It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of tinted moisturizers. So when I received Jane Iredale's Dream Tint (love the name BTW) I was extremely excited to try it. However I was disappointed because my color was not a match. Which I found unusual, because tinted moisturizers overall are quite forgiving when it comes to color. But first let me tell you the clam for Jane Iredale Dream Tint, because I love all that it promises: This super-absorbent product not only hydrates, but prevents water loss, calms inflammation and improves the skin's elasticity. Plus, Dream Tint creates a soft-focus effect that minimizes the look of large pores and fine lines. • Unique algae extracts moisturize and soothe • Titanium dioxide provides SPF 15 with UVA protection • Use alone as a tinted moisturizer and sunscreen or as the perfect primer for our minecural bases • Available in five shades, as well as Lilac and Peach as brighteners, and Warm Bronze for the perfect sun-kissed look My results: Now, to be fair, this tinted moisturizer felt fabulous going on my skin. And the feel of my skin was hydrated without being too heavy or sticky. But my problem was the color. I tried a "Dark". Now, ordinarily I am not a dark, my tone is more in the olive/dark medium family. But for the sake of beauty I tried it. The color was clearly dark for my skin, but that wasn't the primary problem with the color. It took on what I call a "holographic" looks to it. This commonly occurs when products are formulated with titanium dioxide, which is white. And Dream Tint indeed used titanium dioxide for its SPF. But I didn't give up. I wanted to give it another chance. So I had my daughter, who is a true "Dark" try it out. And the same purple-y holographic thing happened on her skin too. So, I'm rather disheartened. I am thinking that perhaps the Warm Bronze may work for my skin–it appears to be more golden in tone. But I will have to wait and see if the good folks at Jane Iredale give me another crack at it. I do have a few other product from Jane Iredale to review, so check back. One in particular I am already in love with so check back later for my review of the kohl pencils. For now though, I have to give Jane Iredale Dream Tint 2 Blings. Color is a plays a huge factor in choosing products for brown skin, and this one just did not live up to my standard, and I cannot recommend it to other women of color.
