Good tint, good texture, and MINERAL sunscreen...I really like a mineral sunscreen and now again, I'm hearing about certain combinations of chemical sunscreens, previously considered safe, can form a carcinogenic substance when combined. ...Not Quite Moisturizing Enough for Winter.......I really like the texture as it feels very luxurious when you put it on. As winter is now upon us I have come to realize that this foundation is not moisturizing enough and i find myself using a separate moisturizer, which isn't all that surprising considering the frigid and dry climate associated with Chicago winters.

Surprised that it had a tiny since most zinc sunscreens or physical sunscreens are white. Love that it has a tint and doesn’t leave a white cast on your face. ...My only complaint is that it stays fairly greasy, which isn’t so bad if you live in a cold dry place or you have dry skin.
