    So I've been wanting to give my skin a break from the full coverage liquids, because they can take a toll on the skin, so I began the experiment with minerals. The thing with this foundation is...

    This has got to be one of the worst products that I have ever tried. On top of making my face itchy, it gave me a chalky look despite moisturizing well. I tried to make it work, but it just didn't....

    I definitely don't recommend this if you have oily skin at all! The 'luminous' finish it might give those with drier skin translated to "plasticky" on my oily skin. I look like a bad mannequin...

    I initially bought this to use it as a foundation - but for me the coverage is too light, so I need something underneath. Now I use it as a powder on top of my Exuviance Skin Caring Foundation, and...

    I absolutely love this foundation. It's amazing! It covers like a dream and is undetectable if you wear the right shade with the correct undertone. Less is always more ect. Buff it in well evenly...

    Let me start by saying that I like a medium-full coverage. Initially, this is not a full coverage. It's actually fairly light at first. The coverage of this foundation depends on the brush you use....
