Like the name suggests, its a high coverage demi-matte foundation with serious lasting power. It is aimed at oily skin but works fine with my dry, sensitive skin. Usually for day use I draw a few dots on my face and blend out with a buffing brush dampened with either Mac fix + or some light day cream. As of a night, I apply the stick directly to my brush an blend out until its full coverage. I have two full sticks as well as a palette or two of this foundation so I can always match my colour and at less than $50 its much more affordable than others iv tried.
Here are a few swatches:
Blended with Max Fix+ & Translucent powder
Swatches (Left to right)

I'll use MAC shades to compare as I think they are the most well known.
NC15 - FOB
NC25 - OB
NC30 - GO1
NC35 - GO2
NC37 - GO3 (not shown)
NC40 - GO4 (darkest shown
NW & ivory I use under my eyes or as a highlight, if you find yourself too pale for NC15 foundations these colours will be perfect.
