This is my favorite BB cream I have tried so far. It is very lightweight but covers imperfections on the skin well. It comes in a 1 oz container and is available in several shades (I use 812 Light). When you squeeze it out of the bottle, the cream is white with little black specks in it (I know that sounds weird) but once you rub it into your skin it turns flesh colored. Only a small amount is needed to cover the entire face to achieve a natural look. I find that applying too much turns your face an orange color. I apply about a dime size amount onto my index and middle fingers and rub them together with the same fingers on the other hand, then I dot my forehead, both cheeks, chin, and nose, and rub it into my skin, blending it into my hair line and down into my neck. The key here is to blend very well. In my experience it does a great job at filling in my pores and helps camouflage imperfections, especially redness. I usually use this cream as a primer under my mineral foundation but it is also great for the days when I don't want to wear a full face of makeup. I am on my second bottle. -

I love this stuff! This is my go to when my skin is looking dull. After using it, my skin instantly feels firmer, smoother, and more even toned. I stumbled across it looking for something to help with my post-acne icepick scars and hyperpigmentation. I was getting desperate as i couldn't afford any of the treatment options available at the dermatologist's office. Their website made it sound great so i caved in and paid the $100 and gave it a try. I started out using it 3 times a week as recommended but soon realized that it was too harsh on my skin and reduced application to once a week, which is what i currently do and it works much better. I immediately saw an improvement in my skin and after a few weeks i did notice an improvement in my indented acne scars; my skin is much more even and all the same color. It also works great for clearing up acne and the exfoliating beads help reduce the size of existing pimples. I've been using this at home microdermabrasion for over a year and i think it is definitely worth every penny-for the cost of one salon treatment, you can get treatments for several months in the comfort of your own home. It not only exfoliates your skin, but also has effective skin ingredients to repair your skin in the process. I currently cannot see any of my ugly indented scars that were so bad before and all of my acne is gone. My confidence is back and i am one happy customer! -

This cleanser is okay as a makeup remover. I like that it is a foam cleanser which I prefer to other types of cleansers because I feel they get my skin cleaner and removes makeup easier. It feels really good on my skin and isn't very drying. It makes my skin feel soft after using it and does a pretty good job of removing my face make up. What I don't like is that its not very effective at removing eye makeup. I am finishing up the bottle as to not waste the product and my money but I will not be repurchasing it. I think that there are products out there that could do a much better job. -

This cream has truly been a miracle for my acne. I have been suffering from acne for years, since I was in middle school and have literally tried just about everything. Nothing has worked quite as well as this product. Although a bit pricey (for my budget anyway, this website says its $25 but it sells for $40 in my area) and hard to track down (only sold in certain stores, around me only at CVS and at a Walgreens several towns away), I completely think it is worth it. When I did manage to track a bottle and tried it, I couldn't believe my eyes..my acne started disappearing within a few days! It also seems to be doing wonders for the hyperpigmentation I was left with after the zits disappeared. The cream feels great on the skin and makes my skin feel very soft and smooth. It has a very effective ingredient in it that has been proven to reduce acne-benzoyl peroxide and in a higher dose than most creams (5.5%) but most importantly it doesn't dry out my skin, as a lot of acne medicine is known to do. This is definitely a staple in my skincare routine. The amount of product you get in the bottle is worth the price as only a little bit is needed to cover the face. I am currently on my second bottle and plan to repurchase it again and again. I am a very satisfied customer :) -

Overall I really like this cleanser. First of all it doesn't break me out, which is great since I've had acne problems for a few years now. I really like how it comes out as a gel but as you rub it on your wet face it turns into a foam..I've never tried a cleanser that does that and I love foam cleansers. I really like the consistency of the formula. After washing it off, my skin feels very clean but not "squeaky"..it doesn't strip away the moisture. As far as brightening my skin, I can't say I see a significant difference although my hyperpigmentation from my previous acne problem does seem to be getting better (I can't tell if its the cleanser that is doing this or the cream I use afterwards). I think this is a very nice cleanser and one of the best I've tried so far..I will probably be repurchasing it once I finish this bottle. On that note, the price is great for the amount of product you're getting..I've been using it for several months and I'm about 75% through the bottle. I use this cleanser twice everyday..in the morning and at night. -
