  •  A little goes a long way with this product... 45ml is a good quantity provided coz you only need a little at specific ares to highlight and give a glowy appearance. I bought this about 2 years ago and I still have loads of it left!(which will probably expire before I use it!)
  • It can be mixed with foundation too... But applying it all over the face gives oily looking results!!! Yikes! To make matters worse I have oily skin and this way it makes me look More OILY than Glowy.... I find better results when it is applied SPARINGLY on key areas which you want to highlight - like cheekbones, browbone etc. 
  • It has no annoying shimmery, 'disco' particles
  • A dispensing pump is hygenic
Nay's
  • Expensive at 750/- 
  • Now they have the powder version of this too available which will  perhaps be better for oily-skinnies like me! However I like the colorstay mineral finishing powder much better than this (Review HERE)
  • I think unless you are using this illuminator on hands and body etc also regularly - this size is a little TOO big for 1 person - I wish they decreased the size which will make it more affordable !
The Last Word:
 I think this would be more suitable for dry skinned gals provided you use such things a lot... The high cost factor doesn't help either!
I have found that the same effect can be achieved for much less by using Oriflame Peach me Perfect skin glow (Rs 279/- Review coming soon!)
