I use this bb cream for days i do not want to wear foundation. The texture of this cream is like a good facial moisturizer. I have oily skin so i do not wear a moisturizer underneath this cream. Also it might be a good idea to set this bb cream with a translucent powder as the cream does look oily after a few hours. Having said that, it does make my face look luminous even after i wash my face at the end of the day. A good product if you have dry skin. A good product but a expensive.
