I love this beauty balm! It is the perfect match for my fair skin tone. What I love about the Illuminating Beauty Balm is that while it gives you a dewy glow it doesn't make you shimmer or sparkle, so it can be used on its own if you want a makeup free day or you’re just too rushed. I have tried it with and without moisturiser underneath, and I found it quite moisturising, so unless your skin is on the dry side you don’t really need to add moisturiser. It also didn't make my skin oily. It has great staying power too. In my opinion this beauty balm ticks the boxes when it comes to doing what a BB cream should do.
