Does this work like foundation?

In my opinion, it does, but I’d say it’s more a light-medium coverage if using one application, but you can build/layer the coverage. I also apply it with a sponge, I think if you use your fingers it tends to be a slightly heavier application. The brands “3D skin flex” feature claims it won’t settle into wrinkles/fine lines is false, that’s just a hype advert tactic. I have tried MANY foundation brands, and they ALL settle into wrinkles/fine lines.

They make this same product in a non-illuminating option, which is the kind I’ve used, and I do like it. However, I find in the non-illuminating option the ‘fair light’ color is darker on the skin than it appears to be when in the tube. If I try the lighter than ‘fair light’ shades, they’re too light for my complexion so I either deal with the ‘fair light’ color (which I manage by making my application as sheer as possible) or start mixing shades to get the perfect one or just not use the brand. All said though I think it’s a good foundation, and while I’ve tried many different foundation brands, this brand is one I always come back to. It’s SPF is a solid plus for me since I am so fair skinned.
