The first thing I noticed about this foundation was how 'liquid' the formula is. I'm used to something heavier that squeezes out as a thicker blob than this one. That is not to say that it was messy or runny- just different to what I'm used to!
I followed the instructions and dotted it onto my skin before 'rolling' it in. I was immediately impressed by how smoothly it went on. There was no hassle in blending it in, no brushes or sponges required here. This is the kind of foundation that you want around on a morning when you'e in a rush. Or for that matter, anytime really that you don't want to have overly 'work' the foundation in for an even finish.
I chose the shade 202 creamy natural which is cool toned and matches the swatch diagram well. If anything, it's slightly lighter than my skin in person but an in-store tester would have quickly solved that!
The coverage is described as medium and radiant. I found it to be on the lighter side. Medium to me suggests that it will cover most imperfections in your complexion, but not all. I still went in with a few touches of concealer after the foundation for the small red marks that were left behind- pesky things! As mentioned earlier though, the coverage is perfectly even and smooth. My skin fits the 'normal to dry' profile and there were no issues with it drying out my skin. The radiance is there, I applied over sunscreen, and was left with a dewy glow- perfect! Not too shiny but not at all matte.
Overall, this is great if you're looking for an easy-to-apply, daily use foundation. It's not an option for those looking for a full coverage foundation but that's not what it sets out to do!
This foundation is so amazing. I’ve had trouble with extremely dry skin all my life and was happy I found this foundation, it’s cheap and great for dry skin leave a beautiful glow finish and last all day. Would definitely recommend.
