THINGS TO RAVE ABOUT
  • Refreshing: When applying this tinted moisturizer, you feel as if you were blending in a cooling, creamy, and soothing facial moisturizer with a touch of clean, spring fragrance. The lightweight, breathable finish feels as if you were not wearing any makeup whatsoever, staying far away from a masky, thick feel.
  • Concealing: The sheer tint does provide a layer of uniform color to the skin, subtly evening out the overall skin tone and any redness.
  • Glowy Finish: The moisturizing consistency dampens skin, leaving a dewy, slick appearance and provide shimmery micro-particles that faintly brighten and illuminate the skin.

THINGS TO RANT ABOUT
  • Comedegenic: Many notorious comedegenic (acne-aggravating) ingredients are listed, such as Cetearyl Alcohol, Dimethicone, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Polyglyceryl-4 Isostearate, and Carbomer. My skin luckily did not produce any negative reactions, but other's might, for everyone's skin is different.
  • Packaging Leaks: When you snap the cap back onto the tube to close the product, the cap doesn't fit perfectly, allowing air to creep into the tube and let the product leak out. The area around the applicator squeezer does get very sticky and messy, becoming unpleasant and unhygienic.

IS IT FOR YOU?
Yes, if your skin is dry and irritated, requiring a gently soothing and slightly tinted aid. No, if your skin type is very prone to breakouts or necessitates heavy, thick concealing for blemishes.

RATINGS

  1. I've been casually looking for a good tinted moisturizer for years. I never liked thick foundations because they covered up my freckles and never looked smooth. I've been using bare minerals in fairly light, but wanted to switch out of a powder. I tried tons--everything from covergirl to clinique--and I read your review and decided to give this product a try. I got the lightest shade (fair) and it is great! I don't like how other companies try to warm up lighter shades, because most fair skin people have cool tones, so then it's orange and awkward. This product works for my cool undertones, feels good, and even looks good when I study it in bright daylight in the car mirror, haha! totally recommend it, especially since it's inexpensive.

  14. Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4
    year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
    There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
