My Reviews after using for a week long:

Note: I have a dehydrated sensitive acne prone skin

The Likes:

1)      Extremely lightweight doesn’t feel heavy at all

2)      Provides a sheer coverage and makes skin look smooth and flawless

3)      Does NOT clog pores, cause breakouts or experience any irritation

4)      Evens out skin tones (in my case, it conceal the purple/green veins showing in my skin)

5)      Not greasy or oily, totally suitable for oily/combo skin

6)      Paraben Free

7)      Contains shimmery that could brighten up skintone (Note: NOT exaggerated shimmers instead skin will look naturally glowy)

8)      Contain SPF

9)      Provide adequate amount of moisture and hydration (in my case; would last around  8-10hrs)

The DisLikes:

1)      Pricey (might be a little expensive for just a tinted moisturizer)

2)      Only one Shade Available(Medium Beige; suitable for NC15-20)

3)      Available only at Dermalogica Store/Counters

My Verdict:

I really love this Tinted Moisturizer as it contains very subtle shimmery that would add natural glow to skin and the natural tint which even out my skintone. I’m using Dermalogica’s TreatmentFoundation before but now I’ve switched to just applying Clean Start Brighten Up SPF15. I prefer this one because besides having a natural coverage, it is also a treatment moisturizer with SPF that could protect your skin.
