I bought this foundation because I was on a budget and find NYC products are usually really good and inexpensive. This product was very inexpensive. I put it and it was a nice thick foundation which I really like as I have really un even skin. As the day progressed I was ridiculously shiny. I touched my skin and the coverup literally wiped right off of my face. I wasn't happy. I've tried it again, and It's just an all around bad foundation. Such a shame because I tend to really like NYC
