A tinted balm, good for the beach


This is Bobbi Brown's Extra Tinted Balm SPF 25.  It is a tinted balm that is ultra rich and full of moisture. It gives very sheer to light coverage. I picked this up because we are going to the beach and it is a great balm to wear when you are out for a day at the pool or the beach. I wear sunscreen under it and put this on top. It evens out the skin tone and looks like you are wearing no make up at all. Very super natural and has the added benefit of SPF plus some other wonderful ingredients.

 I would not recommend wearing this as a your daily tinted moisturizer, or in replacement of a foundation, but I am sure people do.  It smells kind of "beachy" and soaks into the skin nicely.  The cost is pricey, but one jar will last forever. As I have said before, I have dry skin so my skin likes a product like this, so if you tend to be oily, this is probably not the product for you!  This balm is enriched with shea butter, glycerine, and squalane that deeply moisturize. Also, vitamin A and carrot extract that reduces the look of fine lines and wrinkles. In addition it has angelica seed and chamomile oil to help soothe and calm the skin.

Nobody wants a full face of make up at the pool or beach and this product won't make you feel like you have anything on.  It is like a scented, tinted sunscreen. It makes the skin dewy with a nice color finish and protected at the same time ~ who does't want that? It's better than having a pale sunscreen face right?

Happy First Day of Summer!
