Shades available locally:
Shell, Nude, Natural Beige, Medium Beige, Cool Beige
WHAT I LIKE:
* sheer-medium (but buildable) coverage
* has spf 20
* unscented
* not mask like or fake looking
* my face looks glowing coz of the tiny shimmers
* lightweight - doesn't feel heavy on the face
* spreads easily, non- sticky
* no allergies or breakouts
* love the pump packaging!
* my face doesn't look shiny after an hour or two (i have normal skin w/ oily t-zone)
WHAT I DON'T LIKE:
* limited shades available locally- but I'm glad SHELL perfectly matched my NC20 skintone.
* still used concealer on my undereyes, it looked brighter/ illuminated after applying the foundation - but it still didn't totally cover the "darkness" LOL
TIPS:
You only need a pump or two to cover your face and neck area. You can use either a brush or a sponge to apply. Apply in thin layers until you get the coverage you want.
If you have severe pimple marks, scars etc, I think the foundation will not totally cover (since it doesn't have full coverage when used alone) - but it will help reflect light on your problem areas so that its less noticeable.
Some people noticed the visible shimmers especially under daylight - to tone this down apply loose powder. But in my experience, i'm not bothered by it coz its hardly visible (on me).
ADDICTION FACTOR:
I love it!
RATING :
4 out of 5.

you really know your own forte when it comes to make-up...though I am not really a fan of make-ups but if I feel being a princess, I think i can ask you for suggestions and help.
Makes me wonder when we meet in Cebu soon, if I have to prepare myself and make sure to get my face all prep-up....just kidding...

Take Care Always,
with love

wow! you are so pretty Khymm! i heard alot of good stuff about this product, looks amazing on you!
I agree, your skin looks glowing! The shimmers are scaring me, since I don't have flawless skin, but it suits you perfect dear! =) Great rev!
thank you sisters! =) its really nice to read your comments..
@ rosey - i used Covergirl classic blush in rose silk + the MUA used Nichido blush in Cool rum to contour. =)
i swatched shell and nude at the store, but both were too dark/pink for me. =( sayang, really want to try this.
This sounds pretty nice and I love the blush on your cheeks, especially. :) Waiting for this to launch in India.
wow, you look pretty. i just want to ask about the staying power and how will it hold up the shines on a very oily skin :) thanx,,
@ limegreen - thanks! I have combination skin (normal w/ oily t-zone) and this foundie lasts for about 6-8 hours.
