I don’t typically wear matte foundations, but this one is truly beautiful. It is a small package considering the price, but little goes a Long way so it honestly can last you a long time!I personally have oily skin, but still tend to experience dry spots with certain foundations, and I haven’t experienced it with this one! It also stays on for a very long time! The matte is also very natural and doesn’t make your face look 2D in my opinion!I also found it to blend nicely with both my cream and powder blushes! It does sliiightly oxidise but not too much!! Because the product is very full coverage, you do NOT need a lot—so I find this product pretty lightweight tbh, but if you’re applying it the same way youtubers do, then it would probably be quite heavy! I am a very neutral olive, and this shade suits me perfectly, and I’ve found some other people online saying the same thing— so if you’re a neutral olive don’t be scared of the name!This colour is described as being a light shade and with that I disagree, I definitely think this falls way more into the light-medium area! And unfortunately there aren’t any lighter olive shades :-/ Also, if you have this product in your makeup bag instead of just standing upright then you will experience the foundation somewhat oozing out of the product, and it does make the dropper a lil less controllable.

It's my current favourite foundation and I went through a lot of foundations from drugstore and highend. It's perfect for my combination skin. Not too matte not too dewy, It's very luminous and satin in very delicate way. It dosen't settle into my smile lines or lines under my eyes. It blurs my pores, skin looks airbrushed. It look flawless all day and photographs beautifly. It feels very lightweight like I have nothing on. It can be built up from sheer to full coverage. Only downside to this foundation is that it dose contain alcohol so it can be a little drying but I take a good care of my skin before and after the foundation. I will re purchase for sure.

One of the BEST foundations I own. Only Estée Lauder's Double Wear Nude Water Fresh is in a like class. Medium to full coverage and looks like a slight makeup over skin to like skin look. Great match too for me NC 37, Dior Backstage 3N, Filorga 02-Nude Gold, Estée Lauder DWN WF in 4N1 Shell Beige (slightly more ashy, but looks good).

So far, I love this foundation. Living in a tropical climate, I see it is indeed sweatproof and waterproof. The color is perfect for my NC42 skin tone. I have combo skin and this gives me a slightly dewy finish after a while but I don’t mind. It has a scent but not overpowering. FYI: this foundation leaks badly if you shake it up while the cap is on or is being shipped/transported around. To shake, remove the cap and use your finger on the opening BEFORE shaking. (For reference, I also use Giorgio Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Foundation in 7.5 Tan, 310 in Fenty Beauty, Iconic London Pigment Foundation Stick in 2.1 and Chanel’s Vitalumière Aqua Fresh and Hydrating Cream Compact Sunscreen Makeup in 60 Beige.)

Fantastic buildable foundation with exemplary shade range. Value for money is great - 50ml instead of the usual 30ml. I had several great matches but I found my perfect match in 1CR, which doesn\'t happen often! More neutral toned than most Dior foundations - I found the shades were pinkier than normal. Dior often runs too yellow for me. Great for mixing. Long wearing, even in humid climates.
