I got two samples of this so I could wear it for a week to see if I like it. I LOVE the fact that you can get samples of Paula's Choice products for a small charge to see if you like the product....

I LOVE this product - can't do without it. It gives a very natural-looking sheer coverage that evens out my skin tone without making me look made up. It's brilliant for correcting the white cast...

I love this product. As many have said before, and as is pretty clear from the name, this is a sheer tint that is best used to even out skin tone. Because I like my skin to show through, I use this...

This is not a bad product at all. Good finish, but for me personally, it's just not enough coverage. Seems best for those who just need minor evening out of skin tone. Would be good for young...

I loved this but I can't wear it because like other pale people have also said, the Fair is not fair enough. Other than that, it lasted long on me, looked smooth, not cakey at all and wasn't...

First of all, please note that it is not called a tinted moisturizer, but a sheer tint, so don't expect it to moisturize. I was looking for sheer coverage with a physical sunscreen and this...

This is a good tint for girls with no skin problems. It will not cover any enlarged pores nor any acne scares. And the rest is just wonderful. It lasts a whole day without melting down. Sheer...

This is Paula's only product that I will not be repurchasing. My skin can pretty much withstand anything, but about 50% of the time I use it, I feel burning on my face and get reactive redness....

Because Paula is so critical - and rightfully so, don't get me wrong - I expect her products to be virtually above reproach. This product is suggested for those with oily/combination rosacea. I get...

I bought this because I needed a mattifying TM or foundation. I bought it from the Paula's Choice Web site, and to me, the 1.0 fl. oz. tube was way too expensive. Still, I wanted it to work...

I got this in Sheer Ivory after reading the reviews on MUA. I can't say I'm very pleased with this TM, since I almost don't notice it on my skin. It actually IS barely there. It doesn't even out my...
