Here is my honest review:
I love this product! It’s a clean, matte/dewy finish that makes you feel good. It’s a liquid formula that doesn’t feel like your have a mask over your skin, and it leaves the prettiest of finishes! It comes in a great quantity, and the bottle is even cute. As someone with oily skin, this product did not make my skin look oily, but evened out. I very much recommend this product :)

Felt like chalk
I wish this product worked for me because it was everything I wanted in a tint. When I put it on my face, it immediately turned into a weird chalky texture that was hard to spread. I'm not sure if it's because of my skin type or the skincare I use before makeup. This one didn't work out for me :(
