Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage
This is by far one of my favorite things. Great moisturizer, sunscreen, and a light, subtle shimmer without looking greasy. I get compliments on my skin all the time when I wear this. It evens out my skin without caking on the makeup, and makes it looks bright and fresh.

Gorgeous Skin!

Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage
What a great product!! It's a BB cream, illuminator, and tinted moisturizer all in one! I would probably never tried it but I decided to use my points for a sample - I was blown away with how gorgeous it made my skin look. Sun-kissed, glowing, and smooth.
Works great under make-up or a stand-alone.

Review 3 for Amazonian Clay BB Illuminating Moisturizer
Amazing Amazonian!
-05.16.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage, perfect amount of tint no matter your skin tone
I got this stuff originally in a VIB points perks, and ended up in love. This serum/moisturizer has just the right amount of tint, shimmer, and sheer coverage so that you can wear it alone or under foundation! I can't live without this now! My skin looks radiant and feels luxurious! It's a lilttle pricey, but well worth it! It's my go to for days that I don't feel like putting on a full face... and it's my go to for under by BareMinerals powder! Under the powder I use less, but it still creates such a beautiful result!

Review 4 for Amazonian Clay BB Illuminating Moisturizer
Smooth and Radiant
-05.14.13
Quick Take: awesome
I MUSt say- EVERY time I wear this my partner ALWAYS tells me how beautiful I look.
I tend to wear this if I want a quick version of makeup or if I am tan with no breakouts. I really love it. It gives a nice healthy glow without too much shimmer.
I had the earlier version of this product called Illuminating Serum. They just changed the name to BB because of the recent hype. It is still the same silky smooth, translucent product it was before.

Not awesome
-05.11.13
Got this in a kit, don't bother with the full size. Goes on oily but my skin still feels really dry after it soaks in. Even tried with primer under.

Perfect for dry skin!
-05.07.13
Quick Take: dewy, hyrating
I am using perception acne lotion which dries my face out like crazy! no lotion, primer, or bb creme seems to help. my makeup always looked flakey. I got this in a sample pack and wasnt going to try because it looked to shimmer when swatched. I tried it under one of my BB creams and it helped my flakey skin amazingly! I look dewy and healthy and my skin looks brought back to life! i will HAVE to buy the bigger size when i run out!

Review 8 for Amazonian Clay BB Illuminating Moisturizer
Little goes a long way
-05.06.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage, good for skin
Love this stuff. I mix a little less than a pea size amount into my drug store BB cream and it gives a glow boost that's wonderful and not oily. I'm not sure on the coverage by it's self, as I just bought it to boost my other cream. My sensitive skin seems to like it too!

Review 10 for Amazonian Clay BB Illuminating Moisturizer
If you have dry skin, this is great
-04.29.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer
I have dry, dull skin. This really brightens it up. But beware, if you have oily skin, this would probably be too much.

Dewy luminous finish
-04.17.13
Quick Take: easy to use
I like this product because it provides light cover and a moist look and feel. I a 49 and although my skin is not dry, I feel this gives my skin a youthful plumpness. Very natural look. Perfect for everyday.

Review 12 for Amazonian Clay BB Illuminating Moisturizer
BEST BB!
-04.11.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage, warm glow
I've sampled a few beauty balms and this is definitely my fave! It is very light but a little goes a long way. Does not clog up my pores and feels very luxurious on my skin. It gives my skin a warm glow-I love it!

Review 13 for Amazonian Clay BB Illuminating Moisturizer
Great but oily!
-04.03.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage
So, when I first bought this I was obsessed. It does everything it should and made me feel so pretty! Some mornings when I was being a bit lazy I would just put this on and be good to go because it's that great! However, after a week or two, the product became very oily. A yellow oil drips out every time I open the bottle now and gets everywhere. It's really gross. When I shake it up it's fine and works great, but it's just not ideal.

Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage
THIS STUFF IS AMAZING!!! I have been using this for about a month now and I have really noticed a difference in my skins tone and texture. It is more even and it has given me a natural glow with no makeup on. I have oily skin but this does not make it more oily like a lot of "creams" or makeup do. The simmer is a nice addition to it as well, since it reflects a little bit of light. I have found my go to BB cream.

OBSESSION
-03.15.13
Quick Take: light, fresh, easy
I am super super super super times 2983yq98010891290 obsessed with this product. It gives my skin a fresh, dewey look and with a sweep of powder and blush, my skin looks pretty incredible. It maintains a natural looking finish, so I don't look cakey or fake, but gives enough coverage for evenness. I can't say enough good things about it.

Changed my mind about it
-03.05.13
Quick Take: oily
When I first got it I really liked it, but soon after I realized that this product is no good. It is soooooooo greasy. When ever I put it on, oil comes out of it and drips everywhere making a mess.
Wish I could return it

Review 19 for Amazonian Clay BB Illuminating Moisturizer
Repackaging this as BB cream...Same thing
-03.01.13
I've noticed a few reviews that people wrote thinking they are receiving the wrong item. You are getting the right product. Tarte used to market this as an Illuminating Serum, but when BB creams became the new "fad" they realized it had all the properties of a BB cream, and are in the process of repackaging it. It is the same product--new packaging.

Review 20 for Amazonian Clay BB Illuminating Moisturizer
Got as a sample - will purchase
-02.27.13
Quick Take: soft shimmer, sheer coverage
I loved this - it is a light coverage and gives just the hint of a glow. If you don't want heavy coverage foundation and just want to brighten up your skin, I recommend this product.
