Andalou Naturals Vitamin C BB Beauty Balm Sheer Tint SPF 30, 2-in-1 BB Cream & Face Sunscreen with Broad Spectrum Protection, Mineral Sunscreen with Non-Nano Zinc Oxide, 2 Fl Oz

With just this cream, my face is glowing, feels hydrated and nice tone. Not cakey, very smooth, nice smell

Caveat: Different skin, different results. This review is based on my experience. I have dry, fair/medium skin with cool-neutral undertones. I was hoping this BB cream could cover up my hyperpigmentation.Pros: This BB cream has everything I need! The zinc oxide is a physical sunblock that does not have health concerns like some chemical filters in other products. The hyaluronic acid quenches my thirsty skin and the variety of vitamins and antioxidants helps promote healthy skin. It has none of the ingredients that I am trying to avoid (e.g. parabens) and gets a low hazard score (1) from the EWG's Cosmetics Database (http://www.ewg.org/skindeep). The rich cream goes on very smoothly and evenly, giving me a healthy glow. Coverage is sheer (similar to a tinted moisturizer) after proper blending. Please note that blending is essential!Neutral: It has a natural citrus scent which I really like; however, it might bother folks that are very sensitive to scents.Cons: It is a little pricey but, given the ingredients, I think it is reasonably priced. It doesn't completely cover my hyperpigmentation (I didn't expect that it would) but it makes the blotches less noticeable.Overall: I really like this BB cream! I has everything I want (and none of what I don't) and leaves my skin looking and feeling great!

my skin just loves andalou products and this sheer tint moisturizer with sunscreen is no exception. I actually like it more the longer it's on. The sheer tint blends so nicely without being heavy, and provides a really lovely, healthy glow as the day progresses. There's no oily build up or cake feeling to it, and aside from protecting my skin from sun damage, my skin feels better using this than if I don't - that's a rarity! goes on easily, blends well, provides just enough tint to help even out the rough spots. Love this product!

I love the orange scent of this bb! It makes me smile in the morning, though the smell does not last. This is an aloe-based, 20% zinc formulation that does it all - moisturizer, spf, primer. I have medium light skin, and the color is my perfect summer tan (which, given that I try to stay out of the sun, is a very light tan). It smooths on beautifully and dries down to a natural, not oily, finish which works well under makeup. It smooths the appearance of my skin, particularly large pores, and does not make me break out. The color does seem to diminish after 20 minutes.This does contain dimethicone, a silicone, which is part of what gives it that lovely finish and also helps it last throughout the day, but I would prefer something without dimethicone for my daily routine. Though this has not been found to be a tremendous endocrine disruptor, like many ingredients in the chemical spf family, it does have an environmental effect.

Purchased this product because I did not want a caked on look. This feels more like a moisturizer and it makes my skin glow a bit. Much better than regular foundation.

This is a lovely moisturizing BB cream with a decent amount of sun protection. It is moisturizing enough for me to use on its own without a separate moisturizer. This is key as I don't like layering too many products on for daytime. I just wash my face, put this BB cream on. I will say that left on its own, it does collect in my fine lines under my eyes, but a little bit of powder takes care of that. If I wear makeup, foundation sits well on top of it with no issues. Most important of all, it does not break me out. I have very sensitive, acne-prone skin and this stuff does not aggravate my skin. Also, it does not sting or burn if it gets in my eyes. Since it is tinted, there's also no white cast left behind (I have tan skin and white sunscreens leave me looking grey). I feel it's a very good BB cream for the price. This is my 3rd tube of the stuff. It is also worth noting that they took away the annoying pump and simplified the packaging to just the tube, which is a big win... good riddance, the pump was awful. But the BB cream is a winner.

I recently bought this because I ran out of the Pacifca Ultra CC Cream Radiant Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 17. The CC cream was originally about $16 at Target, but now the price is jacked up to about $17-18...It was getting too expensive for a tiny bottle so I looked for a natural alternative.I chose the Andalou Naturals Brightening cream because it was the most natural and for a good amount.I like this product so far because it's naturally sheer and easy to blend with my skin color. I first apply California Baby Calendula Cream, apply a little bit of the Andalou cream, and apply face powder. So far it really does compliment my skin tone, gives good coverage. The cream doesn't leave my face looking too patchy, discolored or greasy. What I definitely love about this product is that it doesn't irritate my eyes like the Pacifica brand. Oh! And I love the citrus scent of the cream :-) It's very pleasant.The main ingredients I try to avoid in products are propelyne glycol, paraben, titanium dioxide, and any stearates. The ingredient list below doesn't have the first 3 that I avoid but there are stearates. I remember reading somewhere that stearates are harmful, but I'm just glad this product doesn't contain propelyne glycol, paraben, and titanium dioxide.
