I wanted this to be successful
I wanted this to be successful. My first order was darker than I needed, and so I returned it and a lighter shade was sent relatively promptly. In both cases the product was too thick to come out of the pump--I had to insert an unbent paper clip and stir it up before it would pump. Those who say a little amount is all you need are right. The smallest dab on a sponge is how to start. But try and try, I just couldn't apply it without being able to see that I had on makeup. As much as I would like to cover a few sun spots and dark circles, it just didn't look natural enough to me. The lightest skin tone still had more color than I do. Men whose skin tone matches the product should be successful; I was not. A future offering might be a sampler of dabs of each shade to try, as online men's cologne are doing now (Mistral, for example). This could give a potential buyer a more successful match and save the company hassles with returns for customers who aren't satisfied.

Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed review — we really appreciate it, and we’re genuinely sorry it didn’t end up being a good match for you. We hear you on a few key points: the product feeling too thick to pump in your case, the challenge of getting it to look truly natural on your skin, and the lightest shade still reading warmer/darker than your complexion. That’s not the experience we want for anyone, even when application technique is right. Your suggestion about offering a **sampler/shade test set** is excellent — it would make shade matching much easier and reduce the hassle of returns. We’re sharing this feedback with our product team. If you’re open to it, feel free to message us with your order details — we’d be happy to see if there’s anything we can do to help, and we appreciate you giving it a fair shot.
