I used to be in a position to mix it out with simply my finger, and located that the consistency blends actually properly into my pores and skin. It affords the right quantity of colour correction with out really wanting like make-up, so it is excellent for foundation-free days. I did discover that with the thinner system, it does dry pretty shortly—so remember to pair it with a brilliant hydrating eye cream and/or concealer to stop emphasis on any high quality strains.”
