KORRES WATERMELON TINTED MOISTURISER




This Korres Lightweight Tinted Moisturiser spf 30 is and has been my no1 staple makeup item.  





Description


Very practical packaging. Looks like paint. Easy to use. The tinted moisturiser itself is oil-free (Hallelujah!) and comes in three shades. 


It contains watermelon extract, which is rich in vitamins and aminoacids, prevents photo-ageing and decreases redness. Vanilla and Curcuma longa extracts
provide antioxidant protection.





Pros


It provides great sun protection. Spf 30 with very good lasting power.


Ridiculously good, buildable, coverage.


Very natural finish that looks like natural skin. It doesn't mask the face or make it look greasy.


Quick drying time. You don't need to wait in order to apply blush etc.


Not only it is oil-free but it also does not contain any silicones. That's why it's ideal for skin that tends to break out.


Great staying power for a tinted moisturiser.


Treatment-based makeup product (full of vitamins, antioxidants etc), free of nasty ingredients 


Reasonably priced (even though it feels luxurious).





Cons


It only comes in three shades. Because the product is sheer after all, you don't need an exact colour-match, but still; this won't cut it for people that are pale or darker than the average mediterranean.  





My feelings


Nothing beats this. Really. It leaves the skin feeling so fresh like there's barely any makeup on it. I love the natural-looking finish and the fact that I can always use it; even when I have a terrible break out and my skin doesn't tolerate much. This really allows the skin to breathe and feel comfortable.


I usually apply a dot of moisturiser first and then add this on top but if you have oily skin you can go ahead and use it on cleansed face.
