Too bad this has glitter. Hard pass. I will not repurchase.

Even after I powder I can see shimmer on my face :((. Its not a glow it's a visible shimmer like a twilight vampire. It emphasizes texture, doesn't feel all that moisturizing on and oxidizes. I'm...

Sadly this must go back. #1. Glitter. As far as I'm concerned, glitter has no place in a daily staple product. I had no idea until I started to examine my face close up. For stage or tv, ok. ...

I initially bought the non-illuminating (regular) version in Light, and it was great but a little too dark. When I went back to the store, I saw this Illumination (Sparkly) version - and also that...

I have all of It's offerings and this was the worst for my sensitive, rosacea skin. It minimizes my redness and at first hour looks great. I thought it was going to be perfect for my n/d acne prone...

Total glitter face, doesn't look bad from afar, but when you lookup close your face is covered in micro glitter. I just wanted illumination, not glitter. Had to return to sephora after trying it...

I'm surprised at the less than stellar reviews on this product. It says 'illumination' right on the bottle, of course its going to have some shiny-type of effect to it. I love this CC cream, which...

This is more of a foundation rather than a typical BB/CC Cream. I do really like it, though. It has high SPF, a lovely medium-to-full coverage luminous finish (as everyone else has mentioned...

LOVE It, goes on easy and blends well. My new favorite now that Carmindy has been discontinued. Some complain of it being to glittery... always shake your foundation well before applying. I'll keep...

The illumination in this CC+ cream comes from sparkles. Yup, sparkles. Glitter. Sparkly glitter. I’d much rather get an illumination in the form of glow, not glitter. Pixi Glowtion Day Dew...

I really like how this cream feels applied on my skin. It does contain a lot of shimmer so it is not a natural look, but you also don't look like you are covered in glitter. The pump on the tube...
