To be honest I did not like this product at all when I first got it. I found it a  bit too sheer for my liking. As time went on and I forced myself to use it I realized I love it.

I love it in the summer but hate it in the winter. Which is odd, or at least I think so.

I guess I reach for tinted moisturizers more in the summer, I feel they won't melt off my face, cover moisturizing and evening in one step and in this case have full coverage spf protection.
Don't get me wrong, when I want more coverage I still reach for my Laura Mercier, but when it is just a hot summer day this works just fine. Sometimes I'll even use a loaded up powder puff filled with a tinted powder over it to set it.

If you've ever tried Mark's Get a Tint I highly recommend checking this out.
Pros:
  • Cheap ($3 for 20 ml)
  • Loaded with vitamins
  • Full coverage SPF 20 (most only do UVB and not UVA so make sure to check every time you buy a product claiming to have SPF)
  • 7 Shades (I'm Porcelain)
  • Doesn't smell like the ELF Essentials line tinted moisturizer does
  • Found it lightweight
Cons:
  • Very sheer (if you want a fuller coverage tinted moisturizer this isn't it)
  • Hard to find in Canada (Winner's might have it)
Overall:
I like this stuff quite a bit in the summer, for the price I really don't think it is possible to make too many complaints. I think if you are at all thinking of doing an elf order you should toss one in you shopping cart and give it a shot, after all it is only $3.
