The color seems pretty too
Cons- If your skin condition is even slightly off, it really shows - The staying power is poor... The adherence isn't great, so in these mask-wearing times, it all rubs off on your mask - As you use the container, the foundation gets pushed around and becomes messy - It seems to emphasize dead skin cells quite badly

Compared to the subtle glow of the Banila Co Glow Fit, this has a more intense, inner-lit kind of glow. I'm not sure how to describe it, but it's just beautiful. The size is also quite compact, so it's easy to carry around in a pocket or pouch. But you'll need to use the right tools with it... I can't fully recommend it due to the transfer issue. If that could be resolved, like when wearing a mask, this would be my go-to winter base. But the thought of having to find a new holy grail next winter makes me a bit sad...
ConsIf only I didn't have to wear a mask, that would be the biggest regret. Being a stick formula, it does tend to apply quite thickly. If I just swipe it on, it ends up really caking and transferring when I wear a mask. The transfer is just inevitable...all the photos I took with a mask on looked patchy. After just lightly blotting with my fingers, the initial glow and skin-like finish disappears. It's just gone (the mask is the ultimate villain here). The longevity doesn't seem exceptional, but it's not terribly disappointing either. Just have to be careful not to drop it - you can see my compact is a bit dented. Some other brands have built-in brushes with their stick foundations, but this one doesn't have that feature.
TipYou're absolutely right, using a setting powder or spray is essential to minimize transfer with this product. The ultimate tip would be to just not wear a mask at all... but by the time the pandemic is over, the expiration date on this will likely have passed already. Holika Holika should really come out with a reformulated version of this! I'd love to be able to enjoy the beautiful glow without the mask-related issues.
