I love this foundation for special occasions and events. I wore this for the ball and it lasted well without requiring to be touched up. I think this is my first ever high end purchase but its price when compared to other "drugstore" foundations isn't that different.
I was shade matched at a Farmers store and they also give out a sample of the foundation. It isn't the most weightless of foundations but surprisingly it didn't make my face look caked on or over done. My skin wasn't irritated and it didn't cause me to break out.
I have been using this foundation for over 5 years and have yet to find anything better. I initially tried Estée Lauder double wear due to the long lasting claims and it delivers just that. I get quite a sweaty face if over exerted and this make up still Stays on. I can even swim with it and it still stays. Great in my busy life as I never have to worry about reapplying during the day. I also love the coverage of this foundation as it evens my skin out beautifully and hides all my imperfections. Big thumbs up from me
Tips: Find a cleanser that works at removing this makeup. I’ve found a $5 Kmart brand does the trick or an oil based cleanser. I also like to apply a light oil to my skin before applying as it gives my makeup a dewy and fresh look.
