It's a bit tinted, but it's very thin, not like a tinted moisturiser. It's the only downside with the physical blocks - they have to be slightly tinted or they would look like the cricket block!

If you absolutely don't want tinted, I use this one sometimes too and it's very nice, (but it does use a chemical sunscreen): http://www.dermalogica.com/uk/pro...efense/extra-rich-faceblock-spf30

I might give the tinted one a try then, the extra rich one would be too thick I think.

I like the sound of the solar defense booster they do, that you mix with your moisturiser but I guess that's a chemical screen one.

Well thank you, Cecilia, Diva, Anna and Scarlett...all great tips and i've been looking for a sunscreen that i can use daily with my moisturiser. I'm using a lush one at the moment and it seems to be helping...although thanks to a terrible cold i have generally gone a not so nice shade of grey! So, i guess it's time to say bye bye to the booze! xx

Thanks Anna for that, I might look into it. My mum has such nice skin and would you believe she only ever uses soap and water?

I think we have all learnt here that nice, simple, chemical free products are the way forward. Very Happy

Dewsbury, you wouldn't be the same without a Carling in your mit x

Do the products you use make a difference? i.e is it better to use Dermologica than Superdrug's own brand?

Also does anyone have any tips for under eye wrinkles!? Mine seem to be terrible and really noticable at the moment!

ive been using Lush foundationr ecently (got some free samples Wink

) and that seems to have really helped calm my skin down and even it out and the prices arent bad...im going to look into that oil though. My skin has never been as bad as it is now Sad

poor skin just looks knackered!!

I know it sounds strange but for exfoliation half ground oats its all natural so it dosnt clog up your skin and is cost affective. It worked for me my skin is terrible and breaks out constantly.
