What the gurus are saying

The gurus found this foundation hydrating, easy to wear, and flattering on skin, with the integrated brush earning praise for reaching tricky spots and the glow reading as healthy rather than heavy or sparkly. The one thing to keep in mind: because it's thicker and more pigmented, it can settle slightly in fine lines and creases like the nasolabial folds, so blending carefully in those areas or using a lighter hand may help those prone to creasing.

"For a foundation, really impressive. It's hydrating. It looks pretty. It wears well. I was very impressed. The only thing is there's a slight amount of settling in my nasolabial fold area. The Illusion Luminous Glow is really creamy and a little bit thicker, gives more coverage, and obviously has more pigment so it's going to settle in those areas. But all in all, I honestly don't think anybody could tell that I have two different complexion products on."

"The shade works really well for me. The brush is so soft and the perfect size to get into the hard-to-reach areas on the face. It has quite a bit of glow to it, but honestly, it looks really healthy on the skin and it doesn't look heavy and also doesn't look sparkly, which is a good thing."
