Comments: Most cream to powder sticks are so greasey, this one is perfect! Perfect matte finish! Very blendable. Since I have combination skin my T-zone still gets a little shine later in the day. I will need a transluscent setting powder for that area. Otherwise, no setting powder necessary. Lov'n it! |

Comments: This is a great product for any woman who has color in her skin. Often times when I buy products that do not cater to a darker skin tone the undertone of the makeup is either too pink or too yellow. Iman gets it right with the Second to None Foundation. It is the first makeup that I've used that blends flawlessly. It's easy to apply and control the amount of coverage. Doesn't cause breakouts and doesn't make your skin look too shiny. |

Comments: I love this product. I have been using it for years. Being an African American woman it can be so difficult to find the exact color blend. I was wearing some really big name very nice brands but it still was hard to find exact matches. When Ulta opened in my town a make up specialist recommended the Iman and I loved it since. It's easy to use had great coverage and makes you look smooth and flawless. I recommended it to my mom and sister who are considerably lighter than I am and they were able to find matches aswell that make them look great. The only con I see is that it can rub off on other people and your clothes. Being that my fiancé is a Caucasian man i have to make sure not to get it on him when we kiss or he will have a brown nose for real lol. I think the same problem would exist with any foundation so no big deal. It's an awesome product 5 stars. |

Comments: I am absolutely in love with this Second to None foundation stick. I tried the cream concealer along with the loose powder several years ago and I liked it alot, but for some reason I didn't stick with either. I have oily, acne-prone skin that is also cursed with hyperpigmentation (dark marks) left from the acne that I have to cover. When I saw this in a store I decided to try it again, and I am so glad that I did! Originally I used the cover cream but a store associate recommended this stick foundation and when I put it on by itself, it covered absolutely everything! After all day wear my skin still looks demi-matte, the color stays true, doesn't slide off and my face doesn't look like an oil slick after. Thank you Iman for making an affordable foundation that is truly for our skin and coloring--you now have a customer for life. |

Comments: I'm in my early thirties and had really bad acne in my teens which left a lot of scarring, and still get break outs on occasion. It's very hard to cover my dark acne scars. Looking at the Imancosmetics site I thought I'd be a Clay 2-3, but when I after trying the shades at the store I'm actually a Clay 4. I've never tried any makeup that was an exact match until now. I've tried highend expensive brands like Laura Mercier to drugstore brands like Maybelline and everything in between. I've been using Dream Matte Mousse in the Dark Cocoa 3 for years, thought it was about 2 shades too dark, it was the makeup that gave me the best coverage and didn't appear ashy. I followed the application instructions on site, also in the box for full coverage. I used the stick in Clay 4, cream to powder in Earth 1, then finished with luxury pressed powder in Earth medium (the clay med/dark made the look a little ashy). The finish was perfect. Very minimal rub off. It looked very natural because of the perfect tone match, rather than all done up. If the product seems greasy on application you're applying too much, possibly pressing too hard on the stick. Similar products with this much pigment cost twice as much. I'm going to try the medium coverage look and see if it was completely necessary to buy all 3 products. Regardless I will be a fan and consumer of this line for life. Oh and because of the minimal rub off, make sure you a makeup removing facial cleanser. |

Comments: I have oily sensitive skin and I wore this and it worked beautifully. It did not break me out and it did not feel greasy on my skin like some stick foundations can. It was lightweight and long-wearing. It gave a flawless finish without looking like makeup, if that makes sense...I would definitely recommend it to everyone. I will be getting more and trying Iman's concealer too. |

Comments: I LOVE this foundation. I've tried so many others from MAC stick foundations to liquid foundations to powder, and I have to say, this one gives me the most natural and BEST finish. This is great if you don't need that much coverage, but the coverage is definitely buildable. I get so many compliments on how my skin looks so smooth and perfect and people never seem to believe that I wear foundation! I use this year-round, even in winter when my skin is very dry, to the summer when my skin is relatively oily. It's great for ALL skin types and really really REALLY looks so natural and fresh. I will never go back to any other foundation! |
