Advantages: colour matched

Disadvantages: watery, made me break out

Appearance:
Attractive glass bottle, convienient pumping action

Ingredients:
Claims to be "Pure.liquid" but i'm not so sure. Tends to make me break out, looks quite oily on the skin. I find that it contains something which clogs my pores

Expectation vs result:
i thought it looked great, but then again, makeup tends to look better under artificial lighting and i found didn't look as good when i applied in the morning. Does not last all day at all. I have very oily skin and this looks horribly shiny by the end of the day and looks caked in some areas.

Price:
I got this on a special introductory offer of £5.82 I think, I thought for that price, I may aswell give it a try! I already had the mineral powder and was keen to try the new "pure" liquid one. As for the price now, I think it is £7.82 in boots, might be cheaper in superdrug but I have a boots advantage card so it makes it worth paying a tiny bit more in boots for it.

Overall Opinion:
I don't like this foundation, although the colour is a good match (I never have trouble finding the right colour for me) I just don't think it's worth the money and felt quite watery. Doesn't give a lot of coverage and needs concealer underneath.

Summary: do not recommend to teenagers with problem skin.
