Vital Skin Foundation Stick - Atelier O.5

The redness around my nose has calmed down noticeably since I started using this, and it melts into my skin without any tugging. It evens things out just enough that I skip concealer on most days, and my face still feels moisturized by the end of the workday.

I was skeptical a stick could give my skin that "lit from within" look, but this glides on so smoothly and the antioxidants really help with my post-lunch dullness. A couple of swipes on my cheeks and forehead, blend with my fingers, and I'm out the door in under two minutes.

The redness around my nose has calmed down noticeably after two weeks of morning use, and it layers nicely over sunscreen without pilling. I do wish the shade range were wider, but the finish is genuinely skin-like rather than masky.
