After trying numerous tinted moisturizers and foundations I think this is finally the ONE! Have had a lot of difficulty with shades (I find the medium works great especially during the summer for Italian complexion), in the past they have always seemed too beige and pasty for a darker complexion. Also love the coverage without being heavy and phony looking, I have rosacea and this product really worked well and covered my ruddiness and broken capillaries, on a final note the coverage was heavy enough to really improve texture but light enough that it did not settle into fine lines and look cakey or greasy after a couple of hours. LOVE it!!
