This is a really great foundation! The coverage is light and natural. The finish is matte, but smooth as opposed to powdery. It really does stay on all day--well over eight hours on my oily skin. I have not experienced any breakouts or other problems. Another plus is the inclusion of SPF 15 in the lighter shades (SPF 12 in the darker ones) that is provided by titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. This foundation does contain a few sparkles, although they really are not noticeable.
I deducted a point for the color selection. There are not enough shades for everyone to find a match. Women with very light or very dark skin will probably have a hard time finding a good match. I bought Ivory, the lightest shade, and it was a touch too dark and too pinkish.
Overall, I definetly recommend this foundation!
