   Light/Medium is a good match for me (AAB/NC25). Light to medium coverage. Love that it has SPF but it’s a mix of mineral and chemical sunscreen. Creamy texture and easy to work with. Doesn’t settle into fine lines or dry patches. Feels somewhat moisturizing.

   Good light coverage, nice color in “Light” for light/light med skin. Not for super pale gals I think. But you never know. I have a darker light slight yellow under tone with a small amount of sun spots sometimes when I am not up on addressing those pesky side effects from hot Florida. I am 58 with oily occasional troubled skin, slightly sensitive and with ever slight minor wrinkles. I can’t say to its holding up into Florida high summer heat high 90s as it is fall/early winter weather now from 65-80s when I tried this out. Not as nice feeling as my fav Dr Jart beauty balm but not as bad as others. I have yet to find a BB or CC cream that don’t irritate or build up oil on my face after wearing all day with exception of Dr Jart BB cream. This has a few good Korean type ingredients – a nod to oriental healthy skin care in it. 30spf is wonderful bonus too! This Purlisse BB cream has really nice heavier medium coverage that I didn’t need to mix in a heavier foundation. Matte not too shinny like so many others. If you have normal to dry skin you would not need to use finishing powder, but dryer gals may have to use a moisturizer under this one. This BB cream feels ever so slightly tacky but with staying power. I used my long standing fav Laura Geller Baked Balance n Brighten Fair to set it, light – light dusting as I don’t want it to slip off my face. Made it feel dryer less tacky, just right. This is the only baked powder style “foundation” I’ve found that works on me to even out and finish without itching, emphasizing imperfections or clogging up my pores or increasing oil. It is slightly heavier then finishing powder so i have to use it with slight of hand to keep it light. I have never had it not work ever with any BB or CC cream. Using it with Purlisse Perfect Glow BB cream was no problem, worked out fine. If I ran out of Jart I would use this Purlisse BB cream at least in warm to cool weather. I used to use/mix Laura Geller’s All in one Skin Perfecting BB 3/4 and Take cover foundation 1/4 which was the perfect coverage and lightness. Since she discontinued Take Cover I tired mixing her other liquid foundations but nothing worked out. Then I tried quite a palethera of foundations with not so good results. Luckily I found Dr Jart from a monthly makeup sample service, made me ecstatically happy. Thankfully this Purlisse Perfect Glow BB cream is now a option for me. I recommend trying it, a reasonable safe bet for oily and or older skin.
