Updated -- It does work but has a strong odor and an edge that is a little sharp for using on the face
I got this yesterday and tried it this am. It came well packaged. In an a outer envelope then a nicer bubble wrap envelop. It has a little ziploc plastic case you can keep it in if you like. It is very silicon feeling texture and a little squishy. It reminds me of mini flatten silicone fake boob. Honestly that's what I initially thought of when i pulled it out and started touching it. It has a edge to it I am not crazy about where its sealed. So you will have to be careful around your eyes. I don't have the OG product this is based on so I can't compare it to that. But it does take very little makeup and it is very very easy to clean. Im not crazy about the finish it leaves on your face its seems a little streaky. I used my toothbrush foundation brush because I like the finish it gives over top of it. I do like it but I don't love it. And I would take away another half star and make it 3.5 if I could because it stinks. It has a terrible smell I'm leaving the storage pouch it comes with open as I'm hoping the product smell will fade in time. But it is really really smelly almost to the point where I wasn't going to use it. If you have a sensitivity to smells you will not like this.<br /><br />Update 11-6-2017<br />So I ended up placing it next to my kitchen sink (no pouch) for about a month a few times a week I would wash it with warm soap and water. After about a month only if I held it directly under my nose would I get that chemical smell. I don't know if it was from the pouch it came in or the actual product. But it does fade over time. Now there is zero smell. I still don't use this right next to my eyes because to me the edges seem a bit sharp. How i use this product is to actually place the foundation on my face then I use one of those toothbrush style face brushes to distribute it evenly across my face. So my brush doesn't get as gunked up as quickly with product and I don't have to get foundation on my fingers either. It saves the amount of foundation I use. My foundation lasts probably twice as long now as it did before.
