Lifesaver of a product! I've got light skin that's not really light, it's yellowy lightly tanned skin tone. Yet, I'm still lighter than anything yellow toned that Rimmel "wake me up" and maybelline...

The texture is really nice, gives a nice satiny sheen without any sparkle. As long as I only use a little, too much does tend to enhance texture and sink into lines in my drier areas of my mature...

Works well when used with most of my foundations, which are not oil-free for the most part. This is a densely pigmented pink-toned ivory colour that does work when mixed with foundations - most...

Good product. Works as intended- lightens foundations. It mixes in well with my foundations and doesn't cause any textural issues with silicon based foundations. (I'm assuming this won't work with...

My first shade adjusting drops ever. Is it worth the money? Or are there more magical powers behind this white bottle that we have to experience yet? Let's find out: I had to buy a product which...

This is a cool product and I'm surprised more companies aren't making something similar. It does what it says - lightens and neutralizes yellow-based foundation. The price point is up there, but if...

I am very pale, and about 90% of foundations are too dark for me. I like the liquid consistency of these drops to lighten foundation without changing the consistency. The bottle lasts for a really...

Terrible product! First of all, the packaging is absolutely atrocious. The dropper is ridiculous. It does not suck up enough product and when you try to dispense the product it comes out in...

Dream product. Yes, it's a little expensive but actually when you consider what a teeny-tiny amount is being used it lasts a very long time! I've used this all winter to colour-match a couple of...

Let me start by saying I'm a neutral undertone fair skinned girl so sometimes foundations are too pink or too yellow/orange. I got these to try out with my favourite high street foundation...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxvcHFMWMP8 These drops kind of blew my mind. I was kind of intimated with the concept - you mix one drop into your foundation to lighten it by about 1/2 a shade....

Where has this product been all my life? Most of the foundations I've ever bought have turned out ''almost light enough'' and this would have saved me lots of wasted money! Anyway, better late than...

Good product, and works well with every foundation that I've mixed it with so far. The only drawback is that the texture and finish of the foundation noticeably changes if you use more than three...

Not sure why the reviews are so mixed but I think this is a great product to lighten the shade of any foundation. I mix many shades and use a few drops to get the color I need. I had so many...

I wanted to love this so bad! Yes it really lightens a lot, the foundation doesn't change its consisntecy but for me it gets so oily! And I mean awlfully oily!

This has really bad reviews and I don't understand why! I think it's a great product that significantly lightens the shade of your foundation. I use it to lighten my foundation by a few shades and...
