I really wanted to like this product when I purchased it. It promises to brighten dull stressed skin and make it more luminous and glowing. It actually did give my skin a great glow and sheen, but unfortunately it also made me break out. It completely clogged my pores and you could actually see tons of blackheads forming. It was gross. So I ended up having to return the product and have been scared to try any similiar products due to the unpleasant effects. Maybe if you don't have sensitive/combination skin this product would work better.
