This moisturiser is light wearing, absorbed quickly into the skin and what makes this even better is that it is tinted. For my skin tone the Lighter Skin was a good match in that it made my skin look naturally more tanned. However if you have fair skin then this colour will be too dark. But if you use this sparingly then you should be able to blend it in nicely and create a more natural look. The moisturiser is mattifying and oil free which means is wears well on your skin and makes it a pleasure to use. I hate using greasy heavy creams on my face. When using this moisturiser I find that I don't need to use any base or powder as the finish is good enough to create the appearance of an even complexion. The range is specifically aimed at people who battle with blackheads and spots, which I fortunately do not really battle with, so I can't comment on how effective it is in that regard. But the cream moisturises very well and leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth.
