I was pleasantly surprised by how much I like the Dermablend Cover Creme Foundation. It is a very different kind of foundation than any I have used before but if I follow the directions carefully and rub a tiny bit of the cream against the back of my hand to soften it, it goes on my face so smoothly. I only use a bit during the day and it lasts even in the hot, sweaty days of summer. I touch it up again if I'm heading back out in the evening. It blends easily with fingers or a sponge and offers pretty good coverage. The Pale Ivory is very light but I'm pretty pale so it works ok. I add a bronzer during the summer. I've used it daily for about a month and have only used a tiny bit. I imagine this container will last at least six months, probably more. My only complaint is that the makeup does settle into my tiny wrinkles and makes them appear more pronounced.
