In their words

I bought this, along with the Gleam + Glow SPF 50, and the MD Advanced Hydration Crème (Night), and LOVE all three. But, back to the Mineral Crème SPF 50. The first thing I noticed is how GOOD it feels when applied. It doesn't feel greasy and there's no white cast (as long as you massage it in well). It also has a slight scent to it (which may just be the ingredients), but I find it to be nice.

I really hated this product. It was thick, heavy, and left a white-cast on my face (making me look like I was wearing a mask). I was incredibly oily after applying this foundation, and my makeup really didn't last at all because of it. It also had a shimmer to it, which accentuated all of the texture in my face. I would not at all recommend this product.
