I'm super obsessed and so happy this was made
I have already gone through like 3 bottles of this. So maybe the only negative is I wish there was more product in the bottle. But this is the product of my dreams that I have been looking for. I love clinique serum foundation, I've used it for years, but after getting sun damage for the first time ...

Love the Skincare Benefits!
I received this product free of charge in exchange for my unbiased review. I absolutely love that this is a vitamin-rich foundation with SPF 45! I was so excited to try it because it sounded like it would be so nourishing for my skin. I really like that the coverage is buildable and the way it feel...

Great foundation- blends easily, not too heavy but covers well, very good spf.
Terrible
Tried this one time ans it broke me out terribly! My skin is not sensitive at all but this really messed it up. Got red little bumps all over my face. It also looked so gross after wearing it for a couple hours. So disappointing
will buy again
smooth radiant and natural
Great Color Selection & Coverage
