All about: Dermalogica's all new Sheer Tint SPF20

I went for to Louise Gray Skin Care in Mission Bay a couple of week’s ago for a treatment and a good old-fashioned signature Dermalogica Face Mapping. This is a thorough WOF for the skin as per the brand’s modus operandi, and was a great way to check up on how my skin was doing and also served a reminder as to how many Dermalogica products I love.

One is the Dermalogica Sheer Tint SPF20, which has been around for a while but recently got a facelift (pun intended) in the form of a new formulation. It offers three key functions in one, so could I guess be called Dermalogica’s version of the BB cream. It combines skin health benefits (naturally), broad-spectrum sun protection and a lovely wee wash of natural-looking coverage to reveal the skin whilst correcting where it needs it. It has been reformulated for improved wearability with a silkier and smoother texture, and more universal pigment shades. It also includes Hydrolyzed Pearl Powder, an ingredient rich in amino acids that has been used for centuries by the East to promote radiant beauty and health. It means no chalky look or ashy shades, making it a great pick for lots of skin tones. Hydrolyzed Pearl Powder is also rich in calcium, sugars and proteins, which all help stimulate cell regeneration. It also increases hydration, reduces excess melanin production, and inhibits the dreaded glycation, which leads to skin ageing. 

The oil-free formula hydrates the skin with antioxidant Olive Fruit and Walnut Seed extracts, skin-conditioning silicone Dimethicone to protect and reinforce barrier lipids, and Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B-5) to aid in skin repair. Iron Oxide, a natural mineral in the formula, creates the sheer colour wash that has such a flattering look on the skin.

So, start saving your pennies now because the all-new Sheer Tint SPF20 is available in Light, Medium and Dark, from 1st August 2015 for the recommended retail price of $79.00. Love that!
