On it's own, this really doesn't do much. I don't have perfect skin, but it's also not perfect. The first time I used this, I felt like I wasted my money. But when I was washing it off that...

This product is great if you want something light. Does not cover much at all but feels nice and light.

I really like this product because it goes on really thin and smooth. It is water based so you barely feel that you have it on. The only thing is that my skin becomes oily throughout the day so I...

Me: LLL NC15-20/Highly Sensitive Dry-ish Skin. I wear C1. It is a good match but the shade is forgiving anyway due to the sheerness of the foundation. Finish: Fresh dewy skin-like. This feels...
