Summary
I tried this product and I think it not gives enough moisture to my skin, even the makeup artist used other benefit products on my skin. I felt, other products give more moisture and pamper the skin better. But it gives a different look, a very skiny and radiant skin look with full coverage. Just need to be used with the other Benefit products to get an excellent result and I was impressed in the end.

I have to say I was quite excited to try this foundation and after being matched up at the Benefit counter I was excited to see what everyone thought, however I noticed immediately that I could feel that I was wearing foundation, I hate being able to feel that I'm wearing make up, I like my face to feel as natural as possible. So after this initial disappointment I decided to let it go and just see how it lasted through the day. I noticed when I got home that my face looked slightly orange, it wasn't too noticeable which was good but I still felt a bit let down that it wasn't a perfect match (I've always struggled to find a really good foundation that matches my skin tone.
I think this foundation is ok during winter when you generally want a slightly heavier coverage but I couldn't wear it every day.

A little to heavy for my liking. Not the right match for my skin tone.

It's a nice enough foundation but it couldn't be worn everyday.

I love Benefit cosmetics, but this product really didn't do it for me.
I like a fuller coverage foundation and I found this too lightweight, and due to it being a lighter formula I used it really really fast.
The colour was also not the best match for me, I'm a sucker for people telling me that my skin shade matches perfectly, but under the harsh beauty counter lights it always looks perfect, the natural light showed it was far to dark and orangey , this was also the lightest shade available .

This has a nice, lightweight feel and gives good coverage. It's moisturising, so good for dry skin, and paraben free, so good for people who hate chemical preservaties. The pump is easy to use, and one pump covers your whole face.
Weakest points
I think I must have been sold the wrong colour, as this foundation makes me look pasty and slightly ill. I stopped using it as an all-over foundation and now only use it to blend dark circles round my eyes - it does this brilliantly!
Summary
There are so many terrific foundations out there that any new product has to be pretty special to go the distance. I'm not sure this one is good enough or different enough to set the heather on fire (as we say in Scotland!). However, it does make an excellent undereye concealer.
Maybe this really is magical stuff, if you get the colour right...
