5Coverage is unreal semi-matte finish covers up any acne scare etc, great shade range I use 2.0N I’m usually a nc20-25 in mac! I did find it oxidised a little but not as bad as some foundations x

Amazing
5Honestly one of the best foundations I've tried; doesn't make me look oily or like it's caked on. Can't complain about the price for once either.

5This foundation I found to last for the 12-14 hours that I wear it for and I have very oily skin and I find that most foundations crease in my smile lines and separate on my nose but this foundation is perfect, the only thing that I don’t like as much though is that it’s called the coverage foundation but it doesn’t cover up my freckles :( but I WOULD RECOMMEND.

2.0 N
5After reading mixed reviews I was particularly concerned about the foundation 'breaking up', appearing cakey and not covering properly. However, after having tried it I have to say I love it! Coverage level is very nice, it looks so much more natural, and it feels very light on the skin. So far I am very happy with it. The risk of ordering the right shade online paid off, but at this price, you can't really go wrong. (I applied after moisturising my skin, no setting powder or spray and found it stayed on just fine. My skin was also less oily than usual throughout the day)

Very Dark
2I used Findation.com to find which shade was my match. I'm a 4.5 Illamasqua Skin Base so was matched with 2.0 N however it's really dark on my skin so has to be mixed with a lighter foundation. Aside from that the foundation is OK, especially when you're on a budget. It works on my skin which is quite oily, but I do need to use a lot of powder on top. I've gone back to Illamasqua, but may buy a lighter shade to use every now and then for the price. I don't really get the hype myself, but if you are going to try it, definitely get a shade or two lighter than you're matched with online.

Good for the price
4This foundation is great for me. I like the coverage, it's a perfect match for my skin and it's very easy to apply (I use 2.1 Y Medium). However, buying foundation online can be difficult as you can't try it before you buy it. I bought the 3.1 R Dark thinking the picture shown was my shade but it was overpoweringly red for my skin tone.

Dreadful
1The only good thing about this foundation is the price, and having very fair foundations with a yellow undertone (very rare). However, I have oily skin, and as soon as I added powder it looked very dry and cakey. After only a few hours, I started to get very oily and the foundation begun to break up, and blotting and adding powder wasn't able to salvage it. This made me look no less and horrific, and has the quite impressive ability to make me look both greasy and very dry. To top it off, it gave me an allergic reaction after wearing it for a few days. Never again.

2.1 Y Medium - I love it!
5I really love this foundation. It stays on all day on my oily skin, it doesn't break me out and it gives me amazing coverage (I always use a primer underneath my foundation and set it though). This shade is extremely yellow though, at first I thought it was completely wrong for me but once I used it I made it work and fell in love with it.A little bit goes a long way! For that price, I will repurchase again and again.

Love The Ordinary but ..
1I know they used a team of scientists to develop this — but not dermatologists apparently. The color slips off your face and it's not really covering properly. By the end of the day, it's a big mess. Gets stuck in your dry spots and slips on the oily parts...so no.

Not for me
2Ordered the Medium Y but I looked orange. I'm naturally quite tanned but the yellow undertone is too much. I also found it difficult to apply.
