I'm on a constant search for the perfect tinted face sunscreen, that gives the no make up look. This has not been an easy task I have to admit. I have tried many and been disappointed. I'm not going to toss it as I hate to waste, so my solution to this is to blend with moisturizer or a basic non tinted sunscreen to change the colour somewhat. My problem is always that they are too dark and yellow for my skin tone.

Tower 28 "SunnyDays"
So onto the Tower 28 Sunscreen. It covers all the areas that are important to me, its clean and filled with good and helpful ingredients. This one has Aloe Vera and Prickly Pear to help soothe and moisturize.
Its also great for sensitive prone skin, and this one is also a foundation and sunscreen combined. I dont usually go for a foundation type sunscreen but wanted to try this one as it looked promising. What I found is that it is very thick which I guess is to give a foundation coverage feel.
Also finding the right shade takes a bit of trial and error. There are lots of shades to try out which is good and bad. Which one to try has been a bit of a task for me I have to be honest. The two I have tried so far have been the wrong ones :)). I am still using them by mixing them so they are not going to waste. It is very creamy and moisturizing and I can see that if you want that foundation look you will definitely get it with this sunscreen.
If you are looking for a sheer tint that just gives a healthy glow to your summer skin, then I think this is not the one to choose, not for me anyway. I think they need to offer sample sizes to get the right shade, otherwise you could end up with a shelf full of sunscreen that you will feel very guilty about :))
