Not too long ago I was covering a novel beauty applicator when the presenter wanted to demo the product on my face. He selected Hourglass Illusion Hyaluronic Skin Tint ($55, sold at Sephora) as the foundation to use with the sponge device. That morning I used a popular CC cream but apparently it wasn’t doing me any justice in the coverage department as the expert stated as my redness/rosacea was quite noticeable that day.
 
Simply put, the Hourglass Illusion Hyaluronic Skin Tint was transformational; the expert application also assisted. This superior foundation employs advanced technology to promote the appearance of a smoother, firmer and more youthful complexion. Fortified with Hourglass’ Hyaluronan Complex, Illusion plumps fine lines and wrinkles, tightens sagging skin, and delivers an unbelievably luminous glow. UVA/UVB SPF 15 helps protect skin from the sun. Available in 12 shades – I used Nude, a light/medium with neutral undertones.
 
This product is ideal with a foundation brush or sponge application. Coverage is medium and it is lightly scented with a warm vanilla/coconut fragrance. It was recently repacked to be in a tube, according to the company. Pearlescent pigments infuse the complexion with a luminous glow. I now use it daily!
