Hi there; sorry if I missed it, but I didn't see it stated what kind of coverage this gives? I understand it's build-able, but HOW buildable is it? Does this have more of a sheer coverage after your first layer or more of a medium? Since it isn't mentioned specifically in the description either, does this found/serum combo NOT cover basic acne aka red bumps/acne spots on its own? I hope my questions make sense!! I've come to find a lot of found/serums off sheer to light coverage and don't do much for people with acne prone combo skin- but can't find much info on this one myself!! Tysm!!

I use NC35 in the Studio Fix Powder. Would I use the same number shade in this liquid powder foundation? I love the look of the full coverage powder, but I do have older skin and I'm thinking I need more hydration.

I am using NW35 in the Serum Powdered Foundation. Since I have lost my tan this is a little too dark right now. What color should I get for a full coverage foundation? It needs to still be a warm tone, nothing yellow.

Comments about NC16
I wanted to try this out since it was on sale, and unfortunately I'm super disappointed! I usually get the Studio Fix which I love. This one just does NOT want to stay on my skin (I have combination skin). It transfers everywhere and breaks apart on my face. It doesn't last all day and I find myself wiping my face throughout the day to fix the smudges and oil that gathers. :(
