Price: $5.99 ( ) Packaging: The typical twist up packaging is practical, but honestly, nothing to write home about. ![]() Infused with Argan and Sunflower Seed oils for intense moisture and seamless bendability, the Photo Focus Stick Foundation perfects your complexion and boosts your confidence to have you looking and feeling great from sunup to sundown ( ).
