I am always on the hunt for great foundations and face products. Why? Because so many out there are awful! But, I am happy to report that this product is not one of those. Not even a little bit.
Although I like the finish that tinted moisturizers give me (dewy and natural looking), I am personally a fan of fuller coverage foundations so I don’t have to add too many layers or use too much concealer. This BB cream gives me great coverage without being too thick or looking cakey. When I apply this, my skin looks like real skin – just a very flawless version of itself.
The texture is kind of thick, but in a moisturizer way in that it thins out well when applied. With only one layer (I use 1.5 pumps and spread over face + down neck), all of my usual redness is covered, a lot of my old acne scars are hidden, and everything just looks really fresh and perfected. I only needed to use concealer under my eyes and on the few spots that were redder, either active breakouts or recent scars. The end look is fabulous.

The wear is on point. It isn’t going to last 10 hours – that isn’t what it is formulated for. But it will last you throughout the day with maybe a minor touch-up after five or six hours.
There are only four shades, which may be a problem for people who are inbetween. But I bet this would be great mixed in with foundation, or because it’s not super full coverage, it probably adapts to a wider range of skin tones. I use shade 001 because I am ghostly and I find that the pink undertones suit me PERFECTLY. Too often I find face products that are the right shade but the wrong undertone and pull too yellow on me. If you are more yellow, you would want to check out shade 002.
I bought each shade to put in my kit because I love it that much.
Anyone tried this? What do you think?
