Since I’m outside quite a bit with the kids, I’m always in need of some type of protection for my face. I have used plenty of sunscreens on my face and they work to block the sunburn but most will cause a breakout. Not a good look! Skin 2 Skin* Anti-Photoaging SPF 30* ($44) is a wonderful tinted SPF that is lightweight, anti-inflammatory, and protects the skin from premature aging. An SPF for my face and I experienced no breakouts, yay! Here’s some info from Skin 2 Skin*:
“Reflects and disperses the UVA and UVB away from the sun. Our SPF 30 is an anti-oxidant with moisturizing ingredients to help repair the skin from the effects of sun exposure and a natural mineral tint that balances the skin for picture perfect tone. Women love to use this as their foundation and men like how it evens and blends into the skin easily without looking like makeup. Fragrance is an essential oil blend of Lavender, Tangerine, Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, Mandarin, Rosewood and Rose and Mineral Tint.”

I can totally agree that this is a wonderful SPF product and has functioned so well as a lightweight foundation for me. Great when I am in a hurry (which is almost always!), since it applies quick and easy. It has a lovely scent and has a refreshing feeling when it’s on, never heavy. You can pretty much put it on and forget about it! I applied the Skin 2 Skin* Anti-Photoaging SPF3o with a foundation brush as I would any product acting as a foundation. It is thin in consistency and I don’t like applying all-over face products with my fingers. Overall, great product for everyday use that provides SPF 30 (blocks both UVA and UVB), and functions well as a foundation for me. As we all know, natural and organic products do cost more than your average product that contains a ton of synthetic ingredients. So, yes, this product is on the high end of the price range…but you get what you pay for.
Skin 2 Skin* has a site full of natural, organic products, so go take a look! I will be reviewing other Skin 2 Skin products in the future so be on the lookout!
