great product
By fab 50-something
First of all, it's unfortunate that reviews for this product are listed separately based on the color. So, make sure you also check out reviews for the other colors.
I have been a user of Lancome foundation, but didn't wear it all that often because I'm just not fond of the weight of the makeup and how it can rub off. On top of that, I live in the Phoenix area, and the heat would just melt anything I put on my face anyway. I've always liked the idea of tinted moisturizer, but there again, the stuff seems to slide off my face. So I've taken to just wearing powder, or nothing at all.
I tried this product because I got a sample in a magazine, and I love it. It looks a little like a facial scrub when it first comes out of the tube (pale color with what looks like tiny beads or granules). But when you smooth it on, all that seems to disappear, and you're left with a nice, smooth, matte face. It covers my minor discolorations and sun damage perfectly, it has a nice, touchable finish, doesn't rub off at all (even in the Phoenix heat). I love it! It "perfects" my skin without looking made up. It does such a good job coloring minor skin discolorations that I actually feel like I want to add a little bit of blush to put some color back. That's not really a complaint, just an effect of putting something on the face that covers skin tone variations, I guess.
Many reviewers have complained about an orange or pink undertone; I have not found this to be the case. Perhaps it's because, generally speaking, I tend to use as little product as possible, so I apply this lightly. You do have to work somewhat fast to rub it in/smooth it on, otherwise it seems to go on a bit thick in spots (and the color is heavier/shows in the creases).
Overall, this product meets my needs. Helps my skin look better but doesn't look or feel like make up.
One last comment about the color: I've read a lot of reviews where they say to go a color lighter than you think you need; many specifically said that the medium was too dark/too orange for them. I basically have fairly light skin, but a moderate tan. The free sample I tried was "light", and I thought it was ok, but a little too light for me. I bought the "medium" and find it perfect for me! The best I can advise is to try to sample them in the store, or, like I did, find a "bogo" type offer and buy 2 colors (I'm sure I'll use the lighter one in the winter). : ) I think the price is quite reasonable.

By shyidahogirl
I have been wanting to try a beauty balm for a while now, and bought this one today on a whim from Rite-Aid. I usually use Aveeno active naturals spf 15 on my face after the shower to prevent peeling and sunburn. Its the only thing that works on my skin, or so I thought.
This stuff is amazing! It only took a dab to do my whole face. Its smooth, the tone is much more even than with Aveeno. My face is hydrated. The true test is waiting to see if it breaks my sensitive skin out in acne. It does not have SPF in it as far as I know, the tube says nothing of the sort. Its supposed to not clog pores. We will see. Reviews elsewhere on the web states that its melt-proof and smudge-proof. I am wearing it to bed in a hot summer night in the desert, so I guess I will know in 12 hours if it stands up to the hype.
Normally I wear foundation in "creamy natural" except for August, when I tan to a "buff beige". The light tone is perfect. There is one lighter and two darker (I believe) and this one is just right. There are a bunch of chemicals in it that I cannot pronounce. Two of the main ingredients are dimethicone and glycerin. It has parabens. I'm not too keen on some of the ingredients, but its the best thing I have ever used on my face to date.
For the price you can't beat it. Two pumps of Aveeno, bottle lasts 6 weeks, $16.00 for the bottle, 38 cents a day to hydrate the face. This product cost $10 at the drugstore and you only need a nickle size dollop on your hand to do the whole face. This will last 6-8 weeks. 21 cents a day to hydrate the face. Good deal, better product. You do the math.
Will be purchasing this again in the future.
EDIT: I stepped out into sunlight and looked in a mirror and to my horror I had an orange halo around my face! The "light" color is too dark for me, so I gave it to a friend and purchased the "fair" tone... its perfect! I did get a couple of little bumps on my hairline that never formed white heads, but honestly my skin was just adjusting to the new product. Still love it, still will repurchase.

Evens out skin tone without the cakey makeup feel.
By Carmen Antone
I have oily skin so I love this product as it evens out my red areas and hides pores without looking like I'm wearing make up and I have had no issues with the color (medium) and always shake the product to mix before using. It doesn't take much and it doesn't make my face feel caked or oily. It does feels gritty when it first comes out but it smooths out almost immediately. My only question is why is the exact same product is $18.99 on Amazon and only $8.00 at the dreaded Wal-mart. I love, love, love Amazon but not enough to pay $10 more for the same product.
