  Pros

  I tried this at the store before buying the compact, and I must say the application is top-notch! It's moisturizing, and the subtle pearl effect seems to even out my complexion beautifully.

  Cons

  I'm not sure why, but it stings my eyes... Maybe it's because of the sunscreen ingredients? I regret not checking the ingredients list before purchasing. Sadly, it contains 5 out of 20 ingredients to be cautious about.

  Pros

  I applied this before using the Radiant Longwear Foundation, and my skin looked absolutely gorgeous! I tested it at the department store and was so impressed that I bought it on the spot. While I can't speak for other foundations, it pairs perfectly with the Radiant one. Since I prefer a dewy finish over matte, this was ideal for me. When I use this before makeup, my skin looks so healthy. Although it's a primer, I'm not sure about its pore-covering abilities, but it definitely improves skin texture. That's probably why it works so well with that foundation (which I've heard is nicknamed the 'texture glow foundation'). The absorbs well too - just smooth it on with your fingers. While the SPF isn't super high, it's enough that I always apply this even on days when I'm in a rush and skip sunscreen.

  Cons

  The price is pretty steep, and the amount you get is quite small... And be careful around the eyes! It can really sting! I already had some eye issues, but one day when I applied too much, my eyes were irritated all day. When I went to the doctor, they said the inflammation had worsened. Still, it makes my skin look so good that I can't stop using it... I feel incomplete without it.

  Tip

  Amount control is crucial! For my face, using slightly less than a pea-sized amount works well for the entire face. For the eye area, I apply it all over my face first, then just use whatever's left on my hands to gently pat around the eyes. Same goes for foundation - after applying it all over, I use the residue on my hands for my eye area before doing eye makeup. It seems to make the eye makeup last a bit longer. I took off one star because of the eye irritation issue.
