I have been looking for a great foundation. As i rarely use foundation and prefer my skin to look less cakey, fresh and dewey, considering that I am now over 40, I want to look fabulous still.
So i looked and read the review from all the beauty gurus, and googles. When I saw the price, I was having a thousand change thoughts on trying this one, but I want to know if this is as good as it was explained.
I am looking for a foundation that is light and buildable.
