Physician's Formula Organic Wear CC Cream...Natural, But Any Good?

Finding natural foundation that works is REALLY hard!
Affordable Organic Foundation Physician's Formula CC Cream

First, most of them have so little coverage they really are just tinted moisturizers. NOT what I'm wanting.
Second, they often are glorified moisturizers with some color, and for girls like me with oil-slick skin, that just does NOT work.
Third, there aren't many available to access locally so you can try out the color on yourself. At my local Sephora, they only had Bare Minerals (I used to love it, but as I aged, it settled in lines way too much). At Ulta, they only had Juice Beauty (never had all the colors available to test!), and a few others that were runny, oily, or were just tinted moisturizers.
 
 
Plus, being from Rite Aid, if the color was wrong, I could return it because Rite Aid allows returns for that reason. On top of that, it was only $14.99. Score!
 
So, I picked some up and tried it out. Check out my video below to see the results for yourself:
 
Now, we all have our own desires for our foundations, so this may not work for you. But maybe, like me, you'll be happy with it. The one thing I don't like about it: it comes in a very limited color selection...Light and Light/Medium.(Yes, that's it!) 
With it being summer I really need something just a bit darker, so I've resorted to mixing my Light/Medium with another (non-natural, sadly) foundation that is too dark.
I think that when summer is long gone and my tan is too, I'll be able to sport Light/Medium very well.
I really like the way this CC Cream works on my oily skin, too. It's not necessarily mattifying, but it seems to ALMOST be. I don't even have to wear powder except under my eyes and on my forehead.
