Nice texture and it matched my skin tone nicely!

I just didn't like how glittery the foundation was!

For the price this is a really nice foundation. Personally I found the coverage quite light but you could build on it for more coverage. I didn't find it too sparkly, there is a shimmer but it is subt...Read more

This isn't the best. It's glittery and lightweight so I'm not sure if people looking for a flawless finish would like this. It's just as well it got discountinued where I live.
