Advantages: goes on beautifully, makes skin look luminous and healthy

Disadvantages: can start to look shiny and disappears after a while

I love this foundation! I recently bought the product after suffering an allergic reaction to a Boots No. 7 foundation. I was wary about putting anything on my skin but decided to give this a go as the label claimed it was non-comedogenic, oil free, talc free and fragrance free. I was so glad I did. The foundation provides a lovely, luminous coverage, and your skin really does look healthy like the label claims. It goes on beautifully, no need for a make-up sponge, and just a tiny bit provides plenty of coverage. The product is really good value as in my opinion it is just as good as Clinique foundations which are much pricier. I would probably steer clear of this if you have quite oily skin, the 'luminous' effect can start to look a bit shiny, and the foundation does need to be reapplied before a night out as it disappears by the end of the day, but otherwise I would say it suits most skin types. I bought a slightly darker shade than normal as the colours seemed to come up quite light.
The other great thing about this foundation is that I often find makeup irritates me and can leave my skin looking spotty when I remove it. This has not been a problem at all with this product and if anything my skin actually looks better after wearing it!

Summary: Great for most skin types and a bargain buy
