ILIA - The Base Face Milk Essence + Lightweight Moisturizer | Non-Toxic, Vegan, Cruelty-Free, Clean Makeup (Full Size, 3.4 fl oz | 100 ml)

I’ve been using ILIA The Base Face Milk Toner for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed. First of all, I love that it's nontoxic and vegan—it feels good knowing I'm putting something clean, conscious, and quality on my skin. The texture is super lightweight & airy. My skin is more hydrated and dewy than I’ve ever seen it. Over time, I’ve noticed my complexion looking more even and refreshed. It's a bit expensive for a toner, however an entire bottle lasts me longer than a month and my skin thanks me for it. My recommendation is to use a dime sized amount when applying. I have definitely overused and had problems applying my foundation after. I apply it right after cleansing, and it gives me an instant moisture boost and healthy glow before layering with sunscreen and foundation. It’s definitely become a staple in my routine!

this moisturizer feels so nice...lightweight...perfect for the humid southern summers

This product is incredible — exactly what I was looking for in a daily moisturizer and essence in one. The texture is silky and lightweight, yet it gives my skin deep, lasting hydration without feeling greasy or heavy. It layers beautifully under makeup and keeps my skin looking fresh and dewy all day. I love that it’s clean, vegan, and cruelty-free — you can really tell the formula was made with care. My skin feels smoother, calmer, and more balanced since I started using it. It’s become a non-negotiable step in my skincare routine. Highly recommend for anyone wanting that healthy, lit-from-within glow!

A non-greasy lightweight moisturizer. Works perfectly as a base under Ilia’s tint serum. As moisturizing as the serum is, I always felt I needed a little more moisture than the serum alone but every other moisturizer I tried was too thick, oily, or sticky to use with it. This works great and allows smooth application of the serum without added wetness. This moisturizer also is a nice comfortable layer at bedtime and doesn’t clog my pores (my skin is combination and acne prone). The moisturizer has an extremely faint, lovely clean scent which doesn’t linger. Not perfumey at all- I’m highly allergic to most scents. Pricey but a little goes a long way so it’ll last a long time. I tried a travel bottle for a couple of days and ended up purchasing the full size and stashed the travel one away for my next trip.

Love this face milk and how it feels on my skin. However, very expensive and didn’t make much of a difference in my skin. Feels great but can live without.
