I have the illumination and really like it a lot. I have a trial size of the regular cc cream. I have only used it once. It seemed very oily. I will say though that might of been I used a serum and moisturizer and then a primer so I think that was the problem. Today when I used the illumination all I used was my moisturizer. So next time I use the regular cc cream I won't use my serum just my moisturizer and no primer.

I purchased in the Rich shade. I enjoy her powder illuminating foundation so I already knew what to expect. It makes my skin look dewy which I like and one pump was enough to cover my entire face. Also, the tube is huge. I can easily use this for the balance of the year and probably into 2017.

I love the brush, it's incredibly soft.

The tightline, has never been anything special to me.

I am very disappointed in the lip balm. No color whatsoever. I watched several presentations and all of the models including Alicia always look as if they had some color.

It's a keeper for me.

I love the set! I have been using the Illumination CC cream for awhile already and love how it makes my skin look. I was hoping they would super size it!! I still use a moisturizer and primer wth the IT line. Their products do stay on all day until I am ready to remove it. The lip balm I like as a lip moisturizer. It gives barely any color but it's not a real lip stick anyway. I keep it in my night stand and use it at night. The kit came with a sample of their Bye Bye Undereye in Illumination! I didn't.know it came in Illumination since I use the regular one. I tried it and loved it so I ordered a tube from the IT website with free shipping and a small discount!, I haven't tried the tight line yet. The whole packing in of this TSV was beautiful. I did not AD since that big tube will last me a year!

I ordered mine - BUT after midnight (still go tthe good price) but I am waitlisted on the auto-delivery plan. I hadnt had much time to thinka bout it that day then was too late of course - thats what I get for riding the fence. HOWEVER, I think it'd be a good dela for me as I like the regular CC - haven't tried this one - and you're essentially getting the balm and mascara as a bonus so it's a good deal. I'd probably just give the balm to my tween daughter.

I love the regular cc cream, but for some reason it can cause small breakouts and irritation on my skin. It almost has a slight stinging, itchy feeling when I first put it on.

I wore the illumination cc cream for the first time today, no irritation at all, I can not figure that out!

Anyway, I may be in the minority, but I do like this tsv!

The regular CC cream has citrus in it which can be irritating. Does the illumination smell like citrus too?

I got mine and the verdict is still out! I want to know if this foundation is the same as the Bye Bye Foundation you see in ther infomercials! I'm not sure it is the same.
A youtuber had both side by side and she read the ingredients and they both had the exact same.And the Be Bye is smaller and more expensive. So I don't know what is going on with that!

The ingredients aren't exactly the same but almost the same (there's a difference in scent) The back of the tubes say exactly the same thing. The Bye Bye Foundation is $65 and the CC cream is $38.

That could be it! I'm not sure but the illuminating formula does not irriate my skin, I have been wearing it everyday! I should contact It Cosmetics and ask if there are any differences in the formulas.
