So this is what the foundation on its own looks like on me (never posted a no makeup picture on tinternet in all my days! This is pretty scary!)
I found it to be a little too dark even though I got it in 120 classic ivory it was actually very dark for what you'd expect ivory to be but I just blended it quite a way down my neck and it wasn't too bad.
It's got a really lovely feel to it, I used my hands to apply my foundation today cos my sponge was dirty and I wanted to make sure I wasn't getting my other foundation involved so I could see the proper results (and couldn't be arsed to wash my sponge). I also find that my foundation looks darker when I apply it with a sponge so it's probably a good thing I didn't in this case.
So yeah, it feels lovely and has a really nice radiant finish to it (slightly dewy, but not greasy at all IMO).
If it wasn't for the colour matching problem I'd say it'd be perfect.
It's not particularly full coverage but I prefer that, my skins very dull and my pores are a bit blocked and bumpy and I find that a very full coverage foundation can make that worse.

This is after the concealer. As you can see its very light in comparison to the foundation which I think is great for under the eye. I would say though that if you have very bad breakouts, covering your spots with this would possibly show them up more. Unless you were using a concealer just as light of course.
The concealer covers pretty well though as you can see from the last pic, my eyes have definitely perked up!

And this is after the powder!
I really, really like this powder. Up until now I've been using cheaper powders such as collection 2000 or Rimmel thinking that it wasn't that important, but after using this I'll definitely be trying out some different ones!
Often after my powder I feel like my face looks cakey and I have to be careful to use it sparingly but I found I could pile this one on without worrying about that.
It has a nice finish and my skin feels lovely.
I've only just applied them all so I don't know about their staying power yet, but I'll update you at the end of the day!

Forgot to update that by the end of the day I was ridiculously shiny. I think it's mainly the powder, it has a bit of a sheen to it. It all stays on well, just goes shiny :(

I think you look great with it on, but for me, after 30-45 minutes, it's awful. I don't think this is a foundation is good. I was very disappointed. I haven't tried the concealer or powder, I might give it a try!

Looks good on you but for me fit me was a disaster it made me look cakey and very shiny

I really like it when it first goes on but yeah, very shiny after its been on a while. I've given up on it. Still using the powder for my cheeks but a more matte one on my t zone. The concealers fine too, still using that but had to go back to a different foundation. Feeling much less shiny today!
