Give it time., March 19, 2008

I did not think this product worked the first 4 to 5 times I used it. I did not think it made a difference in the application of foundation or by itself. With that said, I didn’t like the thought of spending all that money and then not using a product so I continued to use it. It took about a week or two, but then when I put my foundation on without it on accident one day, I realized what a difference this product makes for me. I have EXTREMELY dry skin and while this product is not 100%, it does smooth my skin out and brighten it. I should also mention that I am very fair skinned. Overall, I have found the product to be useful and I have continued to buy it.

Love this stuff!, May 20, 2008

I don’t like the look of a lot of foundation and like the feel even less. I tried That Gal at the Benefit counter at the mall and fell for it. It’s very sheer and lightly pink. I use it all over my face but a little really goes a long way. It does smooth over pores and fine lines without being cakey. Oddly, whenever I first put it on it seems like nothing happened at all. But after a few moments I notice that my skin looks very even and does have a nice glow and light sheen without looking glossy. I use it over Oil of Olay spf 15 moisturizer, then apply Benetint to my cheeks followed by a light covering of Benefit’s Dr. Feelgood. I’m getting married soon so I’ve tried a lot of cosmetics lately trying to find the right one for my wedding day to make me look perky yet natural. This is it. I hope they never discontinue the product.

For your Sunday morning face, December 12, 2007

The product description is pretty promising, right? Well, how can a girl turn it down? So I slapped down my $27 and gave it a whirl. Results: I really did look brighter and happier after using, and didn’t feel like I had to wear any foundation/powder. Everything just looked smoother. This formula is super light and soaks right in, so there was no greasey yuck. It also lasted well throughout the day and I felt kept my tzone from shining up. I just felt pretty and au-natural, very “What? I just woke up this way…” The one drawback is that the tube is a bit small for the price, and the schmancy dispensing mechanism seems to dispense too much product at one time, thus wasting your precious valuables. This is what I like to put on on Sunday’s, cause it just feels so good and looks so clean and un-makeupy.
