believe the TikTok hype. Patrick ta has other great products but not this one.
Terrible Smell
Smells beyond awful. Very thick and heavy. If I️ mix it with a face lotion to thin it out that helps.
Wow Wow Wow!!!
Best Best Best fondation!!! Just wow! Natural finish and great coverage! Doesn’t crease or get blotchy!! I’ve tried all the foundations out there and this one is the absolute best!!!!!!
Wish I could like it
I love the color match and the coverage, but I’ve tried this a few ways and with good skin prep and no matter what it separates with any touch, even by glasses. It looks patchy and weird after wearing throughout the day, and setting powder/spray didn’t save it weirder /(
Meh
I really like the cream portion, but I rarely touch the powder. It’s feels wasteful and overpriced knowing I’ll only ever use half the product. I’m sure there are similar cream products without have to spend extra money on a powder you want us.
Unexpected treasure
I’m loving this product. I have combo skin and large pores. It definitely hides my pores but the skin needs to be prepped correctly so the foundation applies the right way. It’s beautiful and I love it.
Love Patrick, but this wasn’t a good fit
I like Patrick a lot, and his products are so innovative. But this was a no for me. It looked cakey and is difficult to blend - it could just be me…
This foundation looks exactly like my skin and blends in so nicely
Avoid unless you have perfect glass skin
I’m so disappointed in this foundation. I had such high hopes but it looked terrible on my skin. It sinks into every pore and made me look like I had dry patches even though my skin is normal/oily. It looked okay from afar but up close was terrible. Very sad considering how expensive it is.
This has been my favorite foundation thus far. It’s thin and doesn’t feel heavy. I always get compliments on my skin whenever I’m wearing this. I do blot once a day (I’m an oily, sweaty gal), otherwise, no complaints. You do have to prep your skin before application, though. So keep that in mind.
Avoid if you have ANY texture or human sized pores
This was SUCH A MISS for me. I have combo skin with an oily t-zone and this sunk into every tiny imperfection, then separated within a few hours and started to look crusty around my nose/mouth. I'm convinced this only looks good on influencers who want to stay on Patrick's PR list. It also felt super heavy and gross. One of the worst foundations I've tried.
This is the best foundation I’ve used in a long time. It blends fantastically, matches my skin tone well and isn’t drying.
A definition of perfection
Guys! Get this! I’m in loveeeeeeeee, make sure you moisturize your skin very well before applying
DONT BUY THIS❌
don't buy it! it is awful! After three months it started to smell rancid 😫, and I see that this has happened to many. There are better foundation options with that price
Not worth the hype
I have tried this several, and I mean several times, and I honestly really do not get the hype! I have used cream foundations before this one that I loved, but this one just never looked good to me. Before I even finished the rest of my routine it had already settled into my fine lines. I’m only 23 btw. And it seemed to stick to the powder weird when I tried to set it, so it would smudge and get splotchy.
I really wanted to like it but I just couldn’t figure out how to make it non-patchy after a couple hours. Right after application it looks amazing, but as the day goes on it goes down hill. It gets very patchy especially around the nose. Tried different bases and prep routines, making it more hydrating underneath and nothing worked. I wish it did bc it really does look good right after application and I love all other Patrick ta products
So disappointed
This is one of the worst foundations I have ever tried. Made my pores look bigger and the finish is almost chalky. It is going back. Save your money.
Heck no
Honestly the worst foundation I've ever tried. Patchy, cake-y, sweaty mess. I'm not one to leave reviews but that's how poorly I find this foundation. Would never recommend.
Great color match and coverage. No staying power.
I wanted to love it. Coverage & color match was awesome. It just had no staying power—regardless of your base prep or setting powder. It lifts somehow. I have to reapply numerous times times. times face
cakey and impossible to blend!
i’ve tried this foundation with a wet sponge, brush, dry sponge, silicone primer, water based primer, no primer, and EVERY method it comes out horrible! it’s hard to blend, comes out patchy, and looks so patchy on my oily skin!
Wonderful!
Love, love, love this. Foundation goes on easily with a brush or blender and lasts all day. Powder is light and the perfect match
Does not last the day.
This foundation looks beautiful when it first goes on, but it looks patchy throughout the day, even with setting spray. I know lots of people love this, but it just doesn’t work for my skin.
