My shade 128 = Y415 Almond

I would say this is a medium neutral shade.

My Thoughts

The first time I tried this on was from a MUFE event and my skin looked almost flawless and the girl didn't even applied a lot of this! I bought it recently since I am a bit lighter now and most of the foundations I have are in Tan (*which I have not been all year since I have been hiding from the sun!).
I wore it everyday since I got it and the coverage can be built up to full but I only do one layer of this and use my K-Beauty face brush (Etude House Face Brush) and that gives me a nice medium coverage. It evens out the redness and my acne scars on my cheeks but as I wear it out through the day, I see my skin starting to look shinier than I'm usually is. I used my ELF HD powder to touch-up but this two gives me a cakey makeup look which was not pretty!
After a week of wearing this everyday, I noticed my skin breaking out a bit as well so I'm guessing this isn't an everyday-wear type of makeup. If you do have dry skin, I suggest to hydrate your skin really well as this can cling on to your dry areas.
I love that this gave a nice coverage and a flawless look of my skin but I guess the formula was just too heavy that I started breaking out.

I returned this purchase because I was not looking for a foundation that I need for special occasions nor makes my skin shiny by end of day, and break me out by the end of the week after wearing it everyday! It's a great foundation but my skin did not like it and so I'm glad Sephora has a great return policy and I was able to return this after giving this a try.

I am still on the look out for my holy grail foundation and there are tons still to try out!
