Happy Skin Second Skin Creme in Soft Beige

Hello guys!

Another product review from one of my favorite brand that offers skin-loving products. My first to try this Silicone Free Foundation, the Happy Skin Second Skin Creme in 01-Soft Beige at Php 1,199.00 per 30ml. 
Product Description:
This is a double-letter cream that has a skin-improving, color-adjusting tinge that mimics your actual skin, making you look like yourself, only waaay better. It instantly lends the skin a natural veil that smoothens the surface and a soft-focus powder that diffuses light and minimizes the appearance of pores. Plus, it improves skin quality with continued use. 

This silicone free foundation does not clog pores and is infused with world-famous Japanese Cherry Blossom extract and hyaluronic acid to plump up and smooth out skin. It has a lightweight formula that starts with a silky cream, and then dries into a beautiful, ultra-fine powder finish. It also provides protection with its healthy levels of SPF 20 PA++. Suitable for all skin types including very sensitive skin. It's amazingly gentle on the skin and can be removed with just a simple facial wash.
The packaging: a squeeze-type tube with a fine nozzle that delivers a pea-sized amount of product. 
 Ingredients list...
swatches... 

The SS creme comes in two shades: 01-Soft Beige (light) and 02-Natural Beige (medium). I got the lighter shade which I think is just perfect for my skin... 

How to use:
Squeeze out product then dab all over skin. Using the warmth of your fingertips, spread out evenly to conceal blemishes and discoloration. Can be used alone or paired with your favorite moisturizer.
(Left-Right) - - - Bare Face to Freshly Applied SS Creme to Blended SS Creme
Gives me an effortless beauty by loving my skin and making my makeup work for me! My current favorite foundation :) My skin looks dewy, glowing and healthy!

What I like about Happy Skin Second Skin Creme in Soft Beige?
It’s specifically formulated to complement Filipina skin tones
Has SPF 20 PA++
Lightweight formula
Has a runny consistency yet delivers a powder finish
Melted perfectly on my skin (feels like second skin)
Glides on my skin smoothly which makes it easy to apply
A little product goes a long way!
Gave me a natural, no-makeup makeup look
Gives medium coverage
Non-comedogenic so it’s safe for women with sensitive skin
Safe for pregnant women (used when I was pregnant and no allergic reactions)
Promises to improve skin quality with continued use; I guess it’s true! My skin became nicer, damp and smooth.
Great quality so definitely worth the price
Last for about 8 hours, does not cake nor fade even without retouch
Lesser sebum
Packaging is compact and travel-friendly
A local brand (Filipino brand)
I have to say that it’s affordable even though its price is Php 1,199.00 because of tons of benefits it gives to your skin + the quality
Locally available

What I don’t like about Happy Skin Second Skin Creme in Soft Beige?
Limited shades; but I don’t mind at all
No expiry date is printed on the box
It dries up faster once it comes out of the tube so you need to blend quickly

Will I repurchase?
Definitely yes!
