So, I just picked this up and tested it out. At $12 for a rather small bottle, I was flinching while I paid, but I decided with all the rave reviews I have heard about it, it was worth a shot. I am of course, the lightest shade they offer, Ivory, which I have to say, kind of surprised me, because usually I am the second or third color. But as my friend Julie reminded me, "Don't underestimate your pale skin!"
It dispenses through a pump, which I love because other foundations I have tried require shaking the bottle like it's ketchup at a diner. It looked pretty typical, and I used my fingers to apply it, since I currently lack a foundation brush or sponges. The coverage is really nice, however, I will start adding some moisturizer in with it, because what with it being winter, it accentuates the dry patches on my forehead. After wearing it for a while I looked at my hands and they were sparkling. I thought I had gotten my eyeshadow on them while putting on my foundation, but nope. The foundation has shimmer in it. I wasn't crazy about this at first, but after further assessment, I decided that I don't mind it. I remind myself of a Twilight vampire with my sparkly face. All in all, this is the best drugstore foundation I have come across, and would recommend it.
