Most likely I will continue to use

By my teens and early twenties I gave up foundation completely. I have fairly clear skin and am focused on the health of my skin. However, since my late 20s, I've decided I need something more. I started out with tinted moisturizers and switched to foundations, which promise flawless skin perfection all day long. Foundations, no matter what brand I tried (even with primers and setting spray), left streaks and spots on my skin. If you apply loose powder over it, it will become sticky and soak into the pores. So I play with the tinted moisturizer again. As long as it's a win. It is important to me that it has a strong sun protection factor. Applies easily and evenly. While I've used a brush to apply foundation in the past, I find it works best when I apply it with my fingertips. Goes smoothly. He's not sticky. This keeps my fingers from feeling slimy. No bad smell. It is very transparent and only minimally suitable for assembly. On the second use it brightens and evens out my skin tone and reduces the appearance of some dark spots. But it doesn't cover them completely. If you are looking for full coverage this is not for you. It has a wet finish which I don't really like but I know it's all the rage at the moment. I just make sure to powder after using the product for the first time and then top up with a re-powder a few times a day. I am very pale in color and mostly use ivory in my makeup. Without a guide, I took a chance and ordered vanilla. That works fine. It has warm yellow undertones, so if you have cooler skin tones, maybe try an opal shade. Mine is somewhere in between, so I think it might be there as well.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I don't remember
