I really wanted to love this foundation. I love serum foundations as they are really light and you can't really feel them on the skin, like this one. However, even though this foundation has a surprisingly amazing coverage, medium, that is. I still use concealer for my problematic parts. However, it works as well as my normal (non-serum medium coverage foundations). Unfortunately, it really doesn't last very well on the skin, it starts breaking up pretty badly on my skin. I do have oily skin, but most foundations last much better. Also, I'm just not a fan of the matt finish.

I am in my mid 20's with acne/problem, fair tone skin and green eyes. My hair is dark brown, normal with normal texture.
I find this a light to medium coverage, with a slightly matiffying effect. I tend to need concealer to build coverage in certain areas, as its difficult to build it up. The dispenser is pretty poor too & has a tendency to splatter foundation all over the place!

This has fast become my fave budget foundation. It’s so lightweight yet provides good coverage and works well at keeping my skin tone even. I love the glowy effect it gives to my skin. Make sure you shake the bottle before dispensing to get the right amount of pigment. You could easily pair two of these foundations together in different colours and get the perfect shade to suit your skin tone. It is also a product that is buildable if fuller coverage was needed. Long lasting, doesn’t leave skin greasy. A real hidden gem and worth looking into!

.. At how much I love this foundation. It has amazing coverage and is super wearable and long lasting. Only issue is when ordering online it's difficult to know what shades to go for. I ended up going for two and I mix them for my perfect shade. Definitely worth a try!

I ordered it online a few days ago and it is one of my favourite foundations. It doesn’t make your face look cakey and they have lots of different shades😍

This foundation is great if you don’t want a cakey finish. Plenty of shades to choose from and a little goes a surprisingly long way considering it is quite watery! Definitely a perfect summer foundation!

I am using shade 1.0P which is one of the lightest shades and has a pink undertone. I thought I had chosen the wrong shade as I have a neutral undertone to my skin, but this blends well into my skin and provides a natural semi-matte finish ideal for every day wear. It lasts all day with or without using a primer, it can be any primer you have it doesn’t have to be one of the Ordinary primers. It tones down the redness in my cheeks and nose without hiding my freckles which I love. It is the perfect foundation when you want a natural casual make-up look rather than a smart make-up look. One pump covers one half of my face evenly using my fingers or my BeautyBlender or brush. If I have applied it using my fingers or BeautyBlender I always buff it into my skin with a brush. It does not settle in my fine lines and wrinkles. Yes, I would re-purchase it and have, I have purchased 1.0N to see what the difference on my skin is.

I love this serum foundation, I find it very dewy and works well on my combination skin. It’s a lightweight foundation however, it’s buildable and can get it to about a medium coverage.
It’s been a year since I’ve been wearing this foundation and I have not looked back to my pervious foundation (YSL). The shade I use in the ordinary foundation is 1.0P and I find it matches my skin colour which is my desired look!
When applying this foundation I prep my skin by cleansing it and then using a toner and face moisturiser to give a good base before applying my foundation.
I highly recommend this foundation! It’s under £6 which you can’t go wrong with
