Being a person with oily/combination skin, I usually aim on
getting the products that give me matte finish, especially in the current hot
and humid climate. However, I always welcome a fresh glow and dewy look that
makes me look brightened up and natural, as long as it sustains the heat and
humidity. This particular product from Liz Earle has definitely helped me
achieve that quite nicely. So, on that note, let us have a look at the product
below:

My experience with this product:
The product comes in a nice classy deep blue colored tube
packaging with a screw open cap. The texture of this skin tint is a bit thick
but creamy enough to go on smoothly and blend seamlessly into my skin. This
particular shade "Beige 02"of the skin tint, looks a bit lighter on my skin tone (MAC NC
35/37) while applying, but blends perfectly into my skin without leaving any
whitish cast. All I get is a nice healthy glow and even skin tone with slightly
dewy finish. As far as coverage matters, I feel it gives light to medium
coverage, so you definitely need your concealer to cover your dark circles and
any blemishes. It has SPF 15, which I find apt for current overcast weather
here. It has never given any kind of irritation or breakout to my skin. I love the way it naturally brightens up my face, without making me look
cakey, oily or shiny in any way and it stays put without getting effected by
heat and humidity for 4-5 hours. However, I always ensure to put compact over
it.
Availability of this product can be a concern as it is not
available everywhere, but you can order it from Liz Earle's official website,
and other online stores that stock Liz Earle's products. Also, it contains parabens :(. Apart from that, I
somehow don't like the smell of it. It isn't bad, just a bit weird...reminds me
of rust, somehow. Anyways, to each its own! :)
Overall: It is a
great product for normal-dry-oily/combination skin people. I feel it will look
less dewy and more natural on people with dry and normal skin. For my
oily/combination skin, it does give a dewy finish as soon as I apply it but then
the effect fades to a natural healthy glow within 5 minutes of application. It
feels very light on skin and I've been using it almost daily these days before
stepping out. Would definitely love to purchase it again.
