Rated 5 out of 5 by Sylwia B from So pleased I bought it I hesitated before purchasing Skin illusion as the first reviews were so different. However, as my other Clarins foundation became too "pale" in late summer and I tried SI No110 Honey I decided to buy it. I was happy after the first day. I went away to a warm country and was pleased find that my new foundation lasted all day, no trouble. It covered my temporary discolouration well but since it's light my face still looks natural. That particular colour suits me well, too. Pump or dripper...it doesn't bother me really. Overall I'm a happy customer so thank you Clarins.

Rated 1 out of 5 by catch23 from So disappointed Finally thought I'd found my forever foundation with 108 Sand Skin Illusion, and now you've changed the formula. I presume you know it's different and that many people will return it, which is why you ship it with a tester. This is a different product, the texture is not the same and it's not a colour match: more orange. And what's with the dropper? Big potential for spillage! Pump is much better. No I have to walk a mile there and back with two small kids to return it to the DPD depot, or do a slightly shorter walk to the post office and then I pay the postage. Meanwhile I have no foundation!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Beautyaddict21 from Great foundation I tried a sample of Skin Illusion and really loved it. The shade was an absolutely perfect match for me and I find it easy to build coverage, whilst not entirely masking my skin. It gives a lovely glowing finish and lasted better than I expected It to on my oily skin.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Titch from skin illusion foundation I have been using "True Radiance" foundation and loved it. Was devastated to learn that it is no longer available and am really fed up with products being discontinued. Tried the new Skin Illusion, and was really disappointed. It goes on really patchily and does not last. There is no other Clarins foundation available now for my skin type so I am a very dissatisfied customer indeed. Sorry but you need to consider what your customers really like and are used to and not keep changing products and "improving" products.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anfa from Loved the product. Hate the packaging. I have been using this for a number of years and recently the bottle has changed to a dropper. I HATE IT!! When you take the dropper out of the bottle there is product dripping from the end of the nozzle and applying to face is messy and definitely more difficult than previous packaging. Please can we have the old one back. I still love the foundation and don't want to change to another product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by maria15 from Brilliant foundation Tried the tester of this and enjoyed it so much I had to go out and buy the bottle, I've been wearing a tinted moisturiser all summer so wasn't expecting to purchase a foundation anytime soon but fell in love with this one. It's a really good buildable coverage depending on how much you want to wear on the day and I've found it lasts

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anadin from Try it for yourself - it's fabulous! I had been using the previous formula of Skin Illusion, and wasn't pleased to see that Clarins had changed it, and that the reviews weren't good. I was all set to look around for a new foundation, but I decided to take Clarins up on their offer of buying a couple of shades along with a sample of each to try. This could be important because there are a wider selection of shades in this new formula...as it turned out, I was Ivory before, and I'm still Ivory! But it did allow me to see for myself what the new formula is like. Some reviewers haven't liked it, but I LOVE it. I honestly feel that it's a big improvement on the previous version. I moisturize WELL (dry skin) and prime, and previously felt that the foundation was slipping off my skin a bit, and that I needed to wait half an hour for it to set before applying other makeup. But the new formula goes on BEAUTIFULLY, the coverage is really buildable, but never heavy. I finally have a foundation that makes my skin look like better skin! It sets super fast. My super-sensitive dry skin is happy with it. It doesn't settle in my 45 year old creases and wrinkles. I actually look forward to putting it on in the morning. Great job, Clarins!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anam from Loved the finish I used it for the first time and was really impressed by the finish look. Definitely would suggest for lighter coverage that looks like natural flawless skin finish. Its not a 24 hour wear but for a daily use its just a perfect choice.
