COMPLEXION RESCUE Tinted Hydrating Gel Cream

When I don't have the time to apply a separate SPF and then foundation, this is what I reach for...provided my skin is reasonably clear! If not then I use a heavier coverage foundation because even though it is buildable, I cannot get anything more than light-medium coverage from it with 2 applications, any more than that doesn't build it up any further. The texture threw me off at …Read more

This gel cream starts out great, with beautiful coverage initially. It's a nice glowy, natural light-medium coverage at first and dries fairly quickly. However, I notice my face tends to 'eat' this up and it does not provide anything close to the same type of coverage after just 4-5 hours. Since this is a tinted moisturizer, I don't like to put anything on underneath, but …Read more

After many years of battering my face with full coverage matte foundations, I found myself bored with the flat matte mask like look.
I've always shied away from more natural/dewy foundations because I'd convinced myself my own skin wasn't good enough not to have coverage by the bucket load on.
Anyway, craving a different makeup routine I did a little research and came …Read more

I just recently purchased this & I am in love. Exactly what I wanted sheer, light, & promotes a more even tone. It gives you a sheer glowy coverage. It makes my skin look youthful & awake. I love that it also gives a mineral SPF protection. It has a creamy texture that blends in easily with your fingers. A little goes a long way; the product should last for a while. I have some light …Read more

Beautiful, light and hydrating. I have dry and sensitive skin and this is a godsend. It gives a dewy, Korean BB cream-esque finish. Almost makes it look like you have highlighter on the high points of your face. It holds up perfectly throughout the day without powder, however I sometimes top it up a bit around 7-8 hours or so. I have acne scarring and it perfectly covers the scars and any redness …Read more

I headed to Ulta with one thing in mind, that was to try out Bareminerals foundation stick. Instead, I tried out the tinted moisturizer. I guess I have passed by this several times during my visits to Ulta. I didn't like how the foundation stick applied to the back of my hand. The foundation stick looked heavy and the color ( Cashew 3.5 ) didn't look right. I reached for the tinted …Read more

I’m an nc15 in mac, and got the shade Vanilla. It’s just a hair dark for me, but I can get away with it. I mainly was using it while running errands or going to the gym. I liked the way it looked and it lasted a few hours. Sadly I realized this was breaking me out, I had been using it daily for a week. My breakouts started going away when I stopped wearing it :( I don’t usually break out easily …Read more

I only gave it 2 stars. One for the packaging and the other for an overall rating. The cost speaks for itself.

While I only had it overnight, I realised placing my finger on the opening wasn’t the most sanitary way to apply it...even if they were thoroughly washed beforehand.

Plus, I wore it for about 2 hours and it never sunk into my skin AND it never dried down. It went …Read more

I agree with some other reviewers when they say WOW this is beautiful and but gave me a reaction. I have super dry skin so i wanted something moisturising but without chemical sunscreen. This is a sheer to medium coverage. I wore this in the shade natural and it looked beautiful on my skin. I used their new concealer and then built this up with a slight dusting of setting powder and I never …Read more

My Shade: Vanilla 02
Other shades that work for me: TF BTW Porcelain, EL Doublewear 1N2, MAC C1.

I cannot rave enough about this product! It is the perfect lightweight, light coverage, natural looking base. I simply apply a little over primer, spread with my fingers, then blend with a beauty blender. I have no issues with this product caking, streaking or applying patchy. It …Read more
