bareMinerals Skinlongevity Phyto-Vitamin C Brightening Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30, Brightening Daily Face Moisturizer + Neck Cream, Vegan, Cruelty-Free & Dermatologist-Tested

After 55 years of loving the sun, but still doing my part with Sunscreen, I've still gotten sun spots. On a trip to Ulta with my Sister-in-law, we were given testers by a Bare Minerals Rep of this "Brightening" Moisturizer with SPF 30. I have to say I was skeptical, and the Moisturizer isn't cheap. We both gave it a try, and while I'm not sure if my SIL is still using it, I LOVE this stuff!! While I'm on my second tube (ordered from Amazon for a little better price), a little bit goes along way. I'm still battling the spots, but I feel my skin does look brighter. What do you think?

Good moisturizer. Works very well under makeup.

I love Bare Minerals. This brightening Moisturizer is just the right weight for my skin.

My issue is not with the product, I loved the product. My issue is whoever is selling it in Amazon. They send me a product that will expire in 2 months. I requested an exchange and they send another product expiring in 2 month.

My dermatologist told me to use bare minerals and I do. This product looks good and feels good. Still have wrinkles but what can I expect at 81 years!

This product is tinted pink. That is the brightener. A pink tint. If you get it in your hairline, your hair is also pink. Even though it's a moisturizer, it had a matte finish for me and I have to use a moisturizer under it. It's best in the summer when my face has a touch of color from the sun anyway so the pink does not look as unnatural.

bareMinerals Skinlongevity Phyto-Vitamin C Brightening Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30 has a pinkish tint to it and is supposed to be used as a moisturizer and an SPF. However, on the advice of my dermatologist, I always wear SPF 50, every day, even winter days, cloudy days, snowy days, and days I spend indoors. So I, yup, dumped on more sunscreen. This product, however, does look good on my skin. It adds a nice sheen to my face, and on the days that I use it, even adding another thin layer of sunscreen, I don't use foundation on top of it. It's a very sheer coverage, so don't imagine that it can take the place of a medium coverage foundation, but if you are comfortable with a whisper-light touch of color, this could work for you. I add blush and bronzer, and I'm good for the day. There's no white cast at all, and my skin looks dewy and healthy. I think the price point is a little high, for me at least, since I still have to add more sunscreen. It doesn't quite take the place of a sunscreen, since I add more. As a moisturizer, it feels pretty good, but I also a serum under all of my moisturizers, and I use a moisturizing serum underneath this one. Just because. It's already acting as a sunscreen, moisturizer, and a sort-of foundation. It probably needs a boost! Yes, I'd recommend this, but be aware of the possible shortcomings.

So here’s the thing. This is a great sunscreen. Has a little coverage in it, dries down matte. However it’s about $55. Now I think it is worth it if there’s nothing comparable on the market. Darphin, a French brand, makes a very similar product for $26 and it’s on Amazon too. Hum…
