I live in an area with high humidity in the summer, and this foundation will work for you as long as you set it with powder. I combine this foundation with the Photogenic loose powder for a perfect, flawless finish that lasts all day.

Yes, it is a cream. However, it is not heavy or thick in any way. It feels like silk, soft and smooth. It dries fast, and it lasts all day.

Definitely don't use this with another foundation. This is the only foundation you will need. It provides full coverage, yet it's not too heavy or thick. I use it with Photogenic powder for a flawless finish.

Don't apply under foundation. Use by itself. I guess a dusting of powder over this wouldn't hurt, but I think that would just be too heavy and ultimately settle in wrinkles. I use alone, lightly wisp my blush on over, and done. Flawless.

Use foam wedges - the triangular kind. put a small amount of foundation on the wedge, and apply with very short strokes lightly to the skin. You can then use the clean surface of the wedge to smooth out any areas you may have applied too thick. Don't ever wet the wedge if you're looking for light coverage. Another trick: use the "blade" edge of the wedge to put a little extra foundation or concealer where your eye meets your nose to lighten dark circles discretely. You won't get a flawless look, but it will last longer & look more natural in Summer.

YES. The coverage is not very heavy, but it will even out blotches and red areas quite well. I use it on my bad-skin days just for that purpose.

Question
What is the closest color to natural buff?
Hi, I used to use a Lancome powder in a shade called natural buff. I tried to order it a few months back on Sephora's website, but it was out of stock. So, I had an email notification sent to me when it was in stock. Apparently, Lancome is no longer making this product. So, I am wondering what is closest to the product . This product looks like it is the closest, but I need to know which color to get. Thank you!

I have medium skin and I use bisque 1. The thing with this product is that it's not like liquid thats hard to blend. The way it goes on blends so nicely that you won't see makeup lines like other makeup.

I usually use a light foundation however, I found that Buff 4 is perfect for my skin tone. Buff 2 might be a better match for you.
Have fun!
