Finally found a mineral sunscreen SPF 30 that is a tinted moisturizer.  It is by Paula's Choice and most importantly for me:

             (1) it doesn't burn the eyes as the day progresses 

                    (2) it works well with my concealer and Balance & Glo powder

             (3) it and my makeup looks great at end of day.

Hope that helps your search !

BloomEffects SPF50 sunscreen serum.  Bought this here at the Q, although when first introduced is was $50

It is not matte nor intended to be.  It has a natural finish and as I am oily, it does not exascerbate it.  It is seamless under any foundation or tinted moisturizer and I can feel good about using it as it is mineral and also has skincare benefits.  Check it out - pricey but it serves me well.

Wow, finally another person who likes MDSolarSciences Sunblock!

I always suggest this but I use and love the spf 30 tinted one and once I found it, close to 10 years ago my search was over, for the most part.

I love it! It's kind of mousse-like and gives a perfected, primer type finish. So much so that I use this in place of foundation. Not heavy,sticky, greasy or gross just lovely. I'm so fearful it will someday be discontinued because I'd be sunblock lost without it, that's how much I love it. haha

Become a cave dweller like me and don't worry about stinking sunscreen (g)

Just take lots of D3.

What do you do when you walk your dog? @monicakm 

[monicakm]

I don't walk my dogs.  We live in the country and have acreage.   Part of it is fenced in a chainlink fence.  They either go out back or are tethered together on a 40ft lightweight cable that is on a swivel anchor in the front yard.  They have a full 40 foot radius.  Plus they have cots on the front porch (and in the house).  I'm not afraid of the very very little sun I actually get.

@fitfuninformed I use this but feel like I need to use one of my lighter moisturizers underneath (like a water cream). The first time I used it I got a compliment on my skin. It leaves a lovely finish.

@GingerHead I often have a couple of different sunscreens open (or I should say I keep trying different ones) but I do like to keep the MDSolarsciences on hand (right now I'm using this and Lessman's Sole).  I generally prefer a higher SPF but sometime I do want to try the tinted version.  So good to know you highly recommend that one!

@sueinsf 

It's just fun to see someone else recommend my favorite sunscreen brand. haha

Yes, if you like the untinted one (which I also like and also bought and stocked up on from Costco along with the tinted one when it was sold there) then you will like the tinted one. I'm a fair/light complected redhead and the tint blends in great. I think it would blend into a lot of different complexions.

If you try it let us know how you like it....
