Nice and creamy, but very little product and not easy to blend with fingers. So I have to use a foundation brush to apply and this uses up most of the product. I don't know if it would even last a...

A terrible product for oily or combo skin. Within a few short hours I was streaky, oily and very shiny. My skin looked awful!
