Proslight, flawless, moisturizing, natural, runs dark, blends well
I agree with the other reviewers that said the cream gel colors run dark. I use the Doirskin Nude foundation in medium beige, number 30. I got the light beige, number 20, in the cream gel and it's a perfect match with my foundation. I use the cream gel for those times when I just want coverage in some areas rather than the doing my whole face using foundation. I think if I used it for full covage it would take me longer, but that might be because I don't have the technique down yet. One thing I did find is that it also works great as a concealer for those areas where the strength of a real concealer isn't needed. And I love that it blends in perfectly. Just like the other Doirskin Nude products, this product is long lasting, doesn't crease and doesn't change color. I've probably gotten to the point that if it says Doirskin Nude, I'm ready to buy it.

Proslight, natural
I wanted to switch from a liquid foundation (currently using Smashbox and LOVE it) to a creme compact for the ease of travel and on-the-go touch ups. I have very fair olive toned skin so I have a difficult time finding the right shade in most brands, they are either too orange, yellow, pink, or just plain too sheet-white in the fairer shades. The in store associate tried 020 on me and it's a great match.
After the first few days I was a little disappointed. The product seemed to sit atop my skin rather than really sink in for a flawless look. I gave my face a good exfoliating treatment and tossed the admittedly cheap-o foundation brush I was using. It made a world of difference! Now I really enjoy this foundation. The associate suggested a Sheseido brush to use, which I'm sure is fabulous. But after tossing my cheap brush I started using the sponge which comes with the compact and I think it does a great job.
Overall light but smooth and even foundation. It may not be my HG but it's a solid product which I'd buy again.

Proslight, flawless
Love this so much. I'm fair and use 020. This covers so nice. I do use a pro foundation brush and clean it daily. The result is flawless application. Does not accent fine lines and makes pores disappear. This will be as close to "airbrush" as we can get. Very pleased, however it does have an odd oder to it, but won't stop my use.
This is way better than the Chanel Teint Innocence compact make-up. Which I thought was fantastic, and it is...but it unfortunately made me break out. I managed to get a sample of this Diorskin Creme Gel compact make-up in the light beige, and I really love it! So far no break outs, feels like nothing on and looks it..but w/beautiful invisible, looks like your skin but better coverage. Doesn't make my huge pores look larger. I was afraid it might be a bit dry looking...but I put this on after my moisturizer and it looks great! I wanted to try it first in a sample, before spending more money on something that wasn't going to work for me.......so now I will break down and buy the full size. If you have very dry skin, get a sample first. I'm combination.
