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.
I've been using it for years now. It doesn't dry out my skin and it tones it up, so it's great.
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.
It has great coverage!
Previously, I used to buy products from drug stores, but there weren't many colors that suited me, so I did some research and went to Clinique, which I also use for skin care, and heard that this foundation contains serum and lasts really well, so I bought it! This foundation spreads really well, so half a pump is enough. I apply more to areas I want to cover like a concealer. It's very moisturizing, so I don't feel the dryness that is common with foundations, so I recommend it for people with dry skin!
