I use a lotion/tan color, 2 drops w/1-2 drops of this foundation and found it's working beyond my expectations. The blend is creamy and stays on, with just foundation my face/skin appeared chalk like and I really didn't like that at all. I'd like to think I found an alternative that actually works for me. Best of luck :)
Its smooth and creamy and stay well on my face and I work a job where i walk almost 5miles a day and i swear and it doesn't come off even when i dab my face with a towel.
