This is hands down the best stick foundation I've ever used. I like it better than the BB or Kevyn Aucoin offers because it's a 'dry' stick. BB is heavy and a bit oily... and Aucoin's coverage is sometimey. But this stuff goes on heavy, stays put, and wears beautifully. I hear it's supposed to have some ingredients in it that are beneficial to the skin. No confirmation on that though...so don't hold me to it. But if that's true... all the better. Love this stuff.
