I have used this in the past per the hype on the magazines like Bazzar. It is certainly a luxe foundation with smooth application but it is too sheer for me.

This foundation looks horrible in flash photography. Do not wear it on a night out and take pictures b/c you will look so WHITE. I think it may be b/c of the luminous properties and SPF. Otherwise,...
