HOW TO USE Apply a pea-sized amount of foundation to your fingertips, warm it up, and smooth it over your face---cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin. Blend it in with your fingers to activate the Advanced Hydra-Smoothing Technology, then use a foundation brush in circular motions to buff and build coverage as needed. Use the Ambient Soft Glow Foundation Brush for natural, medium coverage, or the Vanish Seamless Finish Foundation Brush for a flawless, fuller-coverage finish. ARTISTRY TIPS 1. Prime the Complexion: Begin by prepping the skin with Veil Mineral Primer to create a smooth, even base. 2. Dispense & Activate: Apply a pea-sized amount of Illusion Luminous Glow Foundation to your fingertips and warm it between your fingers to activate the Advanced Hydra-Smoothing Technology. 3. Apply & Blend: Gently smooth the foundation over your face---cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin---then massage it in with your fingertips for seamless, even coverage. 4. For Natural Coverage: After application, use the Ambient Soft Glow Foundation Brush to buff the foundation into your skin. Blend using circular motions for a medium coverage finish that enhances your natural radiance. 5. For Fuller Coverage: Once applied with fingertips, switch to the Vanish Seamless Finish Foundation Brush to thoroughly buff the product into the skin for a smooth, flawless look. Add a second layer if needed, blending well between each application. 6. Finish and Set: Once you've achieved your perfect coverage, consider setting your foundation with Veil Translucent Setting Powder for long-lasting wear and a radiant finish.

Versatile Foundation
This foundation formula was actually SUPRISINGLY very full-coverage considering it has spf in it. The texture is very thick and a little goes a long way. I will say because of the spf you probably don't want to be putting it too close to your eyes if they are sensitive like mine but that's literally...

Not for me unfortunately
⭐️I received this Illusion Luminous Glow Foundation with SPF 30 Complimentary from HourGlass Cosmetics in exchange for my honest review. I unfortunately was not a big fan of this product. First the shade I chose that would normally be a perfect match was too orange. I do like makeup that adds skin...

Underwhelmed
I am in the middle of changing foundations and thiught i would give this one a try. I did a test run with skin prep and no other products were applied after doing my test application. While that went well, each subsequent day got progressively worse for about a week. The formula was already separating in the bottle, even after shaking it. The buildability of the product was also slightly questionable. Once i applied this to my skin, my very appropriately hydrated & prepped skin became dry, itchy and irritated feeling. By the end of the week, my whole face looked like it was peeling from a sunburn. I ended up returning it today. It wasnt worth the price or hassle to my skin. Thankfully, it didnt take much to correct the irritation caused by this formula.
Has a mousse texture and not very glowy.
It was okay. Just found a better shade in a different foundation that I liked better so I returned.
BEST FOUNDATION EVER
I Bought this foundation and tried it iut but exchagned it for another foundation. IMMEDIATE REGRET. I started thinking about this foundation and how AMAZING it made me look. My boyfriend completed more then usual and said my make up looks the best it ever has! Its worth the price! My face looks like a filter and its naturally radiant. I have dry skin so the spf is a plus!
Too matte
When I went to put this on I was expecting a smooth liquid foundation but what I got was a clay like foundation where more is more. It felt drying and the opposite of what luminous should feel like. I won't buy again.
Nope!
I love the other hourglass products, I've gotten the skin tint multiple times and I wanted to try this one since it had SPF, but it's completely different and in the worst way
