At first, I really liked it and it was great for the colder months, but the coverage is a bit lacking and the formula doesn't feel very clean on my skin. It's a slightly-above-average foundation -...

This is an okay foundation. I found that it felt somewhat greasy when applied, but after it set it was fine. It seems to wear off easily, even when use with powder. The coverage is layerable, and...
