I have tons of bottles of foundation sitting in my drawer too. But the MUFE HD is my all fav now ! I would try out Illamasque foundations if I have chance to test drive them personally.

The Mufe face and body foundation has been my favorite over the summer. I will be going back to HD as the whether changes, though. I'm almost done with my face and body bottle anyway. Some days all I do is wear the HD concealer.

Wow, thanks for this! I've been looking for something that works well in covering scars...I had a weird skin problem about a year back that left some scars along my collar bone. I love MUFE's shadows and lipsticks and stuff but haven't tried their concealer-I think I'm going to now!!

This plus face and body and the hd powder is perfection. It won't work miracles on undereye circles, but it softens it up a bit. I wear glasses, so i don't worry about my bags. LOL |

I love my HD foundation but am now seriously lemming F&B after reading this thread! HD I found a little tricky to apply but after experimenting with what works well on the skin for easy application it's amazing.
I just bought the HD Elixir off of eBay and can't wait to try this...I'm currently using Smashbox primer atm which makes my HD glide on and blend perfectly. I have the HD primers (green and yellow) but I can't seem to get them to work for me. I end up with blotchy patches of that stuff on my cheeks when I try to apply it.
Oh and I have combo skin - oily t-zone, nose, cheek area on either side of my nose, dry areas on my cheeks and forehead and I break out VERY easily - HD hasn't made me break out especially when teamed up with Smashbox primer (this helps a lot with the dry areas). But saying that, I do use Proactiv cleanser and repairing lotion + Clinique Moisture Surge every morning and night, although other foundations/primers have still caused breakouts while using it.
I have been using my MAC foundation brush to apply and kabuki to blend a little. I'm waiting on the 109 brush in the mail after seeing gorgeous DRBrooklyn730's video (youtube) on one way to apply HD - I tried to make a clickable link to that video but it ends up putting the whole video in this post and wasn't sure if that was allowed in these threads
Will definitely post here when my elixir arrives!

I bought the matte duo in 205 and I love it as you can see in my signature. I use my Quo kabuki to apply and it goes on flawless. I now use the Matte Duo everyday for work and HD when I go out
I'm truly impressed by MUFE foundations so far

What shade in Mat Velvet did you get? I'm trying to get an idea of what shade of foundation I want to try(I'm NC25)

It's pretty good for under the eyes, though if you have crazy dark circles then I can imagine it might not be enough. I just love the consistency though, it really dries to a nice natural finish, not cakey or obvious at all. Love it. |

Thank you for this post! I just got the HD foundation in the mail and I've been totally dissapointed with it! But after reading this I'm going to try it out without my HD primer and see if that makes a difference.

Yes, you have to work with HD to make it work, but it is ABSOLUTELY worth it when you get it to work. It is especially tricky for dry skin like mine. I use the Sephora HD Airbrush Foundation brish and it works very well. I don't own the 109 so I can't speak to the quality of that. I must say, though, that I use the Face and Body more often now and even more often than that, I use the HD concealer alone. It gives me all the coverage I need.
The HD elixer is fab on my dry skin and with the hd primer, it's awesome. I never skip those steps in the morning.

I have shade #35 Vanilla, which is described as being for medium skin with yellow/beige undertones. I find the shade runs ever so slightly darker than MAC Studio Fix Fluid in NC30. I'm not sure what I'd suggest for NC25 though, as I'm not really familiar with how MUFE shades work really.

I'm quite the lurker here, but I just wanted to say I wear NC30 in Mac Studio Sculpt and Mat Velvet 40 matches great on me. I am somewhat tan right now,though.

MUFE Experts: I need your help!
I'm having trouble locating the Camouflage Concealer Palette in shade no. 5 (the palette with lilac, green, orange correctors).
The MUFE website doesn't sell any products..? And Sephora doesn't have all the palettes in stock, they only carry nos. 1, 2, 4.
Anyone know where I can buy this?

Anyone know how the mufe HD foundation would compare to Armani luminous silk? Im dying to try it! Did it break anyone out, or oxidise much?
Also, I take shade 4 in luminous silk and am NC15 in mac so what shade would be best?
