I have and oily t-zone and pretty much combination skin. Since the rest of my face can produce a bit of oil from time to time, but can also be dry from time to time. I am on a path of seeking my everyday HG foundation. I am not the type of person to use a lot of make up and 1 will do fine. I got a sample from this from the Department store counter. First, the shade she gave me was darker and was not a match. That part was fine as it can be changed. So I timed and tested this bad boy out. Although I did forget to test it wearing sunglasses, that is the ultimate challenge for me, shows if it smears, transfers or cakes. Pros: VERY long lasting Does NOT budge DOES NOT transfer Hard to get off skin (to me this is a pro, you just need a really good facial cleanser) Cons: Can get patchy on oily nose Makes pores larger or just emphasizes them (still not good, I also used a primer and powder with this) I should've tried this by using sunglasses and going outside, but I didn't and even without the humidity and heat. It still looked patchy on my nose and emphasized my pores. If you have no issues with pores and you like the pros that I stated, this could be your HG foundation. However, it just isn't mine.

When I started to need to use foundation, I had to do my research since I had no clue as to what to do with foundation. I have only tried 1 other setting/loose/finishing powder and it doesn't even compare to this! This is translucent and makes your skin "glow". It's long lasting and helps keep your make up stay in place. LOVE LOVE LOVE this! Also, I didn't even notice it that much until a friend of mine saw my pic on facebook and asked what I did to my face.

I have 2 of these so that I always have a spare. I always wash my brushes after I use them. It can take 1-2 days to dry, That's why I have 2 of these. I am thinking of getting 1 more because of the drying time. I use this for my loose/setting/finishing powder on top of my foundation. OMG! It does the job right with no problems!

I have most of their studio brushes and they are amazing. I have paid more for brushes and the studio ones are even better with a lot less amount to get them for! They're always soft and never falls off!

I did try to use other serums and this is amazing! Your skin gets an amazing glow and prepares it for the moisturizer after. I do use this 2x a day. In the mornings I mix this with the Lumene Time freeze serum and it's a great combination for me!

I used the Excellent line from Lumene once with other Lumene products and got distracted by marketing and price which made me switch to Nuance. That was a horrible mistake! With Nuance, I broke out, my skin was dull and the dark circles under my eyes got darker! I decided to switch back to Lumene and this time around, since the eye cream that I used was the Time Freeze, I decided to go with the entire Time Freeze line. If only they had a toner. I use this with the Excellent Future Age-Defying and Repairing Serum and OMG! It goes on smooth and makes my skin softer and velvety after it has absorbed. It goes in the skin pretty fast too. A little goes a long way, so try half a pump then if you need more another half. I have noticed that with ALL Lumene products that all you need is just a little bit. The scent is clean and light. Reminds me of a high end department store or spa. I am now on my 2nd bottle. I also use this morning and night.

When you see what this looks like, it looks like mud. Very unappetizing. For anyone who's been at spas and have gotten facials, this would not be so shocking. Facial masks can come in very different colors. The important part is what happens after you take it off. I have used this a few times and what I've noticed is that if you leave it on for more than 5-10 minutes (this is an estimate), after you rinse it off. Your face will feel so refreshed, clean, bright and your skin feels very cool. Definitely a keeper. So far everything that I've bought from the Lumene line has been great!

After reading all the great reviews for this balm, of course I wanted to try it. So I bought it and I am hating this lip balm! It is not hydrating and it darkens my lips!! The color is a more peachy shade than red from the photograph. If this came in a better shade, which was similar to the photograph, maybe it's a little bit tolerable. I don't like that I have to use my finger to apply it on, it makes it messy somehow. I don't think I'll buy this ever again and I do not recommend this for anyone. For anyone who made a great review, I am unsure as to why they managed to do that. This is a horrible product!

I stumbled upon Lumene and after reading as much as I can about their products, I thought I'd give it a try. I bought this online and thought I'd try it out. After several reviews, I shake this as much as I can before using it. I first used this in the morning and realized I either used too much or this is making my face extremely gresy. So I was disappointed and thought that I might have to throw this out. Before resorting to that, I then started using this at night, since I sometimes woke up with somewhat dry skin. I also figured that a little goes a long way. And spreading it out as fast as you can as it can feel that you might need more. It goes on your skin smooth and makes your skin so velvety that you will think you will need more. NOT the reason. It just absorbs really fast. I use this at night and then use Lumene - ExCELLent Future Deep Repairing Night Cream. I thought if this doesn't work when I wake up, then I guess I will throw this out. Boy am I happy I was wrong! When I wake up eveveryday with rosy pink cheeks that makes me look really healthy and glwoing! It is also not dry. FYI I live in a central air and heat apartment with no humidifier.

I have been using this since it was in a previous formula. It used to be more water based than gel. So it was thinner. Everything seems to be the same. It gives me a healthy glow. I have used a different blush for a while and went back to this. I use this everyday, makes me look fresh and doesn't make me look so washed out. I also put this on after a serum, moisturizer and then sunscreen. After I rub this in, I apply my mineral powder or pressed powder. A little goes a long way, so do not put too much. Try to experiment on how you want to look. And you will eventually know how much you need. I usually use less than 1 drop for both cheeks.
