These cream is heavy, so much so that it comes with a small spatula for scraping it out of the jar. However, this strong consistency is good, because it does cover imperfections and it helps to match different skin tones, and once is applied, it doesnt look pasty. The cream must be kneaded between our fingers before applying it to our face, and it does go over it smoothly, and once its dry, it lasts all day long. I suggest finishing with a Dermablend powder of a similar shade for a flawless look.
