After trying this foundation for a few days I am pleasantly surprised. It gives me good coverage and feels really comfortable on the skin all day, I tested this out during full days at work to really see what its worth. I have shade 020 Cameo which was a nice change as I normally have to get the lightest colour, and I could have but I wanted to warm up my complexion a little bit. I am so happy with my colour choice.  It has a "flawless" dewy finish and does actually lasts all day without oxidizing on me. I found there was no wear off or creasing which was a fantastic bonus. I love that the Better Skin has an SPF of 14 in it as I like having that little extra coverage during the day. It feels a little thick when you apply it but it blends and smooths out nicely. One pump covers my entire face and partly down my neck. I could build it up if I wanted to.

The bottle itself is well presented with a pump top, which I prefer, for easy amount control and hygiene. It's cute with its dark blue pump that matches the colour of the Better Skin label. You get a decent 30ml of product in the little glass bottle and you have a recommended 12 months from opening to use it.
