Advantages: Not oily or drying

Disadvantages: Slightly irritating pump

I only bought this because it was heavily reduced in my local Boots store but I am glad I got it!

The problem I have with makeup is that my skin is slightly oily so it doesn't tend to stay on for long and just makes my skin feel even oilier at the end of the day. This foundation doesn't do that though. It stays on and it doesn't go at all greasy even after hours. And it even works on dry skin too so it's perfect if you have problems with both (which I do). So it doesn't dry skin out and it doesn't make skin greasy but just leaves it feeling perfectly smooth and healthy.

The 17 range is not expensive and having problematic skin I don't tend to look at the cheaper make up because I never think it will work on me but this one definitely does and I think it's excellent value for money. It has also lasted quite a long time although the pump action top gets a bit temperamental towards the end. For under £6 you won't find better.

I don't know if I've just been lucky or if the colours are particularly good but this is also the best match I have found for my skin tone. I find it gives good coverage and looks pretty natural which is always good.

Whatever your skin type this is the stuff to buy!

Summary: Excellent for any skin type
