I was excited to try this as I love using more natural products. Seeing that this was 97.4 % natural I wanted it immediately. It also has a nice floral design packaging that I was attracted to.
This foundation has a very sheer coverage - almost like tinted moisturiser. It feels a bit oily but nothing over the top, so its nice to use in winter when my skin is dry. Buff is a good match for fair skin. The moment I started to apply it I noticed this horrible smell. It definitely smelled old - very much like old oil. It has that bitter old smell. It is odd because this line appeared on the shelves not more that 2 years ago. I have read reviews about it before and people really seemed to like the floral smell but it has obviously changed.
Unfortunately, I won't carry on using it because of the smell. I have written to Almay about it and will expect a replacement. I don't recommend it unless you open it before you buy it to make sure it still smells ok...
