I'm not sure what I'm missing here. This did nothing for my dry/sometimes sensitive late-20's skin. Blech!

I've been liking this so far, but think of it more as a cosmetic rather than a skincare product. I love the mattifying qualities & it does neutralize my redness a bit, but have not seen any...

I know I raved about this before but I had to remove it! This did do wonders for my skin for the first 6 months of using. I used it at night and it made my skin very very smooth with little to no...

This makes my combo skin supersmooth and even-textured. It conceals pores and mattifies well, and makes a nice silky base for foundation. I don't use it in the evening as EL suggest, because I am...

I really liked the feel of my skin after I used it. It got rid of reddness and flakes immediately. However, it left a slippery feel that made makeup difficult to apply and stay-put. I would...

Made my skin itch and verrrrrry red. Weird stuff that did not work under makeup (made it go on gloppy and made it stick to areas on my face) nor did it work alone at night -- no bueno.

I love this stuff. I was able to receive a sample from a gwp. It makes me skin soo soft and really helps my pores! And it smells amazing. I just wish it wasn't so darn expensive!
