Review & Photos: Marie Veronique Organics Moisturizing Face Screen



By the way, if you're wondering why I have it covered up in tape, it's because I've had a similar tinted moisturiser in another glass bottle before that shattered on me after a few months. Fortunately, I had it wrapped up in masking tape; unfortunately, said tape was opaque, and I was dumb. It took me a while to realise that the cuts on my forehead and gritty bits in the product were from broken glass. Took me even longer to stop using the product.

Here's the shade 'Light Tint', which is between 'Extra Light' and 'Medium Tint':



Quick summary of thoughts:
I like this. It gives more coverage than most tinted sunscreens, though it's not that moisturising. I especially like the idea of it having 'natural' ingredients so that I can have my drunken mid-day snoozes with this on, conveniently disregarding that fact that it'd clog pores no matter what unicorn poo it came from.

In the end, though, US$48 (!!) is just too much to pay for this little bottle. I'm glad my mother passed this one onto me, but I'd never pay that sort of money myself.
