I couldn't take a clear photo of my own jar of foundation... so...
I am sure most of my regular readers would know I adore the SKII Cellumination Essence -In Foundation from my previous post! I was really eager to try SKII's latest cream foundation as I do have high opinion of their foundation in general. I will compare both foundations here a little.
I have already heard about this foundation last year, from a Taiwanese variety show, and am surprised it took pretty long for the foundation to reach Singapore. I got this in February. Not sure if it was available since January though...
Anyway, this is the description of the product from the leaflet inside the box:
"This foundation contains concentrated SKII Pitera. It is rich in feel and spreads easily. A quick and radiant translucent finish, and keeps your skin moisturised even after removal. It protects skin against UV rays SPF20++ and is fragrance free. Skin moisturising ingredient (Galactomyces ferment filtrate)"

Blends in well when applied lightly
I must say I am totally pleased with this foundation, because it is able to control oil on my T-zone pretty well! I compared this with all my other foundations (Cellumination Foundation, Laneige Mystic Veil Foundation, Lancome Teint Miracle, Freshel W Cream UV, SkinFood Agave Cactus) and the new SKII wins without a doubt! Usually when I apply other foundations, I see shine in about 1 hour's time, and 3 hours later, the shine will be pretty unacceptable and I have to blot and touch up (because my nose area will start to look a little red). The new SKII is able to control the shine for about 3 hours, and after that I just need to blot every hour or so. It's not that I have really oily skin, but I like my face to be smooth and matte at all times. So, my conclusion is that this foundation is indeed moisturising, therefore able to control oil well!
I am a M.A.C NC20, and the color that blends in well to my skin color is 420 Clear Beige. I use the same color for the Cellumination range as well. Comparatively, the Cream version has a better coverage and I actually think it provides full coverage. However, I do think the Cellumination one gives my skin a more radiant finish as my face just seems to have this "glow from within" after application, which I don't see as much when I use the Cream one. For both foundations, I finish off with loose powder for that matte finish, but for those who prefer the dewy look, I think you could use the Cellumination one without loose powder. For the Cream one, I still recommend finishing off with powder, as the finish might be to the "oily" side if you don't =)
I use the spatula provided to scope the foundation out, and I prefer to apply with a sponge (as the texture is thicker - similar to Laneige Mystic Veil Foundation).
I highly recommend this foundation! I don't regret spending my SGD109 on this one!
