Reviews For Oxygenetix Oxygenating Foundation Color Matching Samples
Great for problem skin
I have melasma and what's been diagnosed as calcified bumps by one dermatologist and osteoma cutis by another, which I'm told only surgery can eliminate. Both have recommended mineral-based makeup that will not clog my pores or contribute to the development of additional bumps. The problem with mineral makeup is the coverage is not as good as what I need for some occasions. I decided to try Oxygenetix samples based on the reviews by others with problem skin who wanted more coverage. While the coverage is not a much as I expected, it seems to have reduced the size of some of the bumps on my forehead! I'm ordering a full size (of the Beige color) to find out if it's true or a coincidence. If true, it will end a six-year quest for a cure.

Wanted to try this
I was told by my aesthetician to try this makeup, as it actually helps the skin heal after procedures which sounded great to me! It's quite sheer, not heavy or cakey but covers quite well. The colors are nice and it's good to know it's actually good for your skin!

Nice but not perfect
Great light coverage but definitely not a full coverage. It doesn't matter how many layers I put it on, it can't hide the dark post acne scars I have, but it definitely hides redness and my mild acne scars that are more pink and not brown or red. Another problem - the product is a little bit sticky to the touch after fully absorbed so it needs to be powdered after. On the other hand it stays all day, does not cake and does not irritate or break me out. Specially I love the feeling of this product on me because it really feels like you don't have any makeup on and the skin really breathing. It is a great everyday makeup because your skin looks natural and healthy in daylight so you can hide the majority of your skin problems without looking like you're loaded with makeup, and also it actually helps treating the problems of the skin.

Great way to color match foundation!
I love this sample idea! I was able to match to the "Pearl" and know for sure that it will work out. I would have given it 5 stars if I got slightly more product. It was only enough for about 2 applications.

Great so far
I have oily/combo skin and this doesn't make my skin greasy. It looks good when applied with a beauty blender and bare hands. Haven't tried with a brush just yet. Love how my skin looks radiant and natural not cakey. Can't wait to see what it looks like in summer.

lightweight and breathable
Recent skin issues (redness, pigmentation) have forced me to use foundation on a daily basis for the first time so I'm glad that my dermatologist recommended this brand. I didn't want something heavy or that felt like I was wearing a mask, and at the same time, I needed something that wouldn't dry out my already sensitive skin. I think this foundation addresses these issues well although it might require more than one layer. The samples are a good way to find the right shade since online shopping leaves a lot of guesswork if you aren't already familiar with the brand. Sample sizes were small, but depending on your coverage needs, it can easily see you through as you wait for your full size order.

oxygenetix foundation
Great coverage, matte finish, stays on all day and need to use makeup remover or wash off with your face cream or soap. Covers blemishes nicely.

SO glad
I found this foundation sample through a google search. I was so happy. I would prefer to spend some money to find the correct shade! The samples have enough foundation for a few applications.

Its ok
The best part about this product is the samples to try out. I must have that kind of skin color that no foundation can match. I agree that the foundation is very "light" feeling which I love. I have rosacea and mild acne and this foundation did cover it. I dont believe its the type of foundation that will stay on past 6hrs w/o touch ups.

Generous sample amounts
Amazing foundation! The sample amounts were more than enough for a few days, especially since I used it sparingly as a concealer. I only wish that there could be sample sets together from each yellow skin color/blue skin section instead of two from only one section or the other, as I (like others Im assuming) have a neutral undertone and find that more hard to match than simply which color shade to choose from.

Try It
I decided to get (2) samples of the Creme & Beige and the Beige was a perfect match. I am 43-years old, acne prone and with some discolorations and with nuetral/yellow undertones. Considering the cost of the actual bottle, I was appreciatve that Oxygenetix has these samples to try first. Other makeup companies dont offer that unless you have a Sephora near you and get samples. Because of being able to try the samples, I ordered a bottle and just ordered my 2nd bottle. Love it!!!

Good idea
I thought this was a great idea to have samples to try before I actually bought a full size bottle. Especially considering this product isnt sold at a store such at Nordstrom where I could actually go get samples first. I had just had a quite invasive spa procedure done and I had the samples overnighted to my house so I could have some coverage for the next few days and not look scary. The makeup completely covered all my redness. I liked how lightweight it was. One downside was that the samples actually had very little makeup in them. I think they could do better with filling the little sample bottles.

Good make-up
I am so glad I ordered the sample. The amount was so small but enough to know if its the right shade for my skin. I love this make-up. I think I will buy the full size after I have used both samples.

The samples were very small-- and difficult to apply as they were not in a container that would allow a certain amount of the product to be used. You ended up using more than needed in one application.
