Aveeno Positively Radiant

This is the first tinted moisturizer I have ever tried. I am a fan of Aveeno and their products. I do have problematic and sensitive skin (I can't even use some facial sunscreens because they're so harsh on my skin). Personally, I use mineral makeup for cover up and really can't use liquid foundation. This product, however, gave me what I was looking for: cover, with sun protection, and doesn't initiate an allergic reaction. The other great things about this product is that the pump provides the right amount, it smells better than regular sunscreen, and the bottle is small enough to put in a carry on (I travel a lot and this meets the carry on specification).

I read the other reviews and do agree that the moisturizer is thick. Also, it is more expensive than other drug store tinted moisturizers (however, I believe it's more beneficial). The other downside to it is that there are only two colors: fair to light and medium.

All in all, I do recommend this product.

This isn't the kind of product I normally review, but I am so impressed with it that I decided to do it anyway. At first I wasn't quite sure if I liked it, but then I realized 1. I have to use less than I would if it was regular foundation, and 2. I have to "set" it with pressed powder or it leaves my face shiny. After those two discoveries, WOW! This will leave you with even-toned, healthy-looking skin without giving you "make-up face". And after using it for a few weeks, my skin is looking healthier all around, even once I wash it off at night. Fantastic product, highly recommended!

Buy Aveeno Positively Radiant Now

Let's just say that my 46 year old skin faces numerous challenges. One morning I woke up determined to go find a face primer to help correct my skin's problems. I hopped in the car and drove 45 minutes to the nearest Sephora. 3 hours later I left Sephora after having tried on every single solitary primer they carry. Nothing helped! I purchased nothing. I left feeling hopeless and dejected after that. Surely if all those expensive miracle products wouldn't help then nothing short of lazer surgery was going to.

On the my way back home home I had to stop at a drugstore to pick up a few essentials for my family. While I was racing up and down the aisles getting stuff, somehow I happned to notice the Aveeno Positively Radiant Tinted Moisterizer, SPF 30 Medium. I recalled having used the Radient moisturizer SPF 30 in the past and that I liked it so I tossed this new one in the cart althtough I expected nothing from it other than an orangy, streaky mess on my face. Thinking I was just going to have to go right back in and return the product, I opened it when I got back in the car and put some on right there in the parking lot.

It took a minute to get it blended and worked into my skin and then all of a sudden WOW! I could not believe my eyes. I looked so much younger, healther, and more refreshed than I have in years!

Blotchy dark mottled spots all over my face from sun damage erased! All of a sudden, poof! Cannot see them. (And before this nothing I have ever found covered them up!)

Gigantic pores minimized significantly

Crows feet SO much softened

Dry areas looked soft and well hydrated but not greasy

Under eye circles almost gone!

Red areas gone

Overall tired, stressed, grayish cast of my skin replaced with a luminous, radiant,healthy, natural glow from within look. No weird looking sparkles in the product either.

Greasiness replaced by a lovely even finish all over my face. Not a dry powdered look. Not an overly shiny "dewy" look. Just soft, velvety, slightly moist skin.

And I have one more for you too! For 30 years I have worn foundation every single day. Now I no longer need foundation and I look better than I ever did with it on! You have no idea how freeing this is!

I have never written a review in my life but I could not let this one go by without alerting others to the awesome potential this might have for you too. It goes on thick at first (like a suncreen would) but don't worry. Just keep blending until you have a nice even layer of it on and voila! That heaviness goes away and the product just seems to evaporate into you skin. Feels light and skin can breath.

Lastly, I tried the product from this line designed for the eyes. OW! Stung and burned like crazy on my skin for a long time. Oh well, can't hit it everytime, right? I would not recommend the eye stuff though.

I ran out of my Loreal Age Perfect tinted moisturizer and couldn't find it at any local stores, so I decided to try this Aveeno as they have good products. However, they obviously don't know what "tinted moisturizer" means. The Loreal and Olay that I had tried were very moist, light and sheer. This is very heavy and opaque. As I couldn't afford to waste it, I have continued to use it. I have found if I use a moisturizer under it, it works better. It still wants to collect in my pores and creases and I have to use a sponge to blend it in. It is like very heavy makeup. I will use it up, but won't purchase it again.

Want Aveeno Positively Radiant Discount?

First off, I almost never repeat buy moisturizers, I usually keep searching for something better, but not with this tinted moisturizer. I actually buy a spare one or two in the winter because it is harder to find for some reason in the winter months. I buy the medium shade and it blends in so nice and gives very good coverage, so i feel fine leaving the house without make-up. I would probably describe my skin as light-to medium and this shade of medium works really well for me.
