I believe I got the second shade of this whipped BB, if you have a fair warmer skin tone then the second shade is for you. It applies easily although the applicator is a bit different. you squeeze the white balloon bit of the handle to suck up product at first and then squeeze once you take it out to push the product out of the wandy tube. It is a fluffier cream and seems to hold up pretty well based on the times I've worn it. It also looks pretty natural and feels light which is probably due to the whipped type consistency. Definitely an interesting BB "cream" if this is what you're looking for.
