Skin prep is the secret!
I was surprised at how much coverage and buildable this tinted moisturizer is. It is very similar to the CDP Radiant Cream Foundation. I ordered Shade 2 and I am light medium skin with pink and tan undertones. I am also dry, and I still wear my regular moisturizer and primer underneath this for more glow. I really love this shade because it does make me look more tan -it looked like it would be too dark. But not once it settles and I use my concealer. I did not order the lightest shade because it looked more yellow undertone (which is not flattering on me.) I am enjoying this formula because I can still see freckles peek through. I would love a lighter pink toned shade for winter. When I still want to look good, yet natural during the day, I spread this with my fingers and then bounce my BBlender all over. My friends did not know I was wearing tinted moisturizer, when I told them I skipped foundation today they were very surprised. It is thick and creamy and I would say it has a velvet/ satin like finish. Not at all greasy. It does hit the glowing point after about an hour and a half. If you have a special pool party where you don't want to wear lots of foundation, but still have that VS skin this will be gorgeous. Skin prep is important though and I definitely still need my moisturizer, SPF primer underneath. (La Mer/ TF spf) I felt too dry and I could see dry patches here and there when I tried it as an all in one. It is expensive but it is worth it to me!
