Review: Benefit You Rebel Tinted spf 15



What it is:  benefit you rebel is our defiantly different tinted moisturizer.
 Will leave your complexion healthy & protected with a hint of color.
 they have even thrown in antioxidants, aloe vera & allantoin for soft, supple skin all year long.

My experience: Benefit you rebel tinted has a bronzey tinted to it. Which is quite too dark for my fair asian yellow skin (NC15). But if you want too add a little color to your face, this is the perfect thing for you. As for me I kind of enjoy it once in a while when I want a sexy tanned  look. 
This product come with SPF15 which's quite too little for me. I'm quite serious about wearing sunscreen everyday and I're prefer SPF 25 or over.

About texture, it apply smoothly and work well on its own. On my oily-combination skin It leave a little sheen so I've to finish up with powder on top. Anyways this is not an oil control type base by any means, still it doesn't make me look oilier than I actually am. 
It give a very sheer coverage, so if you have any imperfection you'll need concealer.

As for me I can use only this tinted moisturize and a touch of powder and I'm good to go.  
Overall, it's great product for busy lifestyle ladies who doesn't need much coverage.
I enjoy it enough to finish the bottle but next time I'd consider the lighter version.

Review: Minus-Sol Facial Sun Protection SPF 30+


What it is: Minus-Sol is a unique product providing high protection against the skin damage caused from UVA and UVB rays. It is a free formulation that contains as inactive ingredient, enhanced chitosan which rezults in a smooth silky feeling. Minus-Sol retains its SPF after 80 minutes of activity in water.

My Experience: It's a silicone based sunscreen with ivory tinted that help even out my skintone a little. It apply smoothly and act nicely as a makeup base for me.  I can apply only this and finish with pressed powder on top and I'm good to go. Or if I want to wear foundation, this's still a good base It help foundation apply smoothly with out leaving a white cast.
The only downside is after 4-5 hrs my face feel greasy and look oily like all other silicone based product does.
