My Opinion:

This is a low coverage bb cream, that will even out your skin tone, but won't cover much. I think this would be suitable for someone will dull skin, because it seems to be adding some glow into my skin.

However, since this only comes in one shade, it might be really hard to color match. In terms of MAC I'm about NC25 now, and this seems to run a bit light on me, so I need to go over it with a powder everytime I use it.

My Opinion;
My skin is really oily during the summer, and I've got humungous pores... I've been using this product consecutively for 3 weeks and I've concluded the following:
  1. there is a slight improvement in my oily issues, but I think I need something stronger...
  2. did not notice any improvements in my pore size....
  3. will not buy this again.
