worth the effort
I, like other reviewers, had a hard time finding the right shade for me. I've worn Bisque in the powder foundation for years, but recently lucked out and happened to be in a shop when the JI rep was there. She showed me that Warm Silk is the perfect powder foundation color for me, and then recommended BB3 in the Glow Time. Then she gave me an awesome tip that's changed everything for me---use the Warm Silk liquid minerals mixed with the Glow Time BB3. I squish one or two pumps of the liquid minerals on my thumb pad and one little dot of the Glow Time, mix them quickly w/ my foundation brush and swirl all around my face. It takes SO little time, blends beautifully and quickly---looks amazing AND lasts through vigourous workouts. I touch up if needed with my Amazing Base powder foundation, but I rarely need that. The liquid minerals is more of a serum/primer that helps the Glow Time blend perfectly and although it may sound like a bit of trouble, it is SO quick, easy and long-lasting.

Horrible
I received two sample packets of this bad and was excited to try after reading great reviews. I took the samples with me on vacation with no other foundations of BB creams as back up. Oh my oh my. The first time I tried this, if went on stiff and dry. The coverage is very full and I looked like a mime or a geisha girl of Michael Jackson. And the color is comparable to what I normally wear. This BB cream looked so cakey on my face that it looked and felt like stage makeup. For reference, I only used two drops from the sample packet. I was not impressed by it and had to go to a drugstore and buy a temporary foundation. My foundations and BB cremes are Chanel, Guerlain terracota foundation, 3lab BB, dior nude bb.

Not for African-American Skintones
The color tint to this product is very flat and it smooths over like paint. Its wasn't made in respect to those with different undertones, textures, etc. It's an awful product for the price. I wouldn't recommend it wholeheartedly, if there are alternatives that you can find to this product, by all means search. You won't find what your looking for here. Very disappointing.

BB Glowing!
I absolutely love this as my every day, all day foundation! This BB Cream leaves your face feeling so soft at the end of the day when you remove your makeup. I love that it offers a light, smooth application (I apply it with my fingers) and it leaves your skin looking and feeling so soft! The downside, and the reason I didn't give this product 5 stars, is that they really need to come up with a shade that is between the 5 and 7. I can't emphasize this more, because this is a shade too light for me, where the 7 is a shade too dark. So, I go lighter with the 5 and use a bronzer over my cheeks, chin, nose and forehead to allow for a slightly darker shade and a nice finished/polished look.

Great product but not my colors
If this had come in something a bit closer to my skin tone it would have been my perfect BB cream - hopefully that will happen in the future. I am MAC NW25 to 30 depending on season, Chanel BR 42 to 52. I tried this in 5; it made me look like a ghost although it wasn't yellow toned. I went to 7 which was a bit darker but very yellow toned and I looked jaundiced. However the product itself it great - excellent coverage for a BB cream. Went on smooth and not greasy or heavy. No offensive odor which I have found I dislike in other brands such as Clinique. The amount of product is great, but I have no need to mix two large tubes of this to get a color that still isn't quite right. My skin liked it too and felt good after using it. I am with other reviewers that say it would be helpful to add more shades, for me less yellow.

Love it!
I love this BB cream and let me count the ways:
* Great coverage with satin finish = covers red and No additional foundation/powder needed. For a "full" coverage, I use little bit of Kevyn Aucoin's Skin Enhancer as a concealer using my Beauty Blender.
* Mineral based
* 1.7 oz of product which is more than you get with most others. (better price per oz.)
* Sleek, tube packaging = no mess and great for traveling
* Easy application. Can be applied with a Beauty Blender/sponge, fingers, or foundation brush for different effect and finishes. Blends beautifully
However, one star shy from a perfect score for:
* Price - you get little more product than some others but still not cheap
* Low spf - I prefer min spf 30, so I still have to wear higher spf sunscreen underneath.
If you don't mind the two 'cons' this is a great product to try!
