I can see people applying a small amount to avoid looking overly dewy and thinking they’re protecting their skin from UV rays when they’re actually leaving their skin under protected.Not buildable unless you want your skin to look and feel greasy.Multi-tasking of skincare + tint + sunscreen.The pump is so difficult to use unless you flip the bottle upside and push it down at that angle. I have to say I really dislike the packaging. Not exactly my favorite look during the day, but I can see how some people who obsess over the glow effect might like it. You’re basically getting the glazed donut look that you would get after doing your nighttime skincare routine. I have to say I do like the sheer factor, because it allows your skin to look like your skin just enhanced. The tint is very sheer and there is no coverage, though there’s a subtle blurring effect. Even with my dry skin, I don’t love it.ĭon’t expect coverage with this product. While dry skin types may enjoy the new ILIA sunscreen serum, I feel like it would be too greasy for oily and acne-prone skin types. There is no added scent other than the natural result of the ingredients.

ILIA C Beyond Triple Serum SPF 40 is designed to streamline your skincare, so it theoretically replaces your Vitamin C serum, tinted moisturizer, and sunscreen. It’s thinner in consistency than the ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 but definitely oilier. It feels and applies like an oil serum would. I bought C Beyond Triple Serum thinking it would be an aloe leaf juice based serum because they lead with “waterless serum.” ILIA C Beyond Triple Serum is an oil-based serum. It comes in 3 sheer shades, Light, Medium and Deep. Beyond C Triple Serum combines active levels of 10 percent vitamin C, niacinamide and broad-spectrum zinc oxide SPF 40 to protect skin against UVA and UVB rays. ILIA’s newest makeup innovation is a waterless product that acts as a Vitamin C serum, sunscreen and makeup product simultaneously.

But, all ILIA formulas are cruelty-free and gluten-free, and are made without talc, parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, mineral oil, synthetic fragrance, BHA/BHT, propylene glycol, PEG’s, D4, D5, D6 and chemical screens. You will find synthetics included in all of ILIA’s products, including dimethicone in some of their face products. The term “clean beauty” gets thrown around so much, making it difficult for people to understand which makeup brands are truly clean and organic versus the brands that just fit within the very wide umbrella of clean beauty. One more thing to note as I do try to make sure you’re aware of all the info: ILIA is no longer an all natural or organic makeup brand. One of my very first Instagram posts was the ILIA lipstick over seven years ago! Check out the 5 Best Natural Foundations that includes ILIA here. Everyone has different tastes, preferences and skin types. And keep in mind that this post is my personal opinion of what the best ILIA Beauty products are.

In my opinion, the best ILIA products are the True Skin Serum Foundation, ILIA concealer, all their lip products including Multi-Stick Cream Blush Lip Tint and (if you’re new to clean beauty) ILIA mascara. ILIA is a luxe brand, so the price range is around $30-$70. ILIA makeup is made in the US with the exception of a couple products being made in Italy.

Originally born in Vancouver where founder Sasha is from, ILIA is currently based in California. Read on for the best and worst ILIA products in my ILIA makeup review. I recently tried the new ILIA C Beyond Triple Serum SPF 40 and am sharing my first impressions review. Even though ILIA’s makeup is no longer organic, I still enjoy some of their products. Today, ILIA creates skincare-forward clean makeup that’s innovative and sophisticated. In 2022 ILIA Beauty was acquired by a major corporation, Clarins. ILIA started off a decade ago as an all-natural and organic makeup brand, but later switched to include synthetics so they could improve product performance and appeal to the masses. I’ve used ILIA for almost ten years and am sharing the best ILIA products (and worst)! Started by Canadian entrepreneur Sasha Plasvic, ILIA is a wildly popular clean makeup brand sold everywhere from Sephora to Nordstrom.
