Rimmel Wake Me Up. This is the first foundation that I have bought and then repurchased because I like it so much. I use 'True Ivory'. A lot of people don't like it because of the shimmer but that's part of the reason I like it. I am not a fan of real matte foundations, just because my face is so dry so I like to have my skin appear to 'glow'. This foundation does that very well and at the moment it is the only foundation that I have found that doesn't make my skin dry out even more.
As a base I am currently using Revlon's Photoready Primer. To be honest, I can't say I am a huge fan of it, apart from the fact that it does help blur out some of my pores, especially around my nose area (which is where I use it) but it is very drying. I am on the lookout for a new primer!
The pump is fantastic. I hate squirty bottles of foundation, they become so messy and they are a nuisance. The bottle is glass, so feels nice to hold in the hand, not sure on the Orange, but I guess that's because I am not a fan of the colour in general.
The consistency is the foundation is quite nice. I don't have to use loads to spread over my skin, about the size of two peas. It gives light to medium coverage, which is perfect for me. So, here come the dreadful photos!

I wish we had this rimmel product here in Canada. I've always wanted to try it
