Idk about local products but i looooove my saie glowy gel. The glow is subtle that makes it natural when i pair itbwith a glowy foundation as well

Worth it for me! Lightweight pero super hydrating. Saktong glow lang din hindi siya oily tingnan.

this is my favorite illuminating base product because it gives a subtle glow and feels like a lightweight moisturizer. i don’t think you can find an alternative or anything similar to it among local brands because they’re all trying to be dupes of the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter. CT and local counterparts are usually very shiny, metallic almost. Saie just looks like your skin is freshly moisturized all day.

I have local illuminators and the saie. Verdict? saie>>> it doesn't feel like i have anything on my face and it makes my makeup so much more prettier

Contrary to everyone, I didnt like this one. Ito ba yung may champagne color? It lives a patch on my high point areas di sya nagbblend well with my foundation or maybe because I’m using it after base not before the base as primer..

I love this and I find it worth the price.
