  Pros

  Leaves a powdery finish. No darkening. Matched my skin tone perfectly. I absolutely hate sticky feelings when touching my face, but this one is just amazing - so soft and smooth. I recommend applying it with a makeup sponge rather than a brush for a flawless, skin-like finish. Even though I sweat a lot, it seemed to stay put well. While it's not waterproof, it doesn't come off easily - only a bit transfers when gently blotted with a tissue. It covers pores well without needing a separate pore-covering product. As someone who doesn't wear makeup often, I love how easy it is to pat on and go.

  Cons

  There's no cushion version available. I'd buy it immediately if there was one in cushion form! The glass bottle is heavy, making it inconvenient for touch-ups on the go. Since it's not a sun protection product, you need to apply sunscreen underneath. Use a non-white cast sunscreen to avoid a cakey look.

  Tip

  For an even better application, prep your skin with a suitable moisturizer first. I highly recommend using a makeup sponge over a brush. This matte and powdery product is especially great for oily and combination skin types rather than dry skin.

  Pros

  I bought Catrice because it's one of the few well-known brands that offer color cosmetics while being cruelty-free. The foundation applies so thinly that it feels like your skin can breathe. While it's not particularly high coverage, it's perfect for those who prefer a natural makeup look. Even when it fades, it just gradually transitions to a bare-faced look. There's no darkening effect either. Unless you apply too many layers, it doesn't cake up or emphasize dead skin cells. The brush that comes with it is quite good quality and works well with the foundation. It's definitely a great product to have in your makeup collection.

  Cons

  As I have combination dehydrated skin, it felt a bit dry on my cheeks. You might need to apply a solid base beforehand. Other than that, I didn't have any issues, but looking at the ingredients list, I was disappointed to see so many parabens. That's quite a letdown.

  Tip

  The brush that comes with it applies the foundation thinly and transparently. If you use a puff instead, it adheres better to the skin and provides more coverage.

  Pros

  For my oily skin, this is the best foundation I've used so far. It has strong staying power and doesn't darken! Being a matte product, it doesn't break down and lasts quite a long time without my makeup falling apart!

  Cons

  It's a bit too matte for winter use... If your skin becomes slightly dehydrated, it can look patchy. Also, being a matte product, it's disappointing that it's hard to control the amount when applying.

  Tip

  Applying with a brush first and then patting it in with your hands seems to increase its adherence to the skin!
