    Oh Well! It's Estee Lauder, so it is expensive. But does it work? In my opinion it does, because my skin feels absolutely smooth, moisturizer & make-up go on a lot easier. It also seems to me that...

    I've been having breakouts around my cheeks for months and "Idealist" came highly recommended. The fluid is easily absorped, leaving a lovely matte finish. However, even after using it day and...

    After reading so much raves I bought this stuff. But I'm so disappointed! After applying my skin got dry (stretched pores)and itchy. It did nothing good for my skin... I returned it.
