General Comments

I bought Boots No7 Intelligent Colour Foundation as a trial, really - I didn't think I could go wrong with No7 as generally the quality of their products is good. The limited range of shades meant I chose 'medium', which I thought was a safe option as my skin is neither pale nor dark. It was only a couple of days later when my friend asked me if I was wearing fake tan, and if I was, should I not think about applying slightly less, that I studied my skin in the mirror and realised that I did indeed look orange. NOT a good look. I decided that I must have been putting too much on, so the next day I applied the tiniest, most miniscule amount of the product. It was only when I caught sight of my face in the mirror in a clothes shop that I discovered that my spots and blemishes that I'd worked so hard to cover where extremely obvious - it looked as if I was wearing no make up whatsoever. I was not happy! In conclusion, this product is one of the worst I have tried. For the price I paid, it was definitely not worth it!
