HG for sure! My skin is super sensitive and everything breaks me out, except for this. It leaves your skin looking flawless with a dewy glow. It's not a light foundation, but if you want that then...

Love it. Very surprising since its soooo cheap! I love the scent too. Medium to full coverage, packaging is super pretty, colors are great (not too white, pinkish or yellowish). I like it a lot.

The product is average. VERY perfumy! But that isn't much of an issue to me. It's not unpleasant but it does linger and that can be a bit cloying after a while. I got it in Almond which was a good...

Holy Grail (HG) product! Coming from a foundation snob/hoarder that's a pretty strong statement. I would like to say it is definitely worth the money but since it's only $6, that almost sounds like...
