I was so sparkly!!!! My boyfriend always said he had glitter on his face from me! It did work wonders for me in the morning to brighten me up, but the glitter annoyed me so i dont use it anymore.

I have been using this foundation for a couple of years now and I have found it's pretty good for a cheap drugstore option. I have very pale skin, so the lightest colour is still a bit too dark...

I looked like a disco ball. Having this much sparkle and glitter on my face was good fun when I was 8...not so much now though. 'Illuminating foundation' should not mean they need to put ten tone...

I hate that I discovered this foundation as it's being discontinued. Maybe it's because I have fair skin but I don't see any glitter that others are talking about, nobody else was able to observe...

This has chunks of glitter in it. If you don't want to look like you have dressed up like a pixie, do not buy this. Illuminate=good. Glitter=bad.
