Just realized I haven't published this review and now that I'm finally at home for Xmas I try to put on more posts while I can.
I have to say....I hate working! It sucks and now that it's end of year it's crazy! I'm busy every day and am left alone to do everything. Ok, almost everything. My collegue went to New York and there's nobody to fill in her place. So there's only 2 of us to do the work that used to be 4 people's job. >.< And the things I have to do now is new to me...
One of the few things that make me happy nowadays is a foundation that I claim to be my HG so far:

During summer it will be too light, but now it's perfect. Lightens a bit, but not too much.
Coverage is light to medium, you can build it up.
Gives a perfect glow. No shimmer, just that well hydrated look every dry skinned girl yearns for. However, after 5 hours that glow totally disappears, and my forehead gets oily too (after about 3 hours).
Handswatches: blended on the right side, around my knuckles

The tube holds 37 ml which is more than the average 30 ml of liquid foundation.
Retail price is $30.00
In spite of its cons I love the finish it gives, the ease of use, that it's moisturizing and safe from all those bad baaad chemicals.
