    Perfect oil-free formula for oily skin types!!!

    This product is nestled nicely in a slender glass bottle with a pump. I chose the shade, “Buff” (the 3rd shade in 14 shades series) because it has a bit of a yellow undertone to it. It went on a bit light but it actually blended nicely into my skin and matched my skin tone really well. This foundation contains salicylic acid to help those with acne prone skin and for those who have oily, combination skin like myself. I do breakout from time to time and currently have a couple of small breakouts at the moment. This foundation covered them up nicely without looking too heavy or cakey in appearance.

    The pump dispenses the right amount of product for your first layer. I liked applying this foundation with a stippling brush and then taking out the excess with a damp beauty blender. It dries down fairly quickly and I felt like I didn't really need to powder too much. It has a lighter coverage. It's perfect for an everyday foundation. It's certainly buildable but I would say it would only build up to a medium coverage. This oil-free formula is perfect for my combination, sensitive skin type where I’m quite oily around my T-zone and where I had some redness in my face, it covered it nicely. It doesn't carry much of a scent so that’s a plus.

    I tested this foundation on several occasions and had worn on each occasion for about 8-10 hours to work. To me it had a soft matte finish at first but as the day progressed it turned into a more satiny finish (some dewiness to it). Definitely felt nice and comfortable to wear throughout the day. It felt like my makeup stayed put. I did get oily and shiny around the nose area. I didn't apply too much setting powder (translucent powder) because on a day that I did, the powder started to crease around my eye area and made me look cakey. I would just do a light dusting around the T-zone only. It wore really well after an hour at the gym. It didn't really budge much at all and I worked up quite a sweat doing cardio and strength training.

    All and all I love this foundation and out of all the foundations I have ever tried in my life, this one is at the top of my list. I absolutely love it so much!!! It's very light weight like I don't feel like I'm wearing anything too heavy. It's breathable and comfortable. It doesn't feel tight for being an oil-free formula. Overall perfect everyday foundation and especially in summer heat and humidity.
