This foundation is really really good. The only reason I haven't given it full marks is because it is expensive and the bottle is quite small. I use 3.5 in this brand and 4.5 for the summer and...

Absolutely awful foundation. Not a good colour match. Made my skin look ghostly but the next shade up too dark. The finish is very heavy feeling and looks very cheap on the skin. I’ve had drugstore...
