I use this product as an all-over moisturizer, rather than a highlight. To me, it doesn't have enough shimmer or sheen to be used as a highlighter. Regardless, that's why I like it for a moisturizer during the day. It's rich, moisturizing, smells amazing, and has caffeine in it to wake your skin up. It's a bit pricey, but I don't use this everyday, just on days when I need that something "extra". I was a bit skeptical that this would break me out, but so far so good!

This product worked great for my combo/oily skin. I used it during the day and underneath my makeup. It absorbs quickly, has zero fragrance, and did not upset my skin. The spf is a nice bonus, too. The packaging is very neat, clean, and travel friendly. I recieved a full-size of this product because of a rewards program, but did not repurchase simply because of the high price tag.

Clinique does so many good things with their innovations and products, but this is definitely not one of them. I used this as part of their 3-step Skin Care system, and absolutely hated it. The gel cleanser smelled like chemicals and left my combo/oily skin dry and tight. When you strip your skin of oils, the face overcompensates by producing even more oil, thus resulting in breakouts...and that's exactly what I got with this product. Stay far far away!

I'm a big fan of multi-purpose products and for a long time I resisted from picking this product up. I thought that it was just overpriced water! Now it's a product that I can't live without. I use it mainly to set my makeup or fix my face when it's too powdery. I also love to refresh my face with this during the summer or spray on my face as soon as I come out of the shower in the winter, when my face needs extra moisture.

If you need a gentle everyday cleanser, than this is for you. It has a nice smell and is very gentle on the skin. It won't leave your face tight, but doesn't overly moisturize, either. I went through two bottles of this before I threw in the towel...it doesn't do much for makeup removal, or any another added benefits. I believe you can get the same effect with cetaphyl, and it's much cheaper.

I originally bought this as an undereye concealer, but it can be too heavy, crease, and a little drying. I later picked it back up to cover one or two post acne scars. It worked better than anything I had ever tried and completely camoflaged the marks. However, within a day or two, I had another blemish in the same spot where one was healing. It was a recurring problem, until I finally realized it was the concealer. Once I stopped using, the spots cleared up on their own. I don't consider myself acne prone, and hate that I can't use this. If your skin is pretty tough, I say go for it. But if it's sensitive or acne prone, stay far far away!

As far as drugstore mascaras go, I really tend to lean toward Loreal. I'm a sucker for all the new, innovative releases, and this one is no different. I liked that this product was both volumizing and lengthening. I al liked that the formulation helped my stick-straight lashes hold somewhat of a curl. I've repurchased, and even checked out the waterproof version, which is heaven!

I recieved this product as a deluxe sample and despite several uses, can't find myself to love this product. First of all the company flubbed by calling the product "spakle". No woman (despite the amount of makeup they use) wants to compare their beauty reutine to that of home improvements. The product itself doesn't do much in terms of a primer, but it does provide a bit of hydration. It didn't break me out or cause excess oiliness, so that was a plus. For the price, I believe there are much better options out there.

I went from loving this product, to hating it, to learning how to love it again. I have pretty bad dark circles, and this definitely covered them up, however, it settled into a fine line and created a weird texture on my skin by the end of the day. A year or so later, I recieved a sample of it and used it as a corrector for underneath my regular concealer. It has definitely made a differnce. The apricot color is perfect fo rmedium/olive skin tones. Just be sure to not pile the product on and blend with your fingers (the heat from your hand helps the product melt into your skin and apply more sloothly). Remember, less is more!

A great alternative to the famous "Primer Potion", I find that this gives you more coverage on the eyelid to mask any inperfections before you apply any eyeshadows. The tube will last a lifetime and the product is very easy to work with. Definitely recommend it!
