Available in two shades — Rosa for fair complexions and Ambra for darker skin tones — this multitasking product can be used as a primer, highlighter or on it’s own as a moisturizer. Made with hyaluronic acid, it helps keep skin hydrated for up to 24 hours and works to blur out imperfections for a naturally filtered effect.
