Confirm the specific shade and SPF information on the selected listing if these affect your choice.

Customer feedback presents this as a potentially useful everyday foundation, with reports of buildable coverage that does not look cakey, a lightweight feel and lasting wear. However, shade matching and suitability across skin types vary, and some customers describe a watery consistency or say it leaves their skin dry and flaky. Those reports matter when choosing the listed medium-coverage formula, especially if shade accuracy or a comfortable finish is a priority. The aggregate rating is generally favourable, but it does not establish how the product will perform for an individual.
Positive themes
- Customers describe the coverage as buildable and say it does not look cakey.
- Some customers report a lightweight feel and long-lasting wear.
Negative themes
- Some customers describe the consistency as very watery.
- Some customers report that it makes their skin look dry or flaky.
Mixed feedback
- Customers differ on the shade match, with some finding it suitable and others saying it is too dark.
- Feedback varies on how well it suits different skin types, with reports of both smooth-looking and dry or flaky results.
Frequently asked questions
What coverage and finish are listed?
The details list medium coverage and a semi-matte finish. Other product copy describes the coverage as natural and buildable, while one highlight calls it full coverage, so coverage wording is inconsistent.
What shade is this foundation?
The title identifies 8W Golden Cappuccino, while the details spell it "8.W Golden Cappucino". Customer feedback on colour matching is mixed, including reports that the shade can be too dark for some.
What SPF does it have?
The title and product contents state SPF 16, but the details field lists "17 Sun Protection Factor (SPF)". The supplied listing does not resolve this discrepancy.
How is it applied?
The supplied directions recommend starting at the T-zone and blending outwards in a circular or rolling motion. Another instruction says to shake well before use.
