It's light, spreads easily, and doesn't have a white sheen.
KSKaramMD Skin1 month agoLight, easy to spread, and no white sheen, that's the sunscreen trifecta right there! We're so glad you're loving it, thank you so much for sharing this with us!
- MBmonica b.Verified Buyer2 months agoRated 5 out of 5 starsgreat sunscreen
another great product. broad spectrum production without the nauseating "aroma" or heavy texture of most sunscreens. I love the sheer sunscreen, the five-star review only applies to the sheer version. Not liking the the tinted product - it is pasty and thick
KSKaramMD Skin2 months agoHi Monica! Thank you so much for this honest feedback, we really appreciate it.
We're so glad the sheer sunscreen has been such a hit for you, no heavy texture or overpowering scent is exactly what we aim for with that formula. Thank you also for sharing your thoughts on the tinted version, we'll be sure to pass that along to our team.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience with us!

All FAQsWhat’s the concentration of retinol in Illuminate?
The retinol in Illuminate was never meant as a stand alone ingredient, it is just one of over a dozen active ingredients used for brightening and improving uneven skin tone. The formula is a cutting edge product that produces results but has to be tolerated for all skin types and textures even for sensitive skin; therefore the concentration of the retinol has had to be carefully modulated to meet these specifications. The retinol comes in a form of a patented complex designed to maximize absorption and efficacy. While traditional Retinol products are measured with specific percentage concentrations, Illuminate can't really be measured in the same way. This formula is unique and assigning a specific concentration percentage would be misleading as it's not an apples to apples comparison to other products on the market.
Can I use retinol if I have sensitive skin?
Dr. Karam made it his mission to incorporate a moderated dose of active retinol in his hero product, Illuminate, to ensure that all skin types could reap the multitude of benefits without concerns of irritation. Along with aloe and sodium hyaluronate, Illuminate boasts a patented lipid complex blend that aids in soothing and hydrating the skin.
What makes Illuminate different from a moisturizer?
Illuminate is much more than your standard “moisturizer.” It was formulated to address various signs of aging skin - dryness, uneven skin tone, firmness, decrease the appearance of lines, wrinkles, smooth texture, brightening and radiance. While Illuminate does contain moisturizing and hydrating ingredients, its primary function is anti-aging.
