My take on the product

I had purchased this product long back sometime in April. The packaging and claims of the product were quitetempting and I’d never tried a Tinted moisturizer before so I went ahead and bought the shade Light. I wore it a few times but in the sultry summer, this product was too heavy for my skin. It made my oily skin greasy and the ‘glow’ barely lasted a while. Moreover, I was slightly tanned and the shade Light looked a little ashy on my skin tone.

But the story in the winters is a completely different tale! This tinted moisturizer gives the right dose of hydration and coverage to my winter combination skin for an dewy everyday look. The product comes in a black tube with an orange screw on cap. The packaging isn’t expensive or classy looking but it is quite catchy!

The texture of the moisturizer is creamy and is slightly on the heavier side. It is peach tinted and contains very fine gold micro shimmer that gives the ‘glow‘. The cream is hydrating and on my combination skin, it makes my T-zone slightly oily after a few hours of wear which can be taken care of by powdering. It blends easily and leaves a slight cast behind so in flash photographs, it might show up slightly. It gives light to medium coverage. It doesn’t give enough coverage to under the eyes and other pigmentation areas like around the nose and mouth. The finish is dewy but not overly oily. The gold micro shimmer is very subtle and you wouldn’t notice it unless you look really closely in the mirror in a well lit area (under direct sunlight). It just gives a nice healthy glow to the skin. I reach out for this product when I want a natural, medium coverage, non-cakey look with a bit of a glow!

For oily skin in summers, this would be too heavy but dry/normal/combination skin types would love this for an everyday wear skin cover. One would need a sunscreen as this contains neither SPF not PA++.

The product has a mild peachy fragrance which I personally really like!

I would recommend this product to all dry/normal/combination skinned women!
