There is no other foundation to compare.....I used to wear the old version
I had used the old version for years and had a flawless complexion all day. I was so heartbroken when the product was discontinued. When I initially tried to order the this version, I was sent 2 primers, instead of one primer and one GT Pro. For some reason, I tried a few other really popular premium brands that are out now. My daughter is a makeup artist and beauty advisor at Sephora and she really helped me test so many of the newer brands and the tried and true. There is no comparison to Jane Iredale. This product (even when I have omitted my primer) lays better, stays better than any of the brands I tried. A little of this product goes a long way. As for the color, I was a little confused between colors. I had read from other reviews that if you wore the previous version, then to go down lighter a shade. So, I picked up GT4. I was using BB5. I am very pleased with my color choice.

The "air pump".
I usually don't write bad reviews; I focus on good ones. But in this case, I need to let people know, as well as the makers of Jane Iredale, that I had been using Jane Iredale foundation for many years. I loved it!! And I still love the actual foundation. But when they changed the package, they put a short stem pump in it instead of it being a squeeze tube. I have tried 3 different times, with 3 entirely different orders, thinking that maybe I just got a bad pump. They even replaced pumps when I said they didn't work. But the new pumps didn't work. My last of the foundation is coming to an end and it has been a total mess from day one as I had to remove the pump / top and just leave the cap loose and the mess has gotten everywhere. If Jane Iredale ever goes back to a squeeze tube or better packaging, I will be back. Until then, I am sorry that I need to find foundation and packaging that actually works.

Great makeup
I love the coverage and texture of this fantastic makeup. This my second order of the revised formula…with my first order I had to adjust my finger pumping pressure so as not to pump out such a large amount…which I did at first…wasting a lot of makeup. Once I adjusted for the right amount of flow, the make up comes out perfectly and goes on so smoothly with such beautiful coverage! I love that this product offers not only great coverage and flawless texture, it is actually good for your skin!

Formulation and packaging are awful
I have been a Jane Iredale groupie for almost 13 years now, LOVE the yellow base of the BB creams and loved how breathable it's been and how well it's been on my sensitive skin. Unfortunately, huge changes with the formula change, the product cakes up, it's creasy and doesn't blend well anymore. The pump on the tube stops pumping after the first few tries (I've had the same issue with 3 tubes). I hate that I have to look for a new brand, but I don't think this makeup is worth the cost anymore.

Full coverage with least amount of product
I've been a Licensed Medical Aesthetician for 12 years and I've been using and recommending this product for about as long. I'm not someone who particularly has brand loyalty unless they've completely won me over through and through (fingers crossed 🤞🏻 for an endorsement deal 😉 LoL). That being said, I won't say Jane Iredale is one of them but I do love a couple of their products. This product really only uses 2 or 3 drops at a time (for your full face) along with a regular, tinted moisturizer, or my favorite a shimmering lotion or sermon - mix together with fingertips or a spatula on the back of your hand - then apply with a moist makeup sponge or a dense foundation brush. Beautiful coverage. You can customize based on skin type (dry, oily, combo) by what you mix with it.

Miss older formula
I purchased this in GT1 and GT3–my previous color was BB3 with BB1 as a highlighter.First off, GT3 is warmer and darker than BB3 was. I suggest going lighter if you’re game for this product. Otherwise still a very full coverage color correcting formulation; however, unlike the previous formula which seemingly offered better hydration, this new product sucked the moisture right out of my face…I have Sahara-dry skin to be clear, and Jane Iredale used to be my go-to. I personally prefer light-to-medium (buildable) coverage, and unless you mix your JI primer and BB cream together then apply it, this foundation is FULL-full coverage.But I don’t recall it being so drying. I believe (don’t quote me on this) it moved up 10 SPF in its formula, and that may be what’s causing it to look and feel chalky on my face; but the previous formulation was so complimentary to me, yet this one isn’t.For some background: I’m Caucasian, 35, and had a hysterectomy with ovarian failure at 29. My hair is 80% white and gray, but my skin (outside of its dryness) looks like a sun-avoiding 30-year-old’s. With all that context, I have very slight creasing when I smile big around my eyes, and very slight expression lines with movement. No plastic surgery or injections of any kind.My point in sharing all that is: I look exponentially older with this makeup… the previous formula didn’t age me at all, but this one sticks in and exaggerates fine lines leaving lines of makeup wherever you smile or move your face.Overall, I’m disappointed that the formula was changed. I get the packaging update, but why change something that was working?? I guess it maybe wasn’t for everyone…My final thoughts: Avoid if you have dry skin and/or you’re over 35; or if you simply don’t want to look older than what you are.I understand some people would prefer fuller coverage to skin-like texture, but as someone who wears foundation strictly to color-correct redness from rosacea and a mast cell condition, this product is too heavy, cakey; and instead of oxidizing on the skin, it becomes chalky as the day wears on.(To note, the products I used beneath it were: Rosewater to wipe face off / tone in the AM; Avène Antirougeurs Fort cream (redness-reducing), Avène Tolerance Emulsion Cream; oil mixture of 40% carrot seed oil, 40% raspberry seed oil, 10% evening primrose oil, 10% vegetable glycerin; Good Molecules Priming Moisturizing. Then mixed 50/50 JI Brightening Primer (the Illuminating one broke me out, sadly) and GT3, and used GT1 as a highlighter lightly down the center of my face.)

New pump dispenser does NOT
The new container for the same product is terrible! The pump dispenser stays in the down position; it has to be manually pulled back up. When pulling it back up, the contents spills everywhere & stains everything! Please use previous squeeze container again! I will not buy this product again until pump action top is no longer used!!!
