The first time I bought this product in radiant beige I loved it. Come sin a glass pump bottle. The color was warm, the texture was more dewy, and the apricot gleam was very nice. I re-ordered the same product, and got a more matte formula, a lighter more ash color, and the apricot gleam was invisible. What gives?

This foundation is watery thin in consistency, I prefer a thicker foundation. I found it to sink into my fine line when I used it rather than sitting on top of them like most anti-aging and youthful appearance foundations do. I believe the only reason that they call it that is because of the tiny gold particles floating in it. They are supposed to give you a more luminous appearance, which I guess it did to some extent.

..this stuff is just meh. it's a bit too heavy for my taste, in texture. it supposedly has little microparticles of pearly stuff to make you look softer or something, but i didn't really notice that..i think i got a shade that's too light for me, as well. i use this because i have it, but agnes b makes other stuff that's much better.
