Everytime i wear this foundation, people tell me i have a glow. I love the dewy finish it gives my skin and it makes my skin look fantastic in photographs.

I have to complain about the packaging, after a couple weeks I couldn't get the lid to seal properly..it just goes round and round. And I don't like how big the opening is. I can't use this with moisturizer or it looks greasy. It is a wonderful product for that evening glow - not much coverage but it is great for that healthy sheen. I like this product.

While this provided a nice glow, it gave me terrible whiteheads. I've switched to Ultima II's Glowtion foundation with no problems.

I have repurchased this product a couple times. I have "Candle Glow" wich is a tad more yellow than my skin, but it looks great on once it's blended. I love it's luminous/dewey quality. I have oily skin and have no problems with it. I find that it doesn't do well on me if I have flakey or blemished skin.

This is my absolute favourite foundation, and I will buy it again and again! I have it in 05 Beige Glow, and it is a perfect match for my skintone. I tried this after reading a magazine review, and they were not kidding - it's fantastic! I dab some on my cheeks and forehead, and I blend it with my fingers. It leaves my skin soft and literally glowing! I feel and look so healthy when I wear this, and you can not even tell that I'm wearing makeup! Staple all the way!

Very important though: You really have to read the back of products. This is for all but the oiliest skins, which explains why people with an oily t-zone will hate this product. I have dry/normal skin and it works brilliantly!

This product didn't really work well for me. I was really excited about the idea of getting a "glowy" look, but instead it made me oily and greasy looking. I have an oily T-zone and this foundation only emphasized it, and slid off my face in areas.

I hated this stuff! Not only did it make my skin look super oily and shiny, but the color didn't match at all! I went back to the Clinique counter three times to switch shades because they all looked too orange on me. Finally, I took it back to the counter for a refund. Honestly, this was the worst foundation that I've ever tried. Maybe it would look better on someone who doesn't have combo skin, but it didn't look good on me at all. However, I do like the Gentle Light loose powder, but don't waste your money on the foundation!

Although I usually like Clinique products, I couldn't make this one work. I don't have extremely oily skin, but I do have an oily T-zone, and this product caused that area to look like the Exxon Valdeze crash. About two hours after applying, my forehead and nose were SUPER shiny and greasy to the touch. I liked the super sheer coverage though, and the color match was perfect. I have since switched to Jane's Stay Calm and I love it - matte look all day, and for MUCH cheaper.

I've used this for 1.5 years and am quite pleased with it. I was able to match my skin exactly, which is no easy task considering how pale I am. It doesn't irritate my skin, yet gives it a nice glow and just the slightest bit of coverage. This product, in my opinion, is best for summer weather because it is so light. In the winter I prefer something heavier with a bit more coverage.

I like this product, but not as a foundation-I use this as a highlighter or I mix it w/concealer.
This is more of a tinted moisturizer in my opinion-there really is not any coverage

I liked this product because it really did make my face glow. But, if I put it on after I moisturized, it wouldn't blend into my skin. It would just slide around.

I bought this foundation about 2 weeks ago and haven't reviewed it until now to see how it treated my face. It's great! It has caused no breakouts at all and provides a very sheer, luminous coverage. Nude Glow was a perfect match for me. Yes, there are some small shimmery particles in it, but nothing too junior high. The shimmers are very tasteful in my opinion. This product probably would not be best for those with oily skin or those who want full coverage. However, anyone with normal to dry skin who is looking for a sheer, glowing foundation, choose this! It's a staple for me now. It has even replaced my Estee Lauder Enlighten, and it's about $10 cheaper, too!

This was too shiny!!! I have oily skin, but still want a glowy finish. Well, this put a spotlight on my face. It was just too shiny and the coverage was minimal. I did not like.

I love the loose powder but I hate the foundation. It makes my dry skin look like dry skin with an oil slick painted over it. I have fair skin I purchased a light shade and it is still too dark. I really was disappointed

Gorgeous, light and sheer, this product radiates and evens out my skin. I apply it with my fingers after dabbing a few spots on my face and neck. Very natural and beautiful effect.
