I so agree. This kit is fabulous. The lip treatment has such staying power and is just a lovely color. Feels wonderful. Already own the blush color in a loose powder formula so I knew I would love it. The foundation is perfect. No glitter, no sparkle. Ordered the Medium Tan and it’s just perfect. Gives a flawless finish with a glow from within look. My aged skin needed this. Lines are dismissed and the whole kit gives me a more youthful look. It just puts life into my dull older complexion. Haven’t been this pleased with a kit in awhile and to like everything in it, is a real bonus. Also like that there were 2 sample products in the box. More makeup lines need to do that.

I love the regular it foundation without illumination.

Didn't realize this was different. 

Returning kit since it showed wrinkles where I didn’t know I had them. I compared both foundations on my face and the lines disappeared with the regular foundation. 

I was shocked since without any makeup I don’t have those lines. Same thing happened with it’s undereye concealer. It came with a kit and it actually gave me a problem area I didn’t have. This I don’t need.

Btw I am 66 .

Glad that you like the TSV @Sweet_Serenity

 

The good price point and free shipping gave me the incentive to try the illumination. I love the original and have some concerns about the illumination given some of the reviews.

 

Decided to give it a try. My order arrived today.  Will test drive it tmrw

I ended up getting this TSV, too and liked it. This tube had no visible shimmer unless I look under my magnification mirror. My old tube you could see it a few feet away, so I threw out that tube. I'm glad for the change. I wonder if this varies batch to batch or if they had read past reviews and improved it? Anyone know?

This is my third tube and the first had the most shimmer of all. Weird. It's not my eyes going bad either, ha ha! The illumination concealer is my favorite because it is a bit lighter. I use light in the CC, but medium in the concealer (seems like they should relabel those). There was a lot of discussion on the forum when the Illumination concealer was launched (only bloggers that got it early had it) that shimmer doesn't go under the eye--but it had none! Haters are gonna hate. (Their under eye CC has it, if they still make it)

@StraytoStayodd, the 1st one I had was the tin man look in my car in the sun....terrible!

I adore shimmer and glow..a own many -  far too many haha and tried this years ago it didn't work like you did. Maybe they reformulated this CC Illumination? It was huge size on that TSV but I like buying many diff types so would never use that all up rarely do with what I have.

I do love their Illumination Eye - think mine is light.

I'll check it out the CC Illumination in person later.. a take-home sample and see how it goes.

Kevin Aucion's line has an illuminating foundation out, got small samples from Sephora. It was alright...a bit too much shimmer. I enjoy placing my glow if it's creme or powder or liquid lastly over my regular foundation. BUT in a rush the cc illumination would be great if not too shimmery like before with sparkles..yucky.

Glad you guys love it. I'm wanting to try that JNSQ lip serum now..Kitkat loves it!!
