   At first, the tinted moisturiser was ok, it blended nicely into the skin which made my skin look dewy and healthy. However, 4 months later the tinted moisturiser began to separate in the tube and when you pump it out you can see the separation between the oil and the pigment. Which means you have to spend time mixing it together before you apply onto your face. Impacting the tinted moisturiser application on the face as it became quite streaky. Overall, I would not be repurchasing this product.!

   I wrote this review too soon. I’ve had this product nearly 2 months and I was really enjoying it. However, within the past week or so I’ve noticed that the product is separating very badly. When I pump the product out I can see the oils in it (the product is oil-free, so I’m not sure what is it I’m seeing but it looks like oil). Mixing it up in my hand doesn’t help. The product used to apply smooth and even but now it’s splotchy and some areas get more coverage than others. It also doesn’t set as well as it used to. The grossest part is that I can see the oil built up against side the bottle. I’ve tried shaking and squeezing the container but it doesn’t help. The product is just different now. I really enjoyed this for the first month or so but now I dread using it. I still have over 1/4 of the product left by the way, it’s frustrating. I don’t think I will repurchase because I’m afraid of this happening again. I have always stored it in a safe manner so I’m not sure what the issue is.

   I have been using this product for the past month and I really like it. The coverage is very light but it’s enough to even out my skin tone. It covers of up most of my redness but I do have some areas that are more severe and hard to cover. It won’t cover up acne or dark marks but I use a separate concealer for that. The texture is very light and overall I find the product to be lightly hydrating. Compared to most tinted moisturizers I’ve tried, I find that this does a good job of drying down and it lasts throughout the day. I like to set it with powder to ensure that my bronzer and blush don’t go patchy but I could honestly probably skip it. The packaging is nice. I like the pump and the bottle is cute. It costs $14 and you get 1.45 oz, so it’s bigger than most base products. My one complaint is that it can be problematic with certain sunscreens. It does well with chemical sunscreens but physical sunscreens are a problem. The product will apply patchy and it won’t adhere to the skin. I usually wear chemical sunscreens but sometimes I switch it up and this is definitely a downside for me. Overall though I do think it’s a nice product and I will most likely repurchase.

   P.S. My favorite application method is fingers. It also works well with a brush. I wasn’t a fan of using this with a beauty sponge. I felt like the sponge sucked up a lot of product and lessened the coverage.

   This tinted moisturizer did nothing for me. It did not look like my skin tone was “evened out,” brightened, or anything like that. Even worse, it made my face look like an oil slick, which is weird because oils absorb into my skin pretty quickly. My face was literally shiny all day. The only way I could wear this would be to apply powder after it. I’d rather just use my mineral foundation as that does a much better job at evening out my skin tone and is just one product. I have no idea what went wrong with this product because all the ingredients look good and work for me in other products, but it does nothing for me and makes me look worse.

   PROS: Price ($14), good ingredients, wide variety of color selection

   CONS: Made my dry, dehydrated skin into an oil slick; did not even out skin tone; required a powder

   My skin type: Dry, dehydrated

   Bought Fair 1N (in case that makes a difference)
