Good for sunscreen but not as much moisture
I really wanted to love this moisturizer because I love Aveeno body products. The Color blends in well with my skin tone but I didn’t feel like it did the job in the moisturizing area. I would use this more for a sunscreen rather than an everyday product. I think it would be better for younger women and not so much for me at 56 - I need more moisturizing. I do love that it is fragrance free and that is hard to find. Also this is great for sensitive skin - no harshness! The product is light and absorbs well it’s just not the right fit for me.
Just not for me
I received this product to sample.
First impression was great, the packaging is sleek and easy to read. The colors are appealing and the tube has a unique shape. But, upon the first squeeze I had to look at the label again. The color was unlike any moisturizer I’d ever used. It is a tan/blush color rather than white or clear. It did not leave color on my face. It smelled nice and went on smoothly. Sadly, it did not provide the same level of moisture of my current product.
Will use as SPF, not moisturizer
I used this for 2 weeks, and found it felt kinda heavy on my face. I was hoping it would not be greasy looking, but it was very shiny. I did not like that it was tinted, and it definitely transferred when I changed my shirt. I had high hopes for this product, and unfortunately it will not be something I use everyday.
Very Moisturizing
I recieved this product and was pretty excited to try a facial moisturizer with SPF in it. I found it to be very moisturizing and it evened out my skin tone. However, I felt that it left my skin feeling tacky which did not sit too well when I tried to apply make up over it.
Not bad, not great
I received the Aveeno Calm + Restore Daily Facial Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30 from Butterly free in exchange for my review.
I didn't love this product but didn't hate it either. I like that the moisturizer is natural, with non-chemical sun protection. I also liked that it had a little tint to it which evened my skin but still looked natural. I'm very fair so it looked good but I'm not sure how it would look for someone with a deeper skin tone. The biggest thing I didn't like was the sticky feeling it left on my skin all day. I had hoped it would soak in but it stayed put (probably good for sun protection) but also remained sticky all day. I wear glasses so it was especially annoying that my glasses kept sliding.
I will continue to use the moisturizer and see if my feelings change because there are some good benefits, but I'm not sure I would buy it- I guess we will see.
Lightweight but not suitable for my skintone
This is such a good moisturizer, unfortunately this gives me a white caste after I apply on my skin. Very lightweight and calming fragrance. Maybe this is not fit for my skin tone (medium to dark) . The white caste leaves me looking weird. This product is good for light skin
Aveeno is a great brand, but I'm not a fan of this
I wanted to love this product because I do like Aveeno products but I can't stand feeling like there is something on my face. This is why I don't wear makeup. This felt like there was a film on my face that made it feel dry and sticky at the same time.
49/100 on Yuka
I’ve been on my skincare rave and honestly it’s been a while I’ve been trying to find good clean ingredients. This one is 49/100 on Yuka ! It says that it has a high risk and is a potential endocrine disrupter!
Was ok, but not for me
Coming at you with another freebie! @thisisbutterly @aveenoca, this cream is a different one. It looks like a bb cream coming out, but it spreads like a sun screen. It rubs in really nice and absorbed fairly quickly. no scent. I did have one issue I sweat a lot due to the medication that I take. This product would run easily and get into my eyes. I even tried using less of the product, but it didn't matter. So I've been using it from the nose down. 3.5/5 stars
So Close to Being a Favourite
I like how soothing and non-stinging this sunscreen is. Even around the eyes I had no problem. However, the white caste is a bit too much for my liking, but it's wearable for medium skin tones. It helps that the sunscreen is slightly tinted. The pilling is the biggest offender here. It's not the worst in the pilling department of sunscreens but it still pills whenever I reapply it or if applied on skin that is flaking. The texture on the other hand is comfortable, not oily, and sets to a satin finish with a slight tackiness. I prefer spf 50+ though since I am using a prescription that makes my skin more sensitive to UV rays, but for home application, I'm good with this 30 SPF level. I highly recommend not putting any skincare underneath this sunscreen since it immediately pilled off the moment I applied it. This tends to be the case for most North American sunscreens sadly.
