"I don’t love a heavy looking or feeling foundation but I want some coverage. This foundation is great for that. It feels light and doesn’t cause problems if I get too lazy to wash my face sometimes at the end of the day."
— Allison L. (5/5)
"I've been using High Fidelity Foundation for over three years, and it continues to be my favorite foundation. It provides just the right amount of coverage to even out my skin tone while still looking natural. What I love most is that it never feels heavy or cakey, even after wearing it all day. It blends beautifully, feels comfortable on my skin, and gives me a smooth, flawless finish every time. After years of use, I can confidently say this is a product I keep coming back to. Highly recommend!"
— Tammi B. (5/5)
"This foundation matches me perfectly (light-medium neutral with a hint of olive) and also provides the moisture I need for my dry skin. Melts in so nicely! Medium coverage that is not too heavy and is buildable."
— Maria M. (5/5)
"I love this foundation. The color match is perfect (they have a lot of options for undertones). It’s the perfect balance of having enough coverage without being too heavy. Great price too!"
— Maggie R. (5/5)
"Good but I wish it covered more. It is smooth and moisturizing. It is pretty sheer but it can be buildable."
— Selena S. (4/5)
"Takes a few minutes to dry down, but the formulation is lightweight, creamy and leaves skin looking plump and glowy (without shining like a disco ball). I also like the fact that it doesn’t settle into lines/creases and lasts for hours."
— Allison r. (5/5)
"I like it. Good color match; tends to last without wiping off my face. . ."
— Theresa G. (4/5)
"I never expected a nontox foundation to be this good, but it acts similarly to regular foundations I would purchase from Sephora. Very lightweight, but good coverage."
— Ava C. (5/5)
"Love this foundation. Tried one shade lighter than I have had previously and love it!"
— Paige J. (5/5)
"I had purchased this before for my sister's wedding and really liked it. I recently purchased it again for a friend's wedding, in Dana. It's lightweight, buildable for more coverage if desired. It's an easy every day foundation if wanted."
— Jane (5/5)
