They added, "This is the only foundation that does not accentuate your wrinkles/lines. It eliminates them and really creates a 'flawless' look." These are not my words but the words of others who make the comments, 'Wow, your skin is flawless'."
Another five-star reviewer said it has "great coverage, and it doesn't feel heavy on my skin", while a third called it the "best foundation I've ever used." "Face is smooth and fresh all day long," they gushed.
However, only some are as impressed. One person said, "The coverage was good, but it felt and looked kind of cakey. It only lasted me six hours, so it wasn't ultra strong like it said. I have used other foundations from them and liked them, so I was surprised that this one wasn't good like the other ones I tried."
