This was a no-no. When I apply it to my face, it turns out quite white and gets shiny easily. Well, maybe it's just because I'm dark-skinned and tend to get shiny easily, but... I always use foundation from any brand that's two shades darker than my standard shade, and after applying this, my skin tone becomes strangely brighter, so it looks mismatched. I think it's on the cheap side for AQ, but I don't think I'll be buying it again. But the liquid is smooth and easy to apply.
