Finally, I’m ready to tell you my opinion about that such a cute of packaging design and product. I’ve been testing it for a long time, and my opinion was all the time changing. It’s very contradicting for me.
Let’s start with the packaging. It’s of very good quality! Everybody asks me about it, if I take it out:)
Inside everything is also very beautiful.
There’s a protecting plastic top, then protecting tape and the sponge itself.
Product promises:
1st Ever Mineral ABC Cushion Foundation! Weightless mineral formula provides the multi-tasking benefits of an alphabet cream with the gentle, flawless, skin-perfecting effects of minerals. Revolutionary cushion foundation instantly corrects visible imperfections, blurs fine lines and pores with a perfected airbrushed finish. SPF 50 Broad Spectrum Sunscreen protects from UVA/UVB rays.

Featuring a proprietary ABC blend of complexion enhancing minerals, soothing plant extracts, smoothing antioxidants and skin nourishing vitamins for moisturizing & brightening benefits that leave skin with a luminous finish.
Luxurious puff applicator provides a cooling & skin refreshing finish upon application. Ultra-convenient for on-the-go!
It’s better to apply the 15 minutes before going out into the sun, like many others sunscreens.
I ordered the medium shade, there’s also the light one. I never order light ones, as my skin is swarthy. I watched a lot of videos on YouTube, so decided to order that shade and look how dark it actually is.
Of course, if you blend it, it isn’t like in the packaging. But it also doesn't perfectly suit my skin tone:(
See the difference? I do:( But that’s only a half of the problem. The most important is that the product highlights the peeling parts of the skin. I’ve got combination skin, but still the feeling of tightness doesn’t leave me, especially straight after the application.
So, for me, I found some advantages:
+ beautiful packaging
+ it’s convenient to take with me
+ SPF
+ more or less natural ingredients
And disadvantages:
-it doesn’t match the skin color
-highlights peeling parts of the skin
-it’s difficult to apply with a sponge
I’m ready to forgive the dark color:) I’ll use it in summer. I hope that summer will also provide me with no peeling parts. The product isn’t good for winter. I hardly ever use it.
I won’t buy it the second time.
Do I recommend it? Yes, especially, if you don’t have dry skin. That product will also be good for summer, as there’s SPF.
