Hourglass Illusion Tinted Moisturiser

Continuing on my tinted moisturiser reviews- I have found a satisfactory one (or two or three :-D) to use.

Next up for review is one by Hourglass: Illusion tinted moisturiser. It's oil free and has an SPF of 15. This brand is quite new in Australia. It was only introduced to Mecca Cosmetica last year.

Packaged in a sleek black box

Apparently Hourglass is the latest in the newest skin technology etc. The description sounds like what you want to hear.

Ingredients- not natural at all

The tube...
.. is a pump bottle! Disappointed!

A little sample of the product

Matches really well

On the face. The coverage would be medium to heavy and it's definitely buidable.

Not too bad- my skin does look slightly luminous.

So this tinted moisturiser retailed for $78 which I thought was reasonable for a product that was higher end. I did like the colour match- it was almost spot on. However the product had some shimmer which I didn't realise when I tested in the store. At the end of the day, a combination of facial oils and the shimmer made my face look oily rather than luminous! It is also in a pump tube and I have mentioned my dislike of them. So unfortunately, this is not one of my chosen tinted moisturiser.
