It blends well over the skin. Doesn’t look cakey. It also has surprisingly good footage. I used a dense foundation brush and didn’t have any streaks. I get coverage and it looks like skin. Very impressed with this foundation. And I love that there isn’t a heavy scent.

I had really high hopes for this foundation but alas, I was very disappointed. This foundation gives light to medium coverage at best (with two layers) and doesn't do much to cover discoloration any acne scars. While it doesn't emphasize texture, it doesn't do anything to hide then either. I really dislike the bottle. There doesn't seem to be a lock on it so I wouldn't travel with it. It also has a weird pump that makes it messy whenever I squirt out the foundation. It's also very not mask friendly. The foundation was all over the mask when I removed it and you can obviously see where it rubbed off on my face. Needless to say, it didn't look good. At $58 a bottle, I expected more from it. It does sort of give a nice glow, like it claims. It's a shame it's not a better foundation because it matches my skin tone exactly.

I bought this foundation during the last holiday season.I feel like it's not talked about. I love the way it makes my skin look, the coverage is more on the natural side which is perfect for everyday, the finish is more satan/dewy which is great because i find mattes to be super drying. A great feature is that the package is an air pump. Honestly you can apply it however you like beauty blender/brush/or even hands, to me it depends on how my skin feels on that day but i mostly gravitate towards the sponge. I gave it 4 starts though because unfortunately it tends to settle around dry patches especially around the nose. An awesome trick from my Sister is do not power your face, or at least don't over powder it, i found following this trick with this foundation for example helped decrease creasing and settling into fine lines. Finally, I like that it doesn't oxidize like other foundations, which is very important because honestly if a foundation drastically changes color after application, it ruins the whole look. If you have been eyeing it, i say give a go and try it out. If you tried it, share your thoughts in the comments!
