Advantages: Glass bottle, fairly cheap

Disadvantages: greasy, leaves orange marks, heavy

This foundation comes in a clear glass bottle which makes it easy to decide what shade you need to purchase it also helps in allowing you to see how much you are using.The pump dispenser also makes sure you get just the right amount, instead of getting to much and wasting some. The foundation comes in a range of 16 shades, ranging from pale to dark.

Ive been wearing foundation now all through out my teenage years and always sturggle to get a shade thats right as im am quite pale, and always end up with an orange line, that leave me looking like im wearing a mask.

This foundation was no different, although it did achieve a nice matte finish which got rid of my shiny patches, it just didn't live up to my expectations. As the range of shades are said to suit any skin type but i could just not get a shade to leave me looking natural.

This product was easy to apply a thin and even coat if you use a foundation brush or a sponge, but is near impossible to apply with your fingertips. it also only lasted a few hours, and when i went to top-up the bits that had faded i ended up with streaking and orange patches, which were highly unattractive.

The foundation claims to leave your skin 17% more hydrated, clearer smoother and more radiant, but for me all it achieved was dry patches around my forehead and nose and greasy patches on my forehead.

It is also said to be tested on sensitive skin, but i suffer with very sensitive skin and ecsma and this foundation seemed to only worsen my symptoms.

A final flaw was the price, although it only costed a meer £7.99 compared to other foundations on the market for this price it just wasn't as good.

To conclude this foundation doesnt live up to what it claims, not worth the money!

Summary: would not recommend!
