Disappointing

Thorne (314 reviews)

This product looked promising and was inexpensive plus on sale. I thought this would be more of a powder with a slight glow of a finish, but this is more of a shiny highlighter. I have medium-light skin and the "Light Glow" color was a good match. It did not irritate my super sensitive combo skin. It was shinier (looked kind of dewy at first) than expected and really brought out the imperfections in my skin and had small pieces of visible glitter in the sunlight. Both the good and bad news was that it flaked off quickly and only lasted on my face a couple of hours. As a powder I was glad it wore off quickly because it amplified my wrinkles and pores. As a shimmer product it originally was nice but not worth it because it completely wore off in a couple of hours. I never have this problem, so it is the powder. The container is cheap and looks like it would break or crumble-not good for travel. It has a separate compartment for the applicator, which is great. Unfortunately the applicator is a mostly useless brush. Not my best find. — 10 months, 3 weeks ago

Leaves a soft glow, not shimmery or shiny

luxelife (10 reviews)

As someone of Asian descent in her mid-30s with truly classic combination, acne-prone and somewhat sensitive skin, I'm always looking for a powder that can combat the oiliness of my T-zone, but not leave me looking dry and powdery, not settle into fine lines, not cake around my acne scars/peeling skin, and not irritate my skin or clog my pores, but instead leave a soft glow that makes my skin look dewy. This does the job fantastically. I use the airbrush kabuki from PF (hard to find in retail stores now but available on online) to buff it on and my skin looks great virtually all day. I can touch up once in the late afternoon and my face looks like it did in the morning. I use the Light Glow color for my NC35/NW30 skin and it's perfect for me, not too light in color on my face at all. — 3 months, 2 weeks ago

Excelent for Aging Skin!!!!

I love this product as well. I don't want anything heavy and I like a sheer coverage but too matte a product makes me look old and this has just the right amount of glow to make the flaws almost less noticeable. As with most mineral products though this does nothing to eliminate shine and I so wish one of these companies would take care of the issue — 2 years, 8 months ago
