I like coverage and texture of this foundation. It looks pretty good as well. I don't care for the container, as I'd prefer a tube to dispense for cleanliness. Overall happy with my purchase.

Proslight, moisturizing
I was looking for a light foundation to smooth out skin color, especially around the nose/brow ridge where I can get reddish. I ordered online which was a little interesting as far as picking color, but will say that at least on my screens the color was very accurate to what I received. I chose this foundation knowing it would be a little heavier than a truly light foundation, but wanted something with a bit more coverage than a light foundation I was using. When I opened this I was surprised how thick of coverage it really was. It took literally a pea-size to cover my face, and was glad I had moisturized first to allow a smooth thin coverage, and took some spreading to really even out the foundation color. At this rate it will last years! So it was a little thicker than I anticipated, but that was my error in underestimating how much coverage this would provide. For as thick as it is, it is surprisingly light and smooth, impressively so. So perhaps not the product I was looking for, but it is a quality product.
I love this foundation because it is super-moisturizing without looking greasy or oily, it is perfect for dry skin. It is a full coverage foundation that gives your complexion a flawless look yet it feels lightweight on your skin. It's a luxurious cream that blends so easily and never settles into lines or creases. It looks so natural, it never has that mask-like look that other foundations do. I think it must have light diffusing properties in it because it gives my skin a radiant glow, I don't even need to use a highlighter when I wear this. It stays on until I remove it with cleanser. Also, this is one of the very few foundations with an SPF in it that doesn't make my eyes water so I can use it in the under eye area. Clarins is an excellent line, their plant-based products are gentle yet very effective.
