This is a very light weight foundation and you would not even feel like you are wearing any..Though the name is liquid foundation…it is more of a cream…and just a little bit is enough to cover the whole face..just half a pump..I like the dispensor of the bottle which comes out by twisting when required and goes down when not by twisting again…saves space and makes it easy to carry.
What the Company claims: Light – Medium coverage. Non-greasy, lightweight formula that wont clog your pores and feels just like your own skin. It’s as if you are not wearing any make-up at all. Convenient twist and pump, airless dispenser that reduces spillage and waste.
Directions: Ensure your primer has absorbed first, then apply foundation. Two pumps of foundation is usually sufficient – apply using clean fingertips, liquid foundation brush or a sponge.
Ingredients: Rosa Damascena (Rose) Flower Distillate*, Water, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Zinc Oxide, Mica (CI 77019), Glycerine*, Cetearyl Glucoside, Cetearyl Alcohol, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Seed Extract, Xanthan Gum, may contain (+/-) Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499), Ultramarines (CI 77007)
MRP: 59 $ for 30g
Pros:
1. Very light weight and sits on skin like second skin.
2. Packaging and pump dispensor are nice and make it travel friendly.
3. Though the directions say 2 pumps..for me half a pump is enough for the whole face and neck.
4. It gives medium coverage and it can be buildable to heavy if you need so.
5. This is going to last long..as the qty is enough.
6. It is free from parabens.talc, palm oil and other chemicals…so does not harm skin and would never clog pores.
7. It blends like a dream with my Sigma F80.
8. The website and management is very nice…they help you select the exact shade and always reply instantly.
Cons:
1. It has only 5 shades..and mine is Medium Dark which is the second darkest..the 1st three being for paler and pinker undertones.
2. Difficult to find out the exact shade online.
3. Its expensive and the shipping cost is high too..but you do get quality.

I love mineral cosmetics. They are always so clean and light. this product is great, especially if it only takes you half a pump to cover your face and they recommend two pumps.. chemical makeups require like 4-5 pumps to get full coverage and you always send up looking blotchy,.
