My friend told me to try it. I usually use Alba for a body cream. I've very sensitive to moisturizers and this one actually surprised me. I didn't get hives, and I used the whole bottle. I didn't find it greasy, just that my skin was soft and comfortable. I use it on damp skin right out of the shower and before bed. Lovely stuff! -

About everything three months or so my skin decides to peel. I had a lot of flaking around my eyes, I was mortified. Two days into using this, the roughness on my eyes and flaking were gone. It was a miracle. It's gentle, even when my face is raw from retin a it is soothing. I keep it by my bed so it's always there in case I need an extra layer.
I love this line. This is a Must Have for me.

This stuff works. I have dark circles and I'm in my early 40's.
I have used it with Charlotte Tillbury and Clinique foundations.
It's great because it is a thin consistency that does not cake up, but covers well. Use a beauty blender to smooth it and it really is amazing. It doesn't settle into lines,
This is a must have in my makeup arsenal. The only thing I don't like is the delivery system, I'd like something more hygienic, but since it is only used on myself, it's ok. Great product!

I was really looking forward to giving this a good review. I've tried it about two weeks, and I'm not very happy. When I first bought it, it was patchy on my chin. I thought maybe I needed Clinique's universal primer, and possibly the powder from the same line to make this product "perfecting". It didn't seem to make a difference. On my mom, it looks great, she's pushing 70 and I'm 42.
It did not last 12 hours (had a wedding), and it still broke up on me and it did settle into fine lines.
I've even tried not using it around my eyes and using Age Rewind. I still found it "caked" and separated in the chin area.
I'm still not giving up yet. I am going to try to make this work for me. So many people love this foundation, so I must be doing something wrong.
I've found the beauty blender works better than a brush and hands work better than a brush. I recommend it because maybe it's just my skin that's acting up, and I've seen my mother use hers and she really looks good.

Love this cream, always have it by my nightstand. I go tehrough my evening routine, and some nights I warm it up between my fingers and dab on my skin. Very emollient and mousturizing. My skin is extremely sensitive, especially around the eyes, and there has been no burning or flaking! -

I think this foundation has a learning curve. Currently combination, dry patches and with a few zits that are driving me bonkers.
This foundation needs a very moisturized base or oily skin. I found using an oil over my moisturizer really helped with application and appearance. I used Nuxe dry oil Dry Oil Huile Prodigieuse. I've also tried castor oil over top of my moisturizer. Longevity and less patchiness were achieved. I love this foundation but I'm not sure if it's a holy grail yet. It does cling to dry areas, less so after prepping with oil. It's not good on flaky days after retin a.
