I have been using this product the last 11 years ! So gentle on the face, flawless everytime but disappointed the Almond colour has been discontinued. Which colour do you recommended I repurchase ? I also have the Vanilla Cream but find it’s abit pink based as the Almond was more yellow based. I would mix the two in Winter when I’m lighter and just the Almond in Summer Thank you ☺️

Thank you for sharing your loyalty and positive experience with our product over the past 11 years. We appreciate your feedback regarding the Almond shade. While Almond has been discontinued, we recommend trying Cream Beige, which offers a neutral tone. You might also consider applying a bronzer over it to achieve your perfect shade, especially during the summer months. We hope this helps you continue to enjoy the flawless finish you love. Thank you for your continued support.
Wonderful coverage and yet feels so light on skin
5 out of 5 star rating.
A long favourite of mine. Covers all minor redness and blemishes on the face. Feels like you are not wearing any foundation when you have it on. So light so my skin does not feel clogged.
