Boots No7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

Hi, does anyone use this and is it good? Why does it differ from normal foundations? I have noticed it has a less SPF than the others.

    I used to use it and it was great, blended lovely and was a great colour for me.

    I'd recommend it
  • I use it and like it. The main thing I find is that as hotchick says it blends onto my face really easily - I'm not great at the whole application thing and this is a dream to use. Also like the colour - I'm fair skinned and it doesn't look too fake. Seems to stay put reasonably well too. And is almost always on 3-4-2 or with £5 off voucher.

    I use this but mainly in the summer because a) I find it quite lightweight and b) if my skin changes colour coz of a tan, it works with it.

    I would recommend. :T

    Hi thanks for your replies, is it more like a tinted moisturiser? I was thinking the same thing about in the summer and working with a tan, how does it differ from the tinted moisturiser?

    it's defo a foundation not a tinted moisteriser.

    Go into boots and test one
  • i have to confess until lately it's really been my wintertime foundation rather than summertime, I don't know why but sometimes it looks a bit overdone to me in summer. But then I'm the type of person who likes an excuse to go au naturel :)

    well worth trying as hotchick says
  • I've got a little left to use up. I am fair skinned and it looks tiny bit dark so I tend to use it more in the summer.
    Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend...
