There is no other foundation to compare.....I used to wear the old version
I had used the old version for years and had a flawless complexion all day. I was so heartbroken when the product was discontinued. When I initially tried to order the this version, I was sent 2 primers, instead of one primer and one GT Pro. For some reason, I tried a few other really popular premium brands that are out now. My daughter is a makeup artist and beauty advisor at Sephora and she really helped me test so many of the newer brands and the tried and true. There is no comparison to Jane Iredale. This product (even when I have omitted my primer) lays better, stays better than any of the brands I tried. A little of this product goes a long way. As for the color, I was a little confused between colors. I had read from other reviews that if you wore the previous version, then to go down lighter a shade. So, I picked up GT4. I was using BB5. I am very pleased with my color choice.

Disappointed in the new formula
I have worn this BB cream for years. I just ran out and ordered the same one I always use. The color was way too dark. Made he look orange. It was dry and hard to apply. I understand they changed the formula but maybe give a heads up when you order that the colors are not even close. I kept trying to make it work but ultimately Jane Iredale has lost another customer. I have moved on and bought another brand’s foundation.

One of my favorite foundations
This foundation is light yet gives a coverage that is not heavy and does not give the appearance of too much makeup on. The other nice thing is that it only takes a peas sized amount to do entire face. I have used now for 5 years and all because of the great quality of the product

Different Formula - Drying & Dark
I purchased this product due to how much I loved the past formula about two years ago. I did not expect the formula to be totally different. I ordered G1 the lightest shade because I have very fair, cool tone skin. This bb cream gives a slight orange tint to my skin. I am sad that the formula has changed! Please bring back the old one! I am going to try out the other BB cream with 10SPF because it has better reviews!

Miss older formula
I purchased this in GT1 and GT3–my previous color was BB3 with BB1 as a highlighter.First off, GT3 is warmer and darker than BB3 was. I suggest going lighter if you’re game for this product. Otherwise still a very full coverage color correcting formulation; however, unlike the previous formula which seemingly offered better hydration, this new product sucked the moisture right out of my face…I have Sahara-dry skin to be clear, and Jane Iredale used to be my go-to. I personally prefer light-to-medium (buildable) coverage, and unless you mix your JI primer and BB cream together then apply it, this foundation is FULL-full coverage.But I don’t recall it being so drying. I believe (don’t quote me on this) it moved up 10 SPF in its formula, and that may be what’s causing it to look and feel chalky on my face; but the previous formulation was so complimentary to me, yet this one isn’t.For some background: I’m Caucasian, 35, and had a hysterectomy with ovarian failure at 29. My hair is 80% white and gray, but my skin (outside of its dryness) looks like a sun-avoiding 30-year-old’s. With all that context, I have very slight creasing when I smile big around my eyes, and very slight expression lines with movement. No plastic surgery or injections of any kind.My point in sharing all that is: I look exponentially older with this makeup… the previous formula didn’t age me at all, but this one sticks in and exaggerates fine lines leaving lines of makeup wherever you smile or move your face.Overall, I’m disappointed that the formula was changed. I get the packaging update, but why change something that was working?? I guess it maybe wasn’t for everyone…My final thoughts: Avoid if you have dry skin and/or you’re over 35; or if you simply don’t want to look older than what you are.I understand some people would prefer fuller coverage to skin-like texture, but as someone who wears foundation strictly to color-correct redness from rosacea and a mast cell condition, this product is too heavy, cakey; and instead of oxidizing on the skin, it becomes chalky as the day wears on.(To note, the products I used beneath it were: Rosewater to wipe face off / tone in the AM; Avène Antirougeurs Fort cream (redness-reducing), Avène Tolerance Emulsion Cream; oil mixture of 40% carrot seed oil, 40% raspberry seed oil, 10% evening primrose oil, 10% vegetable glycerin; Good Molecules Priming Moisturizing. Then mixed 50/50 JI Brightening Primer (the Illuminating one broke me out, sadly) and GT3, and used GT1 as a highlighter lightly down the center of my face.)

Love this BB Cream!
I have been using Jane Iredale for years. So happy I stumbled upon this BB Cream. It is full coverage and takes all the redness out of my skin. For days I want less coverage I mix a dab into my facial oil. A little goes a long way and the tube lasts and lasts. Highly Recommend!

Great product!
I was so disappointed when I couldn't find my original BB cream. I was afraid I wasn't going to like this new Glow Time Pro product. Let me set your mind at ease. This is a great substitution in an already phenomenal product line. A couple of things you need to be aware of. First, it is less product for the same price. (.50ml/1.7 fl oz for the original vs .40 ml/1.35 fl oz for the new one.) Second, the shades are different so you will probably need to go lighter in the new line. I was a BB3 in the original and had to go with G2 in the new one. Also, the Glow Time Pro has more of a matte finish and it lasts all day. I also use less product now. A little goes a very long way. All in all I a very pleased with the Glow Time Pro. I have used Jane Iredale for years and can't imagine using anything else on my face.

Horrible
I’ve worn this for years. They changed the formula & the colors are nothing like they were. I got the color recommended to me (in the new number system). It’s awful. Super orange. Nowhere near my skin tone. Makes me sad bc I loved the old formula foundation.
