Silk Naturals HD cream stick foundation | Review & swatches

Omg! I'm really loving this foundation! I saw just a few videos of this brand on YouTube and kind of guessed my shades and just took a chance and ordered them.  Usually I try to refrain from ordering from the US because of the taxes in the UK but ordered anyway.

I wasn't impressed as I totally emptied their healthy mix foundation.  Then in the rush of an early morning, getting ready in a half lit room due to my baby still sleeping, I picked up this tube thinking it was my BareMinerals Complexion Rescue (the tube looks so similar - in the dark anyway!) and slapped it on my face, only realising why is my face so matte -
