    Just hoping someone can recommend a really decent tinted moisturiser with an SPF of 20 or higher for everyday wear.

    I have very sensitive skin and most will cause me to break out in spots. So need something with no chemical SPF, that's gentle and hydrating. Also, I'm reasonably pale skinned, so nothing too madly coloured!!!

    Hope I'm not looking for the impossible!

    Hey I was looking for the same thing a while ago but I read/saw something about the effectiveness of the SPF in moisturisers. AFAIR they said that they SPF isn't as effective when it's in a moisturiser.

    You are far better off to put a separate face sun cream under your makeup.
    I tend to put on my moisturisers (which has some SPF), followed by factor 25 on the Soltan range (Buy one get one free in Boots atm) and then my makeup. There is meant to be a lovely one that was recommend here before but the name escapes me. The only reason why I haven't bought it is because I was drawn in by Boots BOGOF offer!

    EDIT: Dermalogica Ultra Sensitive Face Block SPF 25

    Hope that helps.

    hi i disagree with wyrn in that i use oil of olay total effects with foundation, it has factor 15 built in which has saved me from sunburn when i got little scorched on other body parts, BUT on saying that I use the fair colour i think it still too dark for really pale skins, i have bit of colour and i still border line with the colour.