It’s excellent!!!! Great coverage but not heavy or cakey
Bad allergic reaction..do not buy.
Thought this stuff was a amazing..went back 2 days later and bought a backup for travel. Then..I saw mount Vesuvius x 3 - one near my eye that hasn’t healed before my bday party. One review said there are several ingredients arhat are comedogenic.
Not worth the price.
I love the patrick ta blush duos and had been eyeing this foundation for a while before i finally splurged and bought it. Wanted to love it, but it looked very patchy on my skin (tried with both a brush and beauty blender). I like the pressed powder better than the creme foundation.
Eh
The initial application was scary. Tried to apply with a brush & blend with a sponge, went patchy. Washed off and applied only with a sponge & it was beautiful, but upon trying to set my face and apply bronzer it was moving around and went patchy again underneath. Very weird. Disappointed, had high hopes!
Unfortunately, not for combo skin girlies
I really wish this was a good review. I love Patrick Ta products, but unfortunately this was not it for me. I tried in every possible way, and it always looks patchy or doesn’t blend well. This separated in my skin so much. i have to return it
nope
Not good at ALL. I had very high expectations for this because I love patrick ta products. It seemed great to begin because it’s very creamy. This made me so incredibly patchy and it separated on my skin (with no primer). In natural light it looked absolutely horrendous.
Skip.
Not impressed. Got after seeing others rave about it on TikTok. It fell way short of the glowing reviews I saw and not worth the price.
Must-try product
I love how creamy the formula is- it’s longwearing and makes my skin look flawless. The setting powder is perfect and doesn’t settle into my fine lines. I love how this product is a two in one.
Yes—Try This! Melts into Skin!
Normally I’m not a fan of cream foundations because I don’t like how heavy they feel on my skin all day. But this got so much buzz and Patrick Ta products have all been hits for me in terms of pigment and formulation. It does have that heavy feel on initial application but when blended out, this formula just melts into your skin. And combined with how the color match was ridiculously good? I really questioned if I had applied anything onto my skin. Medium coverage that’s buildable but...
Patrick Ta foundation
Simply the best crème foundation for full coverage. I save it for special occasions. Did purchase the dual brush also.
Try as Concealer!!
I was searching for a good concealer and setting powder combo when I stumbled upon this beauty. Boy am I glad I tried this as a concealer!! I have used this for 2 weeks nonstop and I am obsessed. I use my finger to rub the cream until it is more liquidy and then pat it on my under eye. Then I take a brush and feather the edges/harsh lines and it blends in seamlessly. Once done, I set it with the powder and move on to the rest of my face. Totally my new go to for concealer even though its a...
Love this
This is buildable and beautiful. I love it! I think the cream is better than the powder but they pair wonderfully and are beautiful separate. Invest in the Patrick Ta brush for this, trust me!
Not worth the money. I tried to like it.
I really wanted to love this foundation. I loved getting a powder and foundation together in one compact. Thought it would make my life easier. And in theory it does. The issue starts with the powder. It’s weird and has weird undertone. My foundation was golden under tone and the powder was pink undertones and left the sling looking flat. Also after about 6 months the cream started to smell weird, a very strong smell. And the finish was weird. I tried to like it but I don’t like it better...
Had high hopes
I sooo wanted this to be my new HG foundation but alas was not meant to be. Goes on very smoothly and beautifully but within 3-4 hours it started wearing off and my skin was patchy. Returning :(
must have always go to !!!
My absolute favorite foundation/powder mix!!! The only thing that would make it better would be to have an applicator included; given the price... It saves me from having to carry around foundation and powder in separate bottles and is nice to just throw in a small purse. It also works for me and I sweat alot in the summer! it's a full coverage life saver. Unfortunately I did drop mine and the powder broke :( but it was on its last use so probably my fault !! I will continue to purchase :)
On the fence
I was so excited to purchase this foundation. I usually stick with what I know works for me. The foundation has a smell to it. I didn't notice it in the store, but after applying it & waiting for a while, the smell is still there. On the fence about keeping it.
Beautiful on initial application only. Bad.
Initially, I absolutely love this. I am a pretty light with my use of foundation- And applied a very light layer. It looks really beautifully initially. For me, the powder, especially in the Eye area really looked bad! I have tried this many ways- but it is a foundation that I will no longer use because it looks terrible.
