    I used to use this when I was preteen/teenager and had acne. This was something I used before I knew how to treat my skin and use skincare and it helped my acne so much. My face looked matte, smooth, and despite the bumps on my face my face felt soft. Consistently wearing it helped my acne.

    The Neutrogena SkinClearing Foundation with MicroClear has a light, non-overpowering scent. The bottle is compact and easy to use. It provides light to medium coverage with a natural, skin-like finish. It's especially suitable for oily and acne-prone skin due to its non-comedogenic formula. While the shade range is somewhat limited, it covers the most common skin tones.

    I have been using Neutrogena foundation since I was a teenager! It doesn’t ever look caked on and is more natural. Plenty of shade/skin tones to choose from. A little goes a long way so the bottle lasts quite some time. And another bonus is it’s not crazy expensive!

    Lly - 6 months ago
    This line used to be the best. I don't know what they have done to this product, but it is no longer the same product I remember. I have repurchased over and over again, hoping maybe the quality would be back as it was, but this line has no consistency in quality anymore. The color and quality are bad.

    This foundation was light and helped me when I was dealing with heavy breakouts. It didn't feel like it clogged my pores. It gave a natural finish.

    I’m really impressed with this foundation! I usually use much more expensive brands, but my hormones are wreaking havoc on my skin, and I’m breaking out at 50 like I never have. So, I’ve been searching for something that won’t clog my pores. This foundation (Nude) is a great color, not too yellow, not too peach, not too pink. I usually struggle to find a match-I’m neutral leaning warm, with lots of redness in my face! It blends in really well, it covers breakouts sufficiently, and my skin was actually looking BETTER the next day instead of worse after trying something new! It feels light, wore really well all day, and isn’t TOO matte. I’m so happy with it, I may even look for a lighter shade for winter! (I never buy anything twice, lol!)

    I love all of Neutrogena’s foundation. I have used it for the past 10 years. It always leaves a flawless finish and also provides amazing coverage. The skin compatibility and shade range is usually always accurate and the packaging is always beautiful.

    It feels light but you can build it up I haven't had any breakups in my skin and it last pretty long the last picture I took it after going to the gym, I didn't have a lot of time before to take off my makeup and that's the result after 30 min of workout, the part of the nose it's a little bit oily and after the workout some of the foundation was off.

    This so the only liquid makeup that I can use without my skin breaking out. The coverage finish shade ranges and packaging are all worth every cent that I spent on it.

    I used this foundation as a teen with acne and it would burn my skin, it is much too strong for young skin, and that is their target demographic. These active ingredients shouldn't be in our cosmetics.

    The Neutrogena SkinClearing foundation is one I use daily, and have loved it for years! My skin is not too acneic but I love that it fights any potential breakouts. this foundation is light and buildable, has a pleasant scent, and applies beautifully with a sponge. I always apply the foundation over the top of a sunscreen!
