I do not notice a top holding of makeup complexion with that basis, but somehow all the ones I've experienced I was never satisfied with this side. She still has a blurred effect on pores, but I think if there are really those dilated the effect will not be surprising either ... anyway I like the fact that she "softened" the skin allowing to better implement the foundation or other products ... the price remains high but the amount is reasonable knowing that it takes little product for every application ... delivery is fast enough (time-2 weeks surroundings, from America.)
