It will just leave a unnatural and cakey finish. In terms of application, I find my Tarte Airbrush Finish Bamboo Foundation Brush worked perfectly! I love this foundation brush and I use it for all my foundations! I also find a damped Beauty Blender (the original pink one) also works nicely with this product! I just don't recommend you use a Duo Fiber brush! It's hard to work with this foundation in stippling motion.

However, if you have oily skin, you will get oily, even if you use a primer or a setting spray/powder! It may not be worth it for you! If you have dry skin, this foundation won't work for you either! Even if you apply a moisturizer, it will still grab onto your skin and it'll make you feel dry. Therefore, my recommendations are if you have combination skin, this would be a nice foundation for you. There was even this day that I had this foundation on for 16 hours and it still lasted on my face throughout the day (just my t zone and forehead I had to touch ups like usual)! I'm just really amazed that it doesn't budge! Whether you're 5 or 16 hours in with this foundation, it will stay on your face! Normally, even if I set my face with powder and setting spray, within 8-9 hours, my other foundations starts to move around a little.
I just had to powder my t-zone and forehead, but it lasted throughout my shift, even if I was running around everywhere! There were several times that I had this foundation on for more than 10 hours and I had to do touch ups or else I looked like an oily mess! However, the foundation still lasted on my skin pretty well! It didn't fade away or looked like it was melting off my face. It felt really dry (I never used a foundation before that made me feel dry), so I can't imagine how this would feel on someone that has dry skin! On shifts that I worked 5 hours, I needed minimal touch ups. When I first applied it, I felt like the foundation just grabbed onto my skin. I wore this foundation to work several times. What the foundation looks on me (no flash/no edits) Also, this foundation oxidizes a bit! After a few minutes, it looked slightly darker, but it wasn't a huge difference!

It feels so light on the skin, but has that medium to full coverage! It's not as thick as the Kat Von D lock it tattoo foundation, but the coverage is similar! You need very little of this product to cover your whole face! It also doesn't look cakey, which is something I really like! It has a satin finish, which looks natural! It also doesn't budge at all and it's actually waterproof! You can sweat and cry all you want, but this foundation will not move around! Also, it doesn't transfer onto your clothes, which is something I really like! However, even though it doesn't budge, you'll still get oily! I basically have combination skin (more on the oily side) and I still get oily like I normally do. I played with this foundation for over a month now.
