I don't like this foundation. I have normal skin and this always breaks down on me, no matter the base underneath it. It kinda feels like pigment in a watery-silicony base, with no adherent...

Got this in 3.5. It’s natural looking and beautiful, but it’s too expensive to use regularly. It was more medium coverage than full which I prefer.
