I feel like this foundation's performance highly depends on the temperature of the room you're applying it in and wearing. When it's warm, this glides on a lot easier and has a smoother finish....

I LOVE this product. It's sheer yet buildable and very natural looking. I only need to use a small amount to get the result I want so it's quite economical. I was happy to find a color that matches...

I absolutely adore this foundation. It's one of the few that I've tried that really sinks into the skin instead of sitting on top. My skin is dehydrated, and just drinks this in. I prefer to buff...
