    Feels nice. Looks nice for 5 minutes then looks like crap. Very masky, melts into and accentuates deep lines - extremely unnatural looking finish. Yuck!

    I agree with the poster below that said the color range does not suit asian skin - what a disappointment! this does smooth out my skin, but the color is off, and it makes me break out :(

    Use a foundation brush and it will give you light-medium coverage. Use a sponge and it will give you medium-heavy coverage. It's a great foundation to even out your skin tone.Very quick and easy to...
