description

A breakthrough liquid-to-powder foundation formula that absorbs oil, camouflages imperfections, and delivers a long-lasting velvet matte finish. This innovative foundation helps reduce the appearance of oil, acne scars, and severe breakouts. It's formulated with Cashmere Kaolinite Clay, which absorbs 75 percent of its weight in oil without over-drying the skin. The oil-free formula transforms instantly from liquid to powder, creating an all-day finish that camouflages imperfections and never appears dull, flat, or cakey. Ultra-fine pigments provide unsurpassed coverage and effectively eliminate the need for powder, blotting, or constant touch-ups throughout the day.

This is my HG foundation. Right shade (vanilla), finally, and right texture on my greasy mug. I still powder, although I guess ideally you're not supposed to have to. But I do.
