It has a thick and creamy formular and applies better when it's a little bit more melted with your skins heat. I recommend to leave it on your face for a while (e.x. putting many spots of the base on your face) before rubbing it all over your face. Because it has a green tone it is perfect for red blemished skin! It doesn't remove all of the redness in your face but it helps a lot by reducing the redness! For that reason it perhaps can look pale on your skin so you don't need to use a lot, please be aware of that!
