Advantages: Good price, plenty of product

Disadvantages: The pump sometimes releases too much product

I purchased this product after seeing the advert claiming that it makes your pores disappear when wearing it. I was also looking for a new foundation as i found that previous liquid ones i had tried didn't work well with my skin. At the time of purchasing the product it was rather cheap as it had an introductory offer on it of £5.99 from Boots and at the moment it is only £5.89 as there is an offer on maybelline products where you can save up to £2. The foundation comes in 8 shades and i chose the second to lightest shade which is cameo. After applying moisturiser and primer i pressed the pump carefully to release a small amount of the product onto the back of my hand. I then applied it using a foundation brush because i found that when i tested it by using just my hands it dried quickly so there wasn't much time to blend it in evenly. I found that the product gave very good coverage compared to foundations i had previously tried but sometimes i need to use concealer over the top of it, but not much. The product gives a slight glow to skin and does seem to make pores less noticeable like it claims to. However i think if you use too much of it then it can make your skin appear very shiny but this can easily be fixed with powder. It lasts for most of the day though i found sometimes it had appeared to have worn off towards the end of the day. I think this product is good for nights out or wearing for a short period of time but if you're looking for a long lasting product then i'd try a different foundation!

Summary: A good foundation that lasts for a reasonable amount of time, giving your skin a poreless look
