Calling all tinted sunscreen wearers!

Hi Everyone,

Ok this is going to sound really bad but I have not been wearing sunscreen! =( So now I really must must must do it as its warming up a lot and its no excuse not to because like our mummies always say “prevention is better than cure”. So how many options do i have these days in terms of a great spf30 sunscreen that has a tint for days when I dont have time for foundation but still evens the skin tone and gives a little bit of coverage?

Please help.

    That sux about the neutrogena one, thank heavens I didn’t like that one, I would have been spewing if I got burn while wearing it, not good. Yep up the zinc 🙂 I tried a white zinc called invisable zinc as well I think from Karma Minerals today and yesterday and I really like it, great if you want to wear makeup, I can’t seem to get my makeup to go on top of my tinted daywear at all coz it just looks cakey 🙂

    Yes, well I would agree with you Mel. This is one of the only products I have worn that I havent got burnt with-as I have very very fair white skin.
    I was wearing the new neutrogean one and I loved it, and reviewed it, but alas I am not happy now because I wore it last week and got burnt something bad-30 minutes after going outside. I live in harsh sun too, and would say that IZ is one of the only ones I would recommend.

    Check out the minis mishmoshy-they are good

    It is excellent for oily acne prone skin as zinc contains healing properties and also keeps your skin matte 🙂

    Wow… I think i’ll definitely look into IZ more. But would it be too oily for acne-prone skin? :S is its formula oily?
    I guess i’ll never know until I try really.. definitely going to try this out soon before christmas rushes in!

    Yep, I’ve jumped on the IZ bandwagon too, bought my first full-sized bottle last night! Have been very happy with the results over the past two months, it sits well on the skin and literally last ALL DAY, has wonderful mattifying effects too that have surpassed all other facial sunscreens I’ve tried.
