- VB Ultimate Tone-Up Cream (1.7 Fl. Oz.) - Ideal Makeup Primer, Hydrating Face Moisturizer with Niacinamide and Glutathione, Anti-Wrinkle, Reduce Fine Lines

I absolutely love this product! There is no coverage at all so if you are looking for coverage this is not a product to use. But it is amazing if you want lighter and brighter skin! I am very pale and have tried many foundations, BB, CC creams and cushions and none match my skintone. Now I wear only this because it does not give me an unwanted color on my face and it is so natural looking! Although it may not cover my freckles and all of the redness (it does help reduce slight redness from my face) on my face, I feel content that my skin looks bright and beautiful. If you have a darker skintone it may make your face slightly white so I would suggest to apply on your neck area. Overall though I highly recommend, especially if you want something that looks natural, not cakey, light weight and something to just brighten your face (

So I bought this out of curiosity about a year ago and didn't really like it much on first impression. If you're looking for a make up primer, there are cheaper primers that give up the tone-up effect, and if you're looking for a stand-alone foundation, this isn't it, as the coverage is extremely sheer. I finally found a use for it when I moved in with my boyfriend and no longer wanted to spend all day in a full face of foundation. It's great for giving your skin that even glow with a slight tone-up that lightens up darker areas of the face. Other tone-up creams made my face look flat, like I was missing a few steps of my make up routine, namely contour, but this just made me look put together enough where all I needed was eyebrows and mascara to look done up but still natural and 'no make up'.

Is good to protect you from sun but later you have dry face

I've seen this online an decided to get it for days when I don't want to wear foundation. The formula is great, its thin yet moisturizing but doesn't feel heavy. In terms of whitening, it brightens up the skin a fair amount depending on how much you use. I like this much better than other tone up creams I've tried because they tend to feel chalky and heavy/drying on the skin, but this feels like a light lotion. The tone up effect also lasts all day.

When I came upon this product, I thought there is now way this isnt some type of scam where its just your typical moisturizer with spf that leaves a whitecast and marketed as a "vanish cream"... I was so sure all the positive reviews were just placebo and that it was meant to be subtle so people thought it worked when it didn't. So I decided to test it out by taking pictures in the same room, in the same spot under natural light before/after using this cream and omg... it actually works! If you have really severe discoloration or acne marks/hyperpigmentation then dont expect a miracle, this isnt foundation, but my main issue was my under eye darkness and I was amazed to notice that it reduced it quite a bit! Again, this isnt foundation so don't expect it to completely get rid of those circles but it looks 3x better than without the cream! Highly recommend.

Does not work as advertised

Really liking this product! I would recommend using light skincare products under this because it applies better on matte skin. I hated how foundation oxidizes on my skin and I end up looking darker than my neck color. This one really brightens up your complexion and covers up pores really well. I have acne prone skin and did not break out from this. Will purchase again!

I liked the velvety finish and found it good to use when going for a no make up look. It's handy if you want your skin to look a shade brighter and more refreshed.
