Ingredients:
Thoughts: My initial reaction was the overall packaging was gorgeous. By the way, I have a sample size of 1.06 fl oz. Now that I looked at the website, the product in itself is gorgeous. It comes with some kind of application from the looks of the picture.
Doesn't it really look like honey? It feels like honey too which I will go into later.
Here's a closer look at the product. If you look closely, you can see little specks. It's specks of gold.

When it comes to scent, it does not smell like honey. I actually never noticed the scent. I decided to sniff the product at this moment while reviewing. It smells like lemon. While you're applying the product, you do not smell anything.
The product I received came in a tube. It's just sanitary safe. I'm not too sure about the real size product. It looks like there's something inside the container. I'm not too sure what type of application they have inside.
Here's a close-up of the product. It's a clear with a tint of honey color and specks of gold. When you apply the product, it goes on smoothly. You will not notice the specks of honey on your face. It's really smooth and sinks into your skin.

Overall, I actually like this product. First of all, it's easy to apply. You only need a nickel size amount for the whole face. I usually spread it with my middle finger and at the end, I pat it with my hand. The only issue I have is that it can be a little bit messy. When you grab honey with a spoon, it has that lingering at the end. This product does the same but not to the degree of honey. It's not much, but there's been times I see some lingering.

After you let it dry, it really protects your skin. It covered my pores especially on my nose. When I apply BB Cream, it looks nice and smooth. That's the one thing I look for in a primer. A primer that covers up my flaw skin and makes my skin look close to perfection.

The website claims that it will improve skin tone, elasticity, and improve discoloration. I cannot guarantee if that's true. For one thing, I do not wear makeup in daily basis. I only wear makeup on the weekends and when I go out. I do not wear makeup to work since all I see is walls around me. Since I don't wear makeup in daily basis, I don't know if the benefits work compared to someone who does. I do know it keeps the skin moist while relieving irritations. I have really dry skin with this weird California, winter weather. When I go to work, I notice irritation around my mouth and nose. My skin is so dry I have to keep applying moisturizer. When I wear makeup using this primer, my makeup goes on smooth and I don't feel any irritation throughout the day.

Pros:
* Gorgeous packaging.
* Cool concept; honey and gold.
* Hardly notice scent.
* Application is easy and smooth.
* Dries quickly.
* Covers pores.
* Smooth canvas; easy to apply makeup.
* Keeps skin moist while relieving irritations.

Cons:
* Hard to find in stores.
* Can get messy a bit.
* Smells like lemon.

Would repurchase: Yes.
