RATING: 9.6

Official Description:

Created through a high speed cold fusion process, this ultra-silky emulsion features a perfectly balanced blend of skin-loving ingredients, oil controlling actives, and skin-true pigments—with 16-hour wear. Incredibly smooth and blendable, it glides on with a second-skin feel and multidimensional matte finish. Pigments are precisely balanced through artistry expertise to skin’s top tones and undertones to deliver the most natural-looking shade range for all skin tones. 

This skin-loving, non-acnegenic formula with marine sugar cane algae extract and natural mineral powders helps control excess oil and shine. Meanwhile, moisture-binding glycerin delivers refreshing hydration. Skin feels balanced and comfortable—never tight. Tried and tested in extreme heat and humidity, this 16-hour formula is waterproof and sweat- and humidity-resistant. The flexible coverage won’t crease or streak and stays color-true. Treated skin-true pigments suspended in an emollient gel base float on skin, reflecting light to enhance skin’s natural contours and dimension, instantly concealing redness, discoloration, and pores with full yet natural coverage.

Why We're Feelin' It

Besides the fact that I don't have a perfect shade in this foundation, (Cool Almond is closest to my complexion but it reads a little light on my entire face. Looks fine inside but you can tell in the sun. 🤣) this formula is POPPIN'! It literally does feel weightless on the skin, no matter how many pumps you use and no matter how long you wear it. It has a very comfortable matte formula that is medium coverage. It can be built up to full if you add enough layers. It also has SPF in it which is a major plus! It will definitely last you a full day.
