When my skin started to become blemish galore during lockdown I was on the hunt for a foundation that not only covered my blemishes but also helped it to. After searching for a few days and going back and forth with the Nars foundation I finally made the decision to purchase this, and found the foundation finder and colour matcher on her website very helpful although; I did think the one they matched me with would have been too dark so I went a shade lighter but with the same undertone. so glad I did! I am a neutral tone so I chose (5 neutral) and it still looked a little yellow when I first tried it on the back of my hand. I was a little scared to put it on my face but proceeded anyways! Luckily it was a good match ! On application I tried to follow charlottes way of using a brush with little product (as I heard a lot goes a long way) but after doing this a few times it just never seemed to look quite right on my skin and I was becoming frustrated cause I really wanted to love this foundation (especially because I just spent £34 on it). So I gave up with the brush and went back to my old ways and used a beauty blender. It blended and melted on the skin much better but does give you a more fuller coverage which I didn’t mind too much as long as it didn’t look caked on which it didn’t. Phew! It didn’t fully dry down as I only powder my t-zone with her airbrush flawless powder but it does still transfer. Throughout the day it wore well and the oils on my forehead seemed to be controlled which I was very happy with! It did go a bit patchy on my chin but I am really dry in that area, i was half expecting this , so I would need to take this out maybe if I was to go out all day to just top us around the chin or just use a concealer . Overall I do like this foundation however it’s took me a long time to figure out how to use as I am a light coverage kind of girl. Still not sure if I will repurchase but wanna keep trying it and use it. What do you guys think? Show less
