the reviews complaining about the pump are correct [SEP] i read the reviews about the pump not working and ordered anyway after being told the pump comes off i figured i could just open up the jar and dip a sponge or foundation brush in it so that would be no big deali underestimated how annoying it would be to take the pump off it comes apart in sections and i gave up halfway because i was going to be late for work if i stood around macgyvering it much longeri was able to get some product out and try it it is very thick and kind of dry i ended up mixing it with moisturizer in order to get the little bit i had to spread sufficientlythe color is good i am very very fair and the ivory is light enough and not yellowi will update my review after i use it for a week or so i suspect the consistency and the packaging may combine to bring this down a star or two
