  Pros

  I tried the sky blue Serenity and then this one, and I have to say the texture and staying power of Serenity are better. My body is fair, but my face suffers from chronic redness, making it look dark and reddish. I can't use regular foundation; I need to brighten my face to match my body tone first. Just using a light foundation alone means I'd have to cake it on to cover the reddish tone. I've found that color correcting to even out my skin tone first, then applying a base works best without looking heavy. Anyway, Serenity definitely gives a whiter tone-up effect. This one does brighten quite a bit, but being greenish, it might not give a pretty tone on its own unless you have severe redness. For average skin, it's not ideal for solo use. That said, it's not green enough for spot correcting or significant color correction. So, for people like me with widespread severe redness, it's best used all over, with a more intense corrector on problem areas like cheeks. If you just want to cover redness, you might be better off using a yellow/ivory-toned foundation with good coverage.

  Cons

  The texture is a bit runny and tends to separate. It's not quite dewy, but not matte either - you might be disappointed if you compare it to Serenity. It feels somewhat in-between.

  Tip

  I've tried all kinds of tools for applying primers and base makeup, but hands are the best. Using a sponge tends to absorb too much product.
