I've been using this as my "day off" makeup because I like to have a bit of a tint on but to be honest this is very similar to my much beloved Guerlain Lingerie De Peau BB Cream, minus the sunscreen, in terms of both coverage and wear, it's something that gives me enough coverage, especially paired with a concealer, that I'd feel confident wearing it out to work or special occasions, and it looks like just nicely polished skin!
What do I use to apply the product?
