about-face THE PERFORMER Skin-Focused Foundation F1Neutral – Medium Coverage, Long-Wear, Breathable & Buildable Base – Clean, Vegan, Hydrating Formula with Blue Agave & Chlorella – 1.08oz

This has become my new HG foundation. The texture, the feel, and the undertone are everything. As a fair cool-neutral with an olive undertone, it can be very hard to match foundation, so I was excited to try this. It works very well for my skin tone—slightly more olive than Natasha Denona N2, which is the best color match I’ve ever found, but it’s fine when it blends out. What really sold me on this is the texture. It’s got a very light, cushiony serum feel that gives a beautiful satin finish that smooths out my textured areas and looks like skin. It dries down very quickly, but not so much you can’t blend it. The coverage is light to medium, it doesn’t settle into my lines and pores, and it feels so nice on my face—smoothing and more like skincare than makeup. I find it wears very well, enough for an 8 hour day, it does absorb a bit depending on how I prep it. A good gripping primer and setting spray will definitely extend the wear. What I like is that even when the coverage wears down a bit, the makeup doesn’t get that cakey, smeary breakdown look or settle into my lines. It just melts into my skin and continues to give a soft satin glow. For reference, I have combination skin with fine lines and enlarged pores and I’m 47. So this is definitely good for older skin.

I cannot tell you how obsessed I am with this foundation. I have pale very neutral skin and this is the best foundation match I have ever tried. It doesnt break me out, it subtly covers my type 1 rosacea, and it feels so light and airy on the skin to the point where I forget I am wearing it! I can honestly say this is the nicest foundation I have ever used personally!

This is my holy grail foundation. I am relatively minimal with my makeup this foundation does everything I need in a complexion product. I don’t feel the need for any other foundations in my collection besides this one. F2 Olive is my perfect shade. I have never found a better match for my skin. I have combo/dry skin that I do my best to take care of. With a basic consistent skincare routine, I find this product goes well over a simple moisturizer in the morning. It lasts well on my skin and looks very natural and skin like. I love the dough foot applicator. The only very minimal note is that you have to be careful when pulling the applicator out because it does stick a little in the opening and can spray out if done too quick.

As a light neutral olive 37-year old, this is quite literally the first time I have found an affordable product that has the right undertone for me. I love the finish, the texture, it doesn’t sit too heavy on my skin, even with lots of skin prep. I don’t like full coverage and the amount this foundation provides is just right for me. The only reason I don’t give it a 5-star is that it doesn’t wear well after a few hours. I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong when prepping or setting, but this cakes on my t-zone after a few hours, and I use a thin layer in that area. Just keep that in mine, but definitely go for it if you are also an olive!

I absolutely love this serum foundation in the shade olive. It’s very difficult to find an olive shade. This is lightweight, feels so good on my 53yr old skin. Gives a nice coverage and doesn’t highlight wrinkles even after wearing it all day. This is the first time in years I found a product that works for my age group, The serum foundation moisturizes my dry skin with a subtle glow while providing coverage.

This is the most spot on color match I have ever used. The foundation finish is really nice and the application easy to apply, blends beautifully, feels great.

I have fair skin, but could never find a foundation that didn’t do weird things to my face color. I finally figured out I have olive skin by holding a white piece of paper next to my face and seeing green. Most main line foundation products are too dark. Or too green. So I thought I’d give this a try. I couldn’t believe it. The color blended in perfectly with my skin. The coverage is medium, so I can use a light concealer under my eyes and then use the foundation over it. Truly a wonder.

Definitely disappointed. Unfortunately I was influenced by a TikTok review to buy this product based on someone saying it was a good fair olive shade. I bought F2 Olive and it was still too yellow for me. Also I have very sensitive skin. Not only was it much too drying but something in this caused my eyes to water and perioral dermatitis to flare. Don’t buy this if you have similar issues.
