Smells like perfume so bad
for Armani, i expected better.
Ive had cheap concealers do the job better than this and it feels so dissapointing. Even with a ton of moisturizing underneath, the foundation flöakes and dries all over my tzone.. it doesn't cover my pimples or such either. the only upside is that its easily applicable, feels very light on the skin and makes my skintone even and glowy. but a moisturizer could do Show more
