I bought this thinking it would be something I could use every day, since I don't want to wear as much makeup as I do at work, but I can't go barefaced. After applying sunscreen and a skin-toning primer, it erased my pores, smoothed my skin, and left me with a soft, beautiful complexion! It's much lighter than foundation. With proper makeup, it tends to smudge, but since it's not proper, it doesn't smudge. It was such a great product that I felt like I'd found something great. It also made me think that maybe powder foundation, which I don't use often, would be good too.
