Elemis pro radiance illuminating flash balm

Elemis pro radiance illuminating flash balm - does anyone use this please? I have tubes of it, 15ml, 30ml, 50ml, and I think I must be using it wrong. I use it all over my face on top of my moisturiser, as an illuminator or primer. But even a tiny bit seems to leave my face sticky and I have to wait ages for it to absorb before I put foundation on. So my morning routine takes just too long for my liking. The smell isn’t quite to my taste either!

But it seems to be a popular product, so am I using it wrong? Is there any way of repurposing it so that I get through my many tubes a bit quicker? Using a tiny dab even every day would mean that I have about four years worth of product here!

I really like it and love the smell so might not be much help, but if I use it I skip moisturiser and just put over spf. Perhaps try mixing a drop in with your foundation instead of underneath, for a glowy look.

Thanks - I will give it a go that way. Nothing to lose!

I used to use it and used it in the same way as clarins beauty flash balm - so apply it and put my makeup on straight on top without waiting.
