Using this made me a believer in that "less is more." This covers the red areas in my face, such as cheeks/nose area pretty good, and I use this stick for touch-ups during the day. Ivory is a...

I love this Foundation, it works perfectly on my skin, and I can use it as a concealer also.

Everything that's great about Prescriptives -- the colors, the natural finish, the way it won't break you out -- is here, but the Matchstick has the same problem their Photochrome does -- namely,...

Traceless is still my favorite for all over... but for the redness I get around my nose and on my chin the matchstick is perfect! I like a really sheer barely there foundation all over (hence...

This works so much better than Bobbi Brown's stick since it is oil-free. I loved BB's but it makes me an oil slick. I was able to find a great match in warm vellum. product is a bit drier than...

This is my favorite stick foundation. I have this in warm cream, and it's a very good match. It blends nicely into skin. I use this as a concealer or spot cover when I'm in a hurry. I carry this in...

This looks unbelievably good when applied using the Foundation Brush -- think flawless, velvet-finish skin, perfect for photographs. However, without the brush, it gets a 1 for being hard to blend...

Of all of the prescriptives foundations I have tried this was one of the ones I liked better. The coverage was better, but it still looked greasy and unnatural after a few hours.

By far the best foundation I tried ever and I'm hooked! I've been a user for 5 years now and can't see anything wrong with it unlike what other users have been saying and depending on your skin...

I give up on prescriptives products. I was sure this one would work but it didn't. It was too dry to spread evenly, even on oily skin; it completely washed off and/or made my face shiny within two...

Prescriptives is the ONLY line of foundations I can use and not look made-up. They are the ONLY line that has matched me that well. I also have very sensitive skin and their product line has...

After using virtual skin foundation which I found to be very good, but not very convenient for taking about for touch ups, I tried the exact matchstick which came in a handy stick formulation. The...

I actually like the matchstick foundation. It matches my skin color very well, but sometimes throughout the day I feel kinda greasey and oily. I have oily, acne-prone skin and I'm still kind of...

Again - Px has an amazing range of colors, but this one didn't do it for me. It was too dry even on my oily skin and didn't spread evenly.

I think this product is a bit drying for my skin (I have combo skin). It makes it look very dry. I use this as a concealer because the SA at the Px counter suggested it over the camouflage cream....

My color is Cool Shell. I have oily skin, and this quick stick stays on, and gives very good coverage. Nice texture, even on oily skin! Impressive! The price ($37.50) still takes my breath away,...
