Tinted Moisturizers....
N.V. Perricone, M.D. Active Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 ($65) ranks as one of the most expensive tinted moisturizers available, but at least all of the necessary bases (and then some) are covered. Featuring an in-part titanium dioxide sunscreen, the formula applies smoothly, and its creamy texture leaves normal to very dry skin sufficiently moist, with a fresh, dewy finish that doesn’t feel greasy. The formula even includes several antioxidants, and it’s packaged to ensure they remain stable after the product is opened. Two of the three shades are great; only Tint 03 is quite yellow, with an effect that is difficult to soften on medium skin tones. Still, it may be worth a try at the counter to see how it looks, assuming you’re willing to pay the premium price. For about half as much money, equal kudos go to Bobbi Brown’s SPF 15 Tinted Moisturizer ($38) and Aveda’s Inner Light Tinted Moisture SPF 15 ($25). For even less money, Neutrogena’s Healthy Skin Enhancer SPF 20 ($11.99) and Paula’s Choice Natural Finish Oil-Absorbing Makeup SPF 15 ($12.95) are other prime options.
