Beautiful!
-05.11.13
Quick Take: luminous sheen, creamy, natural looking, odd ratio, nice shades
I got this product in moonlight, and it is absolutely gorgeous. The blush is easy to put on, you put a couple stokes on your cheeks and blend it in with your fingers for a nice flush. Then you put on the luminizer on the tops of you cheek bones (a little goes a LONG way!) I also use the luminizer for use on my collar bone or neck, for a special occasion. The colors are wonderful on my light-medium skin.
My only complaint is the weird ratio, which one of the reviewers before me mentioned. There is so much of the luminizer, and just a tiny bit of the blush. I will have to see how that ends up as I keep on using it, and see if I run out of blush long before the luminizer.

Great product!
-04.20.13
Quick Take: radiant, works like it says it does, easy to apply with a brush, worth the $$$
I bought this along with Tart blush and I love the glow it gives my skin. This guy there gave me a lesson on how to apply it because I think that certain products like this can be a bit intimidating. I apply it with a brush and it gives my skin the perfect highlights!

Odd product balance
-04.06.13
I loved the concept of this but felt there should have been more of the "color" part of the duo compared to how much "illuminator" contained in the product. Tarte should balance the product ratio so you don't feel that you will end up with a ton of illuminator once the color tip is used. Color was nice and blend able.

Quick Take: creamy, luminous sheen, natural looking
I bought this over a year ago and am still using it! I don't use it everyday, but I love it in the winter when my skin is a little dryer and the blush is creamy. TIP: I mix some of the luminizer (liquid part) with powder blush on the back of my hand. Then your favorite color is smooth and creamy, with a hint of golden glow. I do this a lot when I'm not using the blush.

WASTE OF MONEY!!
-02.14.13
Quick Take: not even close to any above description!
Please dont waste your money on this. I bought 1 in store & i was in a hurry so I trusted this idiot saying its really good. So after I used it (once) it was really no color at all & its a mess! I wish I can give NO STAR but that choice is not available. save your money. It makes your upper cheeks crusty looks like frozen wrinkles (white flakes)I just dont want to return it for it is a hassle.

Quick Take: luminous sheen, natural looking
i have this in moonlight and it is the product i've been waiting for since Guerlain discontinued my FAV pink radiance! this is a generous amount for the money, and is well worth it! not glittery AT ALL, just glowy and beautiful! the blush is just a bonus for me, and is also easily blended and the perfect blush of pink! i have light skin and colors tend to go orange on me, but NOT THIS! i definitely recommend this product!

Not so great
-11.14.12
Quick Take: hard to blend, streaks, gets tacky/dry to quickly
I got this today in Moonlight. When I tested it in the store, I didn't realise that the whole thing wasn't, well, the whole things, the blush is the round part at top and you have to unscrew the that to get to the luminiser in the tube below. Ok. so I get home and I tried it as a cheekbone highlight over top of Glisten, it was disappointing to say the least. First, I like to put my luminiser on my hand to warm it up and then use a brush to apply it. Little did I know, by the time I had applied the blush and went to use the luminiser, it had turned tacky, almost dry on the back of my hand, and no amount of rubbing would warm it up enough to use it again, so I decided to use it straight from the tube with a brush, no dice. So then I decided to use it with my fingers, by the time I applied it to one cheek then the other and went to blend it in, it as tacky again, and I could not blend it in, it just kinda sat there in streaks. I'll probably use the blush, but in all honesty, I'm thinking of returning it because I probably won't get much use out of the luminiser and with as big as the tube is, that seems to be the point of it. The colour seems like it would be very pretty if only I could get the dang thing to blend.

Subtle and Pretty
-11.11.12
Quick Take: luminous sheen, natural looking, absorbs quickly
I don't like wearing bronzer so I mix this in with my regular liquid foundation to give my skin a summer glow that is more subtle and natural. Then I apply the solid luminizer in the cap to my cheekbones, temples and bridge of my nose to emphasize my bone structure. Works well but dosen't supply a noticeable glow in fluorescent lighting. Apply while using sunlight or mixed lighting.

Not a lot of glow
-10.12.12
Quick Take: natural looking
I recently bought this because I had seen that youtube guru had been using it & it looked good on her but it just doesnt work on me, it glow at first then it just magically dissapears after I check in 2 hours. I wish it would really give me one of those flawless faces that models have.

Moonlight
-09.17.12
Moonlight was the only color that really showed up on my medium skin w/yellow undertones (asian skin.) This product didnt work for me for the following reasons:
-I noticed quite a few reviewers commented that this looked very natural. I can understand why, because the color seems to blend away, leaving a dewey shine....however, what is NOT natural for me is that while the color blends away, there's quite a bit of glitter left behind. Just think of a diluted high beam.
- The shade of the cream blush is nice (a nice, light pink). However, it was difficult to blend w/o wiping away the product (this was done after applying my Amazonian Clay foundation.) I was left with a streaky, creamy mess. Don't see it lasting for hours and hours, which is strange for the company that makes a cheekstain with incredible staying power.
- Like others have mentioned, the highlighter/blush ratio is severely off. I guess the good thing, is that after the blush has been used up, there is actually a second cap just for the lumininzer.

Quick Take: creamy, luminous sheen, natural looking
Love this product, but I will definitely run out of the blush before the highlighter. They need to increase the blush size. I love out the highlighter perks up the area in around my eyes. Thanks to Emily at Sephora in Madision, MS for the tips on using the highlighter. My makeup has never looked better! I use this with Tarte Maracuja Foundation & love it. I will definitely purchase this again. I just hope they don't quit making it!

Not Enough Cream Blush!
-08.28.12
Quick Take: creamy, luminous sheen, natural looking
I love this product and thought it went on very smoothly and blended well, giving a nice candlellit glow, but why would Tarte give you so little cream blush and so much highlighter???? Tarte - Please redesign the product! I will run out of the cream blush long before I have even a small amount of the highlighter in the tube used.

-08.13.12
I like the color and staying power of the blush, but just didn't use the highlighter. I love the blush part, but it is just such a small amount they give you in relation to the highlighter that I can't justify buying it again.

Good concept, not long lasting
-08.08.12
Quick Take: lacks color
The idea is great - a blush & highlighter in one tube. Both are really easy to use, but you have to be careful with the liquid highlighter because if you open the tube too fast, too much comes out. This product doesn't last at all - within an hour, it was already off my face, and as some have mentioned, it lacks color intensity. They definitely need to improve this.

Quick Take: a little pricey but worth it.
This product is really great. It gives your skin the look of a natural tan and also gives you a glowing appearance. The "candlelight" color is the best of the 3 shades in my opinion. It goes on smoothly and looks natural.

-06.05.12
I have received so many compliments on my skin since I have been using this, it really gives you that luminosity that looks like you have spent a lot of money buying the best skin care products. Love this! I am fair with light blond hair, so I can see that it might not show up on someone who is darker skinned.

Quick Take: better for younger tan skin
Not crazy about this product, really does nothing for my complexion. Too dark to use as an accent and blush color isn't really a blush. Will return for refund.
