I was so excited to try this foundation as i had read rave reviews and seen incredible differences on instagram pages etc. I actually asked the make up artist at charlotte tilbury for a tester pot of the foundation to go along with my purchase so i could try that before breaking into the bottle (I was informed that they didn't do tester pots as they have a foundation colour for everyone and the colour i have is perfect for my skin) i had a voucher so i bought it anyway and it looked fine in the shop. Next day when i put it on the coverage was incredible and looked flawless, however the shade given was far to pale so i returned for a slightly darker colour. Once happy with the colour i tried the foundation for a good week. It looked absolutely flawless upon application ( i always use the urban decay setting spray to make it last) however after lunch time it began to look ashy on my face and after finishing work was patchy in alot of places and looked really ashy (like i was wearing a powder foundation) not the look i was going for. Upon application i found if i didnt work quickly it became hard to blend and stuck in places ( i always serum and moisturise and prime before putting foundation one). The one good thing i would say is is photographs amazingly but it is very heavy and not a good day foundation Show less