A definite must have for winter!
I used this product for a week straight with rare beauty blush, and CT bronzer and highlighter and it looked phenomenal. It didn’t hold up well in the heat but it’s great for when it’s colder out.
My favorite foundation by far!
I have been searching of the perfect foundation and I finally found it. Its pricy but so worth it. The packaging is gorgeous. Patrick Ta products are just amazing they just work. My skin looks flawless I do recommend to buy the foundation brush that goes with this product. <3
Do not buy
Apples beautifully but after wearing for 1 hour it separates and looks horrible and Cakey had to return. Really wanted to love it but it was the worst foundation I have ever used!
Not my favorite
I dont like this foundation… Ive tried it a couple of Times and its a no for me. It feel heavy and doesnt sit well on my skin. Maybe dryer skin type will love this, but for me its a no.. 😕
The best and I’ve tried them all!
This is the best foundation I’ve ever used. Great buildable coverage, feels luxurious and lightweight. Only need a little to make an impact. Obsessed.
Flawless coverage
Amazing coverage without feeling heavy, I would suggest a bit of skincare prep. I am also on the drier side and my skin looks amazing
Awful!
I wanted to love this so bad. I tried this with setting spray under a primer after moisturizing like crazy, I tried it without the spray underneath, tried it with just a primer, tried it completely without primer, tried it with setting spray after all my makeup, tried it again without any spray at all, tried it with a different primer, tried it with different powders….etc. I could not get it to last a full work day, and I work in an office at a desk! It broke apart around my nose and was...
Very Meh… a Warning to the Acne Prone!
Shade: Couldn’t find a good match for my ~NC17 light cool yellow/olive skin tone (light 2 was closest but still looked “off” on my face and made me look sickly). Light 1 says warm undertones and it pulled a neon sherberty pink on my skin. Not a great match for the muted, at least in the light depth. Finish: Looked good for about 40 mins (Demi-matte initially imo) before it started to sink into pores and had an almost sickly/oily finish on me WITH my HG priming routine and matte setting...
Mixed Feelings
I wanted to love this foundation, but somedays it is very finicky to apply and sometimes separates. I'm assuming it’s a result from my skincare. Other days my skin looks absolutely flawless with this foundation and it leaves a gorgeous natural, dewy finish. It's definitely medium to full coverage. If this does work on your skin its definitely a perfect everyday wear foundation. I also love the matching powder!
Not worth it
I really, really wanted to love this as a nice alternative to the full foundation routine but it just wasn’t worth it for me. While the product goes on nicely it just doesn’t stay for very long even with primer. Anywhere that would typically get oily and need powder touch ups during the day just completely disappears.
Order darker shade
It seems dark but when applied to skin it’s way lighter and it’s more of a skin tint than foundation. Will have to wear/mix with darker shade or fix with contour.
Love the finish, but I wish there was more product!
don’t recommend
this was not what I thought it was going to be it has no coverage and it smears off even with primer and I got dry patches from it
Don’t buy
Do not purchase. I should’ve listened to the other comments, the product arrived broken and powder got everywhere. The cream itself is very thick and emphasizes pores. Returned
LOVE
I’m a flight attendant and this has been by far the best travel, non oily foundation I have used. Considering I’m flying it doesn’t dry me out or becomes uncomfortable. The wear is just gorgeous. I am able to wear this in the summer without
My new go to foundation!
I tried this product after purchasing Patrick Ta lip plumper and the quality of this line seems consistently excellent. Foundation applied with a brush pro if=does perfect coverage and the tone matches my skin perfectly. To be honest, be a bit careful with the online shade selector. I got one two shades two light but went to Sephora and we were able to find the perfect shade.
No, this is awful
Hard NO. I had such high hopes for this product. It was thick and hard to apply. I tried using my fingers, a foundation brush and a sponge. It was awful each time. The finishing powder was just as bad
AH-MAZING!
I'm absolutely in love with this duo. I still have oily skin at age 61. Most creams slide off my face or crease under my eyes. This product is a MIRACLE. I love the coverage and the finish. My skin looks like skin.
The perfect travel option!
