This extreme summer heat causes my melasma . So this summer, I really stocked up on mositurizers, sunscreens and alot of skin care products but I must admit I rarely put them on since I am drowning with chores. But there is one tinted sunscreen that I have been dying to try but is always out of stock in every drugstore I visit. But thankfully, I saw it in one of the branches of Watson's near me.
Belo tinted moisturizer comes in two sizes, I only got the small one because I just want to test it out anyway. Also, I have so much foundation and moisturizers in rotation too. Their products are pretty promising and at par with the Korean cosmetics and skin care products that I have tried.

Swatch of medium to deep tinted sunscreen |
The product claims to protect your skin while achieving the "no-make-up" look everyday. It can be used alone or layer it under your favorite foundation. It is paraben-free, non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested. I even got my mom one too who is sooo allergic to almost all kinds of skin care products and make-ups.

Blended on my arm. If you can notice the whitish product near my wrist, that is how it looks like. |
PROs:
Scent. I like that it doesn't have that annoying smell, it even smells good which resembles to those Korean skin care products. I can be either sensitive nor tolerant to the scents of skin care products depending on my nose situation. For those who have rhinitis, you all know what I mean.
Coverage. This claims to have that "no-make-up" look so, do not expect that it will cover the imperfections of your skin. If you want to use this alone, you may use concealers if you are quite particular in hiding your blemishes.
Matte Finish. This is also good to those who have oily skin as it dries to a matte finish. However, it really doesn't last that long because my face literally oiled up within two hours. However, if you probably have that decent primer on, then it might help this last longer or if you just layer this with your long lasting foundation.
Hypoallergenic/Paraben-free/Non-Comedogenic. I am not quite keen to this since when I was younger, I never cared for my skin. But it is only now that I appreciate this since I get a lot of breakouts after giving birth to my third child. Hormones really get crazy post pregnancies. Also, my mom told me she never had bad allergies when she used this. So plus points!
Tone Adapt Technology. Being in the darker shade, I had to look for foundation that will really blend my skin tone really well or else I will look like walking powder. This maybe light on swatch but it surprisingly blends a tad close to my skin color. I just put a good bronzer as well as set it with a setting powder.
CONs:
It is quite hard to purchase or probably it is just not available in the malls near me. Hyped perhaps? No idea. Also, I hope they can come up with a bit darker one since medium to deep is quite dark still for me. I have known ladies who have darker skin shades than me.
Price point. The price is so-so. I cannot say that it is affordable nor expensive so as long as it does the job well.
Final thoughts. I strongly recommend this to everyone who is not a fan of foundation. It has already the sunscreen we all need everyday and also tinted that you can use it alone. This is good for those ladies who doesn't like to put alot of skin care just like my mom and are always in a hurry.
