@Sugipine powders are good for touch-ups but they don't provide even, reliable coverage on their own. This is a great addition for on-the-go touch-ups throughout the day,  especially over makeup. 😊

@Texasmouse  Not according to my derm.  Her recommendation is Bare Minerals, but there are numerous choices. She loves the fact they cover evenly and don't melt off in the heat.

@brandiwine I guess opinions will very on this but you would have to layer powder on pretty thick to get an even layer of it and it would be prone to skip areas. This is according to another dermatologist.

@ texasmouse
Which N product in light? The tinted moisturizer with spf 30? Because that's what I also use. I layer that over CeraVe hydrating mineral sheer tint facial sunscreen spf 30.

Re: physical tinted sunscreen

Has anyone here tried Beekman Milk Primer SPF 35? It's not tinted but sounds really nice. I bought it to try. For anyone interested, it's on sale today at HSN. #738-722 for the single at $18.95, and #738-889 for the duo at $35. I like that it's using zinc oxide, best physical barrier sunblock. And it doesn't appear to give a white cast as other zinc-based blocks can do.

Re: physical tinted sunscreen

I know I said I wasn't interested but I decided to try Dr. Denese's daycream. I've never been insistent on daily spf even though some of my BB and CC creams contain it.  The purchases weren't made with that feature in mind.  I'm curious to see how Dr. D's product performs.  I know with certainty that I am not the kind of person who will reapply every two hours as required.  I wonder how many people really are?

Re: physical tinted sunscreen

When I bought my convertible, I realized I was going to need an SPF- Never having been much for CC creams or foundations in general, I  tried Perbelle..

 

I really, really like it- It looks white in the tube, but it blends perfectly wiht my skin tone- I use Naked and Thriving serum and oil  before I put it on, and it really isnt bad in the  creases- Its really great for when I go "topless"!

Re: physical tinted sunscreen

I have always hated sunscreen maybe because I have oily skin in Tzone and just hated a goopy layer.  I like Ghost Democracy.  It is mineral and does not have silicone or a greasy feel.  I don't feel it adds moisture or takes any away.
