Barry M Foundation Creme - anyone else tried it?

Picked it up on a whim yesterday while in superdrug looking for a budget day cream (which I found, for £2.99, my my it was a successful day :) ).

Wasn't expecting much from it, as it was only about £6 and not exactly a well-known raved-about product, but budget dictates that I couldn't buy the Revlon PhotoReady I wanted to buy Sad

But I am so glad I got this! It's the closest match for my skin tone I've ever found, and works really well on my dry, sensitive skin - goes on evenly, doesn't emphasise dry patches, medium coverage but looks natural. Also covers acne scarring quite well, only needed a touch of extra concealer on newer scars and current blemishes.

Have had a quick google search and can't find many other opinions on it. Has anyone else here tried it?

Very surprised at this from Barry M, as I'd always associated them with colourful nail polishes and bright lip/eye colours, not somewhere I'd ever look for any of my cosmetics, let alone foundation! Grin

Just an update, it lasted all day without going dry or patchy and without oxidising. I think I'm in foundation heaven Grin

Although, I am very puzzled about why they do a white shade. Surely people don't put a layer of pure white foundation on their face, do they? Or am I having a blonde day moment and missing something really obvious?
