It has a thicker-than-usual consistency (It is after all, marketed as an anti-aging product, therefore catering for more mature skin types), with a decent coverage. It is very satin-ish, and doesn’t end up ‘setting’. The color changes quite a bit from when its applied to some moments later. It has a nice smoothing feature, and definitely gives the skin a ‘boost’ of energy or radiance. It sort of makes me feel the skin got alive again, like if you had a facial. Since it never completely sets, and it smooths quite a lot, you see that you have foundation on (its not like a ‘disappear’ with your skin type of foundation), or maybe better put this way: It looks like you have done something positive to your skin. A bit of an airbrushed effect.

This foundation comes with a matching concealer, which I didn’t try.

Apparently there is listed in Nordstrom.com a shade called ‘porcelain blush’, which looks way lighter and more cool-toned. I am not sure if its an accurate representation, but my counter only had Ivoire as the lightest shade.
