My nan bought this foundation for me when she went into Boots to get me my normal Dream Matte Mousse foundation and they did not have it- so the shop assistant directed her to this product as an alternative!
This foundation range is great as it seems to have more of a range of tones for paler skin- which is great for me as I find it difficult sometimes to find the right colour- in this case I got 'Warm Almond' which suited me pretty well without being too obvious that I was wearing makeup.
The creamy product slides on well to skin- it comes with a little sponge but I find that it goes on to my skin just as easy with my finger and it blends in well. The cream is also quite light so it doesn't feel like your skin is CAKED in it like some foundations seem. The overall look is a matte look which makes your skin seem more flawless and is pretty good at covering up those embarassing spots and blemishes (that always seem to pop up at the worse possible times!)
The packaging looks very professional with a glass look (although it is actually plastic) top so you can see the product through it and a compartment for keeping the sponge in which is useful.
The only problem I would say about this product is that it seems to run out very quickly! I have only had this pot for a few weeks and I have already used a fair bit of it- the packaging is misleading as it makes you think that there is more foundation in the pot than there actually is- the section for the foundation is actually not very deep so you do not get a lot in there for the money. (I think it was about £11)
All in all its a pretty good foundation but it is a tad on the expensive side, for me anyway as I am just a poor student!
