Replaced my foundation

After years of wearing MAC Studio Fix fluid I began looking for something lighter. I have reddish, blotchy skin that gets very oily in my tzone leaving me with a mess of foundation that slides off around 3pm. I was amazed at how smoothly this goes on, how buildable the coverage is where I need it and how perfect it leaves my complexion. After 3 weeks of using it my skin looks better than it's ever...read more looked before. No more breakout, no more oil slicks. If anything it is a little bit drying, so I use 2 drops of jojoba oil before applying and my skin is perfection. I commute 20 miles a day by bicycle, but over 2 hours by train. Last Friday night I went out after work and didn't reapply my makeup and still looked fantastic. I couldn't ask for anything more in a makeup.

One of the top BB Creams I've tried

Once BB creams hit the market, I tried most drugstore brands and then sampled the higher-end brands when I could. This is one of my favorites -- it's smooth, has good coverage and as others have mentioned, you don't to use much. It's been a go-to for a little while now. I find that when my skin is on the drier side, it settles in my pores and gives me a white polka dot look. Sometimes, I mix it ...read morewith another favorite (Garnier) and that provides the PERFECT color and coverage. As for color -- I have very fair skin, and generally have to go with the lightest shade (which is still sometimes too orange). With this cream, it's perfect when I'm my usual un-tanned self; once I have a bit of color, I need to mix it with another cream or follow up with bronzer so I don't look washed out.

silicone?

I like the idea of this product. I like the color choices. the light matches me very well. I feel like it has silicone, though. It has that type of "slip" to it. I haven't broken out since trying it, but there are other BB creams that have a nicer feel to them.