Not only is this product phenomenally made and the formula is impeccable. It’s full coverage and can be applied with any tool. I prefer a brush, but a beauty blender works as well for a lighter coverage It’s so convenient because it has the powder to go with it, so if you travel, this is perfect. 
Worst than drugstore foundations
So so bad. Clings to every dry cell on your face and separates almost immediately. I seriously don’t know how this is getting so many good reviews because I’ve seen YouTube video reviews and they say the exact same thing.
PATRICK DOES IT AGAIN
Just wow, this foundation is everything my skin needs!!! The crème is sooooo silky soft & my skin feels hydrated & plumped!! I’ve tried countless foundation formulas but the powder + cream duo is the one😍😍
Use a sponge!!
i bought this foundation with the brush that was sold with it..i did not like how it applied with the brush. it looked dry and patchy. but i tried it with a sponge and it was an absolute game changer. its creamy and blended so well with the sponge. coverage id say is a medium. it feels lightweight on the skin as well! it meshed well with my other makeup products as well. at first i thought this is going to just be collecting dust in my makeup drawer but now with the easy application and...
The Best foundation!
This foundation is my new favorite! As someone who has searched and tried tons of different foundations, this one is the first to work with my dry skin. It is buildable and gives you a skin but better look!
The best foundation I've ever worn!
This foundation is best I've ever worn! It blends into my skin, seamlessly, and looks like skin; though it's buildable to a full-cover moment. The powder is also incredible, and I wore it for 6 hours without having to powder again. There was no caking, creasing, or streaking. I will hit pan on this, and purchase it again and again! Going to purchase more Patrick Ta products.
Absolute high quality MUST
Wow/ this is just super high quality. Every time I wear this it’s just flawless. My skin looks immaculate and the product is just simply the best. I’m so glad I found this
Worth the try if it works for you
This foundation unfortunately didn’t work for me, caked right up and separated on me
Bought this on a whim after seeing a million people using it on TikTok and it was so worth it! The hype is totally valid! My skin looked so smooth and pretty, basically my skin but better! LOVE!!!
I really wanted to love this but I am not a fan! It settles into pores making them more obvious; even when using primer and setting powder. The finish might be better suited for oily skin as I felt like it dried down really quick and almost with a powdery texture making it hard to blend and was a bit patchy. I used the Patrick Ta brush, another brush, and a beauty blender. I also feel like shade 2 is pretty warm and a bit darker than I'd normally find for a fair foundation.
Best makeup I have ever used I love it great for covering up imperfections very creamy stays on well
worth every penny
10/10. good coverage, flawless and long lasting. covers your pores. absolute perfection. finishing powder is so finely milled. Great value
I love how the crème blends naturally into the skin and is seamlessly buildable. Unfortunately, when I applied the powder over top, it started accentuating my skin texture and acne scars. For this price, I want to love both products.
I really wanted to love this product but it’s a no from me. It settles into fine lines and pores and makes them stand out more and it has a very weird smell…. I tried this product in store and never noticed it but when I got home and really applied the product it came out.
Patrick I love you
This foundation is perfect for olive tone skin and I couldn’t be happier with it!! This is the second shade I’ve gotten. The powder is perfect and it stays all day!
Love this combination in one beautiful compact! I’m a senior lady who still loves makeup and I was looking for products that would simplify my application. This cream foundation has a natural beautiful coverage that blurs my pores and rosacea on my cheeks. It even looks good as a under eye corrected. This has eliminated the need for 3 other products that I was using.
In love with this foundation
So light and best buildable coverage. Lasts all day!
Rubs off very easily.
I was so excited to get this. It goes on nice and I like the way it looks right after being applied, but it rubs over extremely easily. After a couple hours of wear, you should see where patches of it rubbed off. I applied a creamy blush on top and when I tried to blend the blush in, the foundation rubbed off in that area. Also, wiping my nose took all of the foundation off my nose but left some packed into my pores. Maybe it’s my skin type because I haven’t read any reviews with this...
If you are thinking about it, do it.
Long wearing super creamy great buildable coverage. Wasn’t sure how I’d like a cream foundation after some others but honestly one of my new favorites. And the powder is great too especially under the eyes
Love this Duo!
