I use this product all the time and usually pay over $32.00 for it. So, when I saw it advertised for just over $7.00 I was really skeptical. After taking a close look, I realized it was the product I use and pay 4 times more for. These deals keep me checking out Amazon.com frequently. Don't know how you guys did that, but please, keep it up.

Great product... I have fair skin with a few freckles, this was light weight(shade 1)with just a touch of color that I was looking for!

This stuff is great, I rarely leave the house without it on. It gives just a hint of coverage, it's not greasy or oily, and it really brightens my skin nicely. I often brush a little powder over it if I'm going to the office or anytime when I want a more finished look. I've also got oily acne prone skin and haven't had any issues with breakouts. And...if you think it might be a bit pricey I've been using the same tube, generously applied since mid-January and there's still quite a bit left. It goes a long way and looks great the whole time!

This tinted moisturizer is a bit heavier than others I've tried (such as Philosophy's new one or Laura Mercier), which I think is a good thing. You actually feel like you're getting some coverage. I will say it is rather shiny when I first apply, but within about 15 minutes my skin (dry) absorbs some of the product, leaving me with a perfect glow. It's advertised as "illuminating," so you can only expect it to do what it says. If you only want a glow on your cheeks, I'd probably skip this product and just get a bronzer or cream blush. I love this product, and I even wore it on my wedding day. You can't beat Amazon's sale price, either! I subtracted one star because as you get to the bottom of the tube, the product separates a little bit. You really have to shake well, which is hard to do when there's only a little product left in the tube.

i bought this because of the great reviews and it turns out that it is more like a foundation than a moisturizer or a lotion. it's a little thicker than i wanted and it feels heavy on my face. i dont wear foundation, but i just wanted something with a little color that would be lightweight and not too hard on my pores. it does have a nice shimmer to it but it's just not what i thought it would be.

I love mixing this with my foundation for more hydration and illumination! I also layer this on my cheekbones, as a highlighter. Wearing this alone is a little too much for me, I need a pressed powder on my "T-zone", but it feels great on my skin. Light coverage.

And it has a bit of shimmer in it.
I am a bit of a makeup junkie and can't resist trying out different brands. I like the fact I can wear it and it not be so obvious that I'm wearing it and the light shimmer is a nice touch.
Also protects you from the sun--preserving your skin for the future.
Nice deal

ILLUMINATING"?? If by illuminating they mean you look like you have random bits of sparkle on your face, then sure! I think that it would be better if you mixed it in a little bit with your liquid foundation, otherwise it's way more than illuminating, it's spotlighting.

I used this straight and it had just about zero cover power. It DID leave my skin feeling supple though, not tight or greasy. (Greasy came later!) But in daylight it looked like I had sparse glitter fallout from eyeshadow all over my face. This isn't any kind of 'pearly' luminescent glow; it's a straight up superfine mica.

This might be nice on neck/chest but not on a face. Once I saw what my skin looked like in my rearview mirror...in broad, bright daylight, I didn't want to go anywhere but home and wash this stuff OFF!
