I have this foundation in the shade 754 and I have an NC25-30 Asian skin tone that is acne prone/combination oily/dry skin. When I wear this foundation by itself it gives me a very glowy/dewy complexion and doesn't emphasize the dry areas of my skin. It feels really light weight and provides medium coverage. The foundation is oil free and doesn't cause any break outs for me which is GREAT because I have very sensitive acne-prone skin. I can go about 4-6 hours of wear before I have to blot with this foundation, which is pretty good considering the dewy finish this foundation gives. I took off one lippie because the color match isn't quite perfect on me as the foundation oxidizes a bit on my skin and makes it look unnatural. When I wear this foundation only, it seems to sit on top of my skin versus melding into it to look more like natural skin. What I have currently been doing with this foundation is using it as a bronzer since it does oxidize a bit. I use the Ishizawa Nanoce Bb Cream to even out my skin tone (which i absolutely looove and it's more matte than this), then use a small amount of this foundation as a bronzer to make my face more glowy/dewy. I apply this foundation with a stippling brush and it looks beautiful. Ever since I started using this as a bronzer people have been flooding me with compliments on how radiant and fresh my face looks. This really is a fantastic product and if you want that glow/radiance then definitely check this out! The packaging is super hygienic because of the pump and the bottle feels really weighty and sturdy. If you want that natural radiance you can use this as a bronzer/contouring product like me! Less is more in my book :)
