My New and Favorite "Foundation"- a review

I use shade 06-Deep Beige

About two weeks ago I went to Sephora on the hunt for a foundation or something along the lines of that.  I told a stores associate the kind of coverage I wanted (light to medium-- I want an even complexion) and my skin type (dry-- and oily on some parts of my face.)  She used the Color IQ 

 device on me-- I was pretty excited as it was my first time.  After the device came up with my results, we limited the options by coverage and skin type.  One of the last options was Big Easy by Benefit Cosmetics.  I was hesitant to buy this at first because I have not used Benefit products in some time.  The sales associate told me that this was a great product because this product turned into a powder and it also already had a primer.  I asked if I could apply this product with my fingers instead of a brush (I don't like to use brushes-- I feel that it takes too much time-- she said absolutely!  So I was sold and decided to take Big Easy home with me.

After using it for two weeks I can say that I absolutely love it.

• Great coverage--my skin tone is more even now.
• It covers blemishes.
• Stays all day
• Does not dry out my face
• Matte skin -- no traces of oil
• I love that it turns into a powder-- I get to skip a step in my routine because of this!

I apply this with my fingers and I think it looks better than if I were to use a brush.  However, you have to spread this product quickly so that it does not streak.  The woman who helped me at Sephora told me to apply moisturizer before applying this product.  This is because I have dry skin, and if my skin is not moisturized I will risk it caking up.

I highly recommend this product.
