Tried and tested: “At last a cream I love and I think it might actually be the best skin product I have ever used. I usually use a light beige tone in other products but the shade medium is perfect for me - it doesn’t turn orange and looks very natural whilst giving an even skin tone. Perfect on all counts.” - Lesley, Customer Review
