Hot on the heels of the Garnier BB Cream, that I wasn't such a fan of, comes this: a tinted moisturiser. I've typically steered away from tinted moisturisers - I think I went through a phase of using nothing but when I was MUCH younger and have never really got back into it.
The Nivea Young Be Beautiful! Tinted Moisturiser is, as the name suggests, designed for young skin. It should, in theory, moisturise, protect (it has a UVA/UVB filter, but no SPF rating) and even out your skin tone.
As with the BB cream, I didn't find this product nearly emollient enough but I also think I'm not the target market. But when I used a moisturiser underneath, I found that this gave much better coverage than the BB cream. Although I had the 'natural' colour, it came out of the tube a really scary dark brown but I found it blended in with my skin tone well. It had a nice matt finish and I certainly didn't appear to be caked in makeup (or hhttp://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=7093719917028615861#editor/target=post;postID=4605148760414607691ave a tide line!).
I'm struggling to find a retail price for this product, but I doubt it's exorbitant.
If you're skin's not dry or dehydrated and you're after a foundation like product to have on standby, I would recommend giving this a go. Given the lack of SPF I would make sure to use a sunblock too, particularly if you're going to be outside.
Not sure about availability. The ever reliable Priceline doesn't appear to stock it.
Nivea.
