I wonder how many bottles I've had so far. Before buying this, I tried other liquid foundations, but they didn't suit me, so I switched to this one as usual. This is great for my skin. It stays in place all day, spreads well, and has good coverage. I can apply it over dark spots, and it's fine. My skin looks beautiful when I use this.
I think it has a high coverage. As long as the blemishes and dark circles are not extremely dark, I think it will be able to hide them quite well. I have had very bad dark circles under my eyes since I was a child, so I definitely need a concealer, but even though it contains beauty serum ingredients, my skin feels a little dry after I take it off. I have dry skin to begin with, but using this product did not give me any sense of moisture. I think people with dry skin might be better off using a foundation in the winter to balance it out.
A reliable foundation. It doesn't smudge easily in the summer, and it's waterproof, so it's sweat-resistant. You can use it in the winter as well without it drying out. Blending it with a wet sponge creates a semi-matte finish, while blending it with a dry sponge creates a very matte finish. I change it to suit my style of the day. It doesn't feel thick, and the coverage is high, so I only need half a pump for each application. It's great value for money. I don't have to worry about shine for about 6 hours.
It matches the color of my neck and has good coverage, yet gives a natural finish that suits my age.
I bought 61 Ivory after checking out the color. One pump seems like a lot. It's thin, so if you apply it in layers only on problem areas, it won't smudge and isn't too heavy, which is great. Even Better Makeup might be better for those who prefer something lighter. Even in the summer, I work in an air-conditioned room, so this doesn't dry out my skin, so it's just right for me.
