Things to Rave About:
1) Feels and Acts Like a Primer: The texture of this foundation is very slick and silky, sliding effortlessly onto the skin and creating a smooth, even base.2) Lightweight: This foundation is the closest thing you can get to a tinted moisturizer without being labeled as one. It has a lotion like feel that is extremely liquid-like and even a tad moisturizing.
3) Beneficial Ingredients: The additions of goji berry and collagen create a 2 in 1 feature by permitting this foundation to not only perfect skin with coverage, but also treat it invisibly for hours once worn.
Things to Rant About:
1) Wears off Easily: Due to the watery texture, it is difficult for this foundation to stick and stay put onto the skin. The foundation never dries and turns matte but rather remains in a wet-looking condition.2) May Turn Skin Oily: Due to the silky, dewy finish of this foundation, oily skin types should stay away, as a mix of this foundation and natural oils will create a greasy mess.
Is it For You?:
Yes, if you have dry skin and crave a hint of moisture and dewiness . No, if you have oily skin and need a matte, dry finish.Ratings:
