I'm not a regular/experienced foundation-wearer so please take this review with a grain of salt. Wanted a FA-safe skin tint for special occasions, and this checked all the boxes on paper, including being inexpensive and widely available in the USA. Ultimately, this product did give me little irritation whiteheads and exacerbated some texture issues. I found that it needed some elbow grease to Show more
It looked fine on the skin but the smell was very powerful and it almost immediately broke me out.

this concealer is OK. the coverage is full and it’s not easy to blend, but once it’s blended, it does the job decently well.
