Daily delight: Chanel's Hydramax + Active Teinte

There is at least one tinted moisturiser in most beauty brand's collections, but they are often harder to get "right" than many think, and are definitely not all created equal. Some have higher SPF digits than others whilst a few are big on heavy duty moisturisation, and finding the perfect match for your skin can be like looking for a needle in the proverbial haystack. Well I have finally found my Holy Grail, in the form of Chanel's Hydramax + Active Teinte, or Active Moisture Tinted Lotion for the non-Francophiles amongst us. With an SPF of 15, this hydrating lotion delivers essential moisture to skin and defends it from UVA and UVB rays, while imparting a healthy, super pretty glow. At the heart of the formula is Chanel's CERATONIA PFA, which powerfully stimulates hydration whilst a Hydrabarrier System locks it in to keep things supple, but never greasy. This has withstood one hell of a humid New Zealand Summer without fail, and even stays put during yoga sessions and hikes. The colour that matches my skin is Sand, which is a gorgeously soft beige that hardly needs anything else to keep my skin looked even toned and fresh. Love it, can't be without it.
