I use Complexion Rescue for the days I don’t have time to do full face make up. I can quickly apply it for a fresh and natural look with a little coverage. I usually just apply with my fingers tips but you will get more coverage if you apply with a brush or beauty blender. I find this product hydrating for my skin and feels light weight too.
I wouldn’t say it was my favourite but I have purchased it twice now and probably will again. I can’t seem to get the perfect shade yet for my skin but it’s a good one to have for those days you need to slap something on your face quickly. 💛

I am in my late 30's/early 40's with dry, medium tone skin and brown eyes. My hair is dark brown, processed with normal texture.
This is my go to daily face cream, it gives a great bronzed look with a light coverage that is perfect for days where I don’t want to wear make up but not acceptable to go to work looking like I’m from the after life. Looks slightly shiny when first applied but after a minute or so it dries into a gorgeous glowy effect. I literally apply it with my fingers as I’m rushing out of the house so no need to faff on with brushes etc.

This is gives really good coverage and doesn't cake. It is easy to blend and doesn't dry out my skin. The SPF is a bonus as well.
My only issue is that it leaves your skin quite shiny and powder appears to show texture when using it on top of this.

I really love this product for when I can't be arsed with make up. Like if im just mooching around the house at the weekend with my partner but I still don't want to spend the day looking heroin-chic, I can whip this on and look like i'm not actually death reincarnate. Whooo. I give it 4 cause I only give 5's to things that are like out of this world good, this is just really really good. Which is still pretty bloody good.

Love this product. I wear shade Ginger which is perfect colour match. A 30ml tube lasts me 3 months with daily usage. Do need to layer more though now that we are in Autumn and not sure if I’ll buy a more full coverage foundation when I have finished this tube.

Having suffered with acne I never thought I would use a tinted moisturiser,this is AMAZING!A small drop goes a long way and blends so easily just like a moisturiser would whilst offering a good coverage and enabling the skin to breath! Such a natural finish perfect for the summer months and offering hydration in the winter ! I do recommend using a brush or a Beauty blender if you want a more fuller coverage which I do usually want, and easy to layer up without looking cakey! Gives a beautiful dewy glow, yet never looks oily and lasts a good 6-8 hours ! A lot of tinted moisturisers can feel greasy and sticky but this one is really lovely and remains fresh and light !Although it is more on the pricier side I genuinely believe my skin benefits from this product so much , feeling hydrated and plump and just overall a healthy glow ! 10000% recommend this !!!!

I am in my late teens/early 20's with acne/problem, brown tone skin and hazel eyes. My hair is light brown, oily with normal texture.
Initially I applied this with my fingers and got zero coverage but once I applied with a brush it was fab. Light to possibly almost medium coverage, natural skin like finish and lasts well. Easy to whack on and get out the door. Also great for my running days with the extra spf.

I am in my late 30's/early 40's with normal, light tone skin and green eyes. My hair is blonde, normal with fine texture.
I bought this a couple of years ago. I have regularly worn this. I even take it away on holiday with me.
It provides great coverage, it also provides great ingredients for my skin too.
I have been known to wear this everyday for a week. For a BB cream this gives great medium coverage.
I adore this and will continue to buy.

I was an avid user of laura geller balance and brighten (medium ) and bare minerals original foundation( medium beige) .I decided to give this a go and i love it !!! My skin has never felt and looked so good and i can use either natural or wheat as it is very forgiving .I keep my routine the same - moisturise ,prime then foundation .I personally prefer a medium to full coverage so i use a dusting of original foundation or balance and brighten over the top of complexion rescue that gives me the coverage i need .I keep getting told “your makeup is lovely today or “you have lovely skin”.It is a bit pricey but im a firm believer in you get what you pay for and i gave now found my forever foundation ..love ,love ,love it !!!!

This lightweight tinted gel cream moisturiser is perfect for everyday & provides enough coverage. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone looking for a medium-full coverage as it’s a tinted moisturiser. I wear the shade ‘ginger’ (reference MAC NC30). It lasts up to about 7-8 hours on the skin which is great 👍🏼 it gives a really nice glow but it’s not too dewy to the point you look oily! I always powder my face with the Laura Mercier loose powder & im good to go! Great buy!