I looooovvveeee this powder! I really hope he comes out with an individual because I’m almost hitting pan! it works with any foundation I’ve tried even with this crème foundation it’s beautiful
Not a color match
I purchased color based on the quiz. It's nice, I guess.....but feel that I received a color lighter than expected. Not worth the price if they send the wrong match for your skin color.
The packing is really nice. The product it’s self feels good when applying but I do not like the amount of product there is for that price there should be way more product in there.
I have never had a foundation match me so perfectly, I can barely tell I'm putting anything on except that it covers my imperfections. It also has such a natural finish, very skin-like if my skin were that flawless. I absolutely love this. I do wish there was more product in it, but I just got it recently so I'll see how long it lasts.
Must have
Literally looks like your skin but elevated. Super buildable and perfect for a no make up look or medium coverage. Patrick Ta has become my new fav make up brand.
A must have for minimal makeup user
This is my third time using this. I'm not sure why but my skin doesn't look oily as other people commented. I used but the balm foundation in my problem areas not all over the face and then I take the powder and put all over my face. I feel more natural in this. The shade works well with my medium deep complexion. It does cover my problem areas good I just put two layers on the area I cover up which is some dark spots from the sun (hyperpigmentation) and then set with the powder. Definitely...
Dissapointed...
I think this foundation duo is okay. I was so pumped to try it but I was dissapointed that the quality wasn't so great and it's very pricy. There are better foundations with better coverage, more quantity and better quality for that price. It barely covers, you'd have to put a lot to get some coverage. The powder makes the face a little cakey, it doesn't make the t-zone look smooth you can see the powder even after brushing it out. It's a pass for me.
Arrived Broken!
The product arrived broken with the powder spilling as soon as I opened the product.
Oily skin beware
Not the best combo for my oily skin. I used the One Size primer hoping the primer and this would keep the oil away for the day but that is not the case. After a couple hours of wear, I was needing to blot after 2 hours of application.
Not my fave
Looked really heavy and cakey on my skin. So sad because I love Patrick TA!!
Love this. And I don’t love products often.
I’ve never loved a foundation before. And I’ve tried a lot!!! But I do love this. My expectations aren’t high but most of the ones Ive tried separate and look gross on my oily skin by the end of the day. This doesn’t. I just blot and it’s good for the rest of my 12 hour day.
Crème foundations are just not it..
This foundation looks dry, patchy, cakey and oily while clinging to dry skin even after prepping my face w skincare/primer. Greasy and dry looking on the skin and pore look enlarged. I had to powder every hour to look decent.
stunning foundation
most beautiful foundation ive ever used unfortunately the finishing powder did come broken so i would give it 5 stars if it wouldnt have came broken the foundation doesnt look cakey its very smooth and buttery with an easy application process.
Almost gave up on this but…
Was about to return this product because it every time I tried applying (with a ton of skin prep btw) it slid all over my face and clung to every dry patch imaginable. I gave it one last effort with *no* prep, just light moisturizer and wet my face fully with setting spray. It glides on like a dream WITH a wet face. Still giving it 3 stars because I don’t think it should take that much effort for the product to work. Still debating on returning since it’s a hassle, but the finish is gorgeous...
Avoid if you have pores
This is a beautiful formula. But not for textured skin. I have dry mature skin with large pores and it does not work for me no matter what primer/tool/brush I used. I saw pores in my face that I didn’t know existed.
This is a magic formula, it blends like butter. The shade marching on his website was also spot on
Glowy and sheer
Great color and sheer buildable coverage. Only downside was I couldn’t use my regular foundation brush, as it just moved the product around. Definitely needs a looser brush or a sponge to apply. Really pretty and glowy
Impressive and worth the hype
The most exceptional foundation I’ve tried in ages!! It melts into the skin and the finish is filter like and flawless. I never use a setting spray and this foundation wore like a dream. The color was a perfect match!!
A must try
I was a little nervous because it’s cream foundation, but it feels great on the skin and has buildable coverage. The color looked a little scary in the pan, but was a great match for me.
not for oily skin
I don't like this product it's make my pour bad and they don't have yellow skin or olive skin
do no purchase if you have pores
I really wanted to like this product but it completely emphasizes every single pore and line on your face. I tried with different primers, no primer, brushes and sponges and nothing helped. it also feels heavy on the skin. I give it 1 out of 5 for having a great color match but other than that I would not recommend it at all. my powder also arrived broken
