Most Helpful Positive Review

Holy cow this product is amazing

If this product ever stops being sold I'm just going to give up makeup entirely. Maybe an exaggeration... but maybe not. This tinted moisturizer is AMAZING. I am 33 nearing 34 and have always had very very oily skin and difficult to match undertones (light olive, slightly neutral leaning yellow). Fi...nding face products - liquids, powders, creams, serums, anything - has always been a chore. If a product matches my undertone it doesn't keep my oiliness at bay more than a few hours; if it keeps my oil at bay a little longer then it doesn't match my undertone. And the oiliness? Oh the oiliness. I'd use pH neutral face wash, serum, gel-based hydrating moisturizer, mattifying primer, and long-lasting mattifying foundation (or similar product), finishing off with a mattifying setting spray while chugging water all day to stay hydrated and I'd STILL be blotting by hours 4-6. Then I stumbled across this product in Ulta looking for something else entirely but decided to give this a shot because A.) moisturizer; B.) shade range; C.) pretty packaging! I didn't want heavy or full-coverage foundation - I just wanted something to even out my skin tone and I'd take care of the blemishes via concealer. I found a shade that somewhat closely matched my skin tone in the always-bad lighting of those aisles, and have been wearing it almost daily for 2 weeks now. THIS PRODUCT IS INCREDIBLE. Truly, tear-inducingly incredible. I feel like my frustrations of spending years and years finding a product that ticks even 90% of my makeup needs boxes has finally been alleviated. I apply it with a damp beauty blender over a washed and well moisturized based - with or without any mattifying primers - and it keeps my skin tone even and my oiliness TRULY at bay for 10+ hours. A brush leaves a weird finish and finger application grosses me out. The oily is still there of course because, you know, our bodies work that way, but the oil-slick ice rink SHINE is nowhere to be seen and I don't feel any of it sitting on my face like I do other products. This feels and looks absolutely weightless, genuinely like a second skin. It also doesn't settle into my laugh lines at all. The color match isn't 10000% perfect because I sort of guessed in the dim aisle but honestly it's like a half-fraction of a shade off and you really cannot tell unless you're in some high powered vanity lighting (I can't even tell in natural light). This is my new go-to that I'll be stocking up on and I hope ColourPop never discontinues this. It would be heartbreaking to have to start all over again.
