I applied it with the Ulta Professional brand Sculpted brush. This glides on so smoothly even without a primer! This is also the most coverage I have ever gotton from a bb or cc cream. It has around the same coverage as the IT! cosmetics cc cream but doesn't make me ridiculously oily like the one from IT! cosmetics. It also has spf 20, which is always a plus!
This is right after the application in natural light. I applied two layers with no concealer on my blemishes. I set it with a very light layer of my bare minerals matte foundation. I usually use this as a setting powder and wanted to stay consistent.
This is in natural light around 4 hours after application and after being outside for over an hour in humid July South Carolina weather!
Same time, 4 hours, with flash.
And this is at the end of my day, total 9 and half hours after the first application with no touchups throughout the day!! I was amazed! I have never had luck like this with a bb/cc cream! It did break down around my chin and nose by the end of the day, as do most of my foundations. On other days where I wasn't testing this I touched up throughout the day in those areas and it looked much better. I love the finish. It does not have matte finish, but it doesn't have a dewy finish either. I think it looks more like skin, with a slight dewiness to it but not an overwhelming amount.
The only negative thing I can say, and it is most likely individual to me, but if my skin has dry spots the bb cream is not very forgiving. My skin refuses to take foundation when it has dry patches and/or is peeling so for the couple of days where I had this issue this looked pretty bad on. Other than that this will forever be in my collection!
