Skin Care Review: Purpose Redness Reducing Moisturizer with SPF 30

by Moti Sehn

Rating
Good

Benefits
SPF 30, but doesn't irritate my skin, especially not around the nostrils.

Drawbacks
Was hard to get all of the product out of the pump container once it got low.

Details
If it reduced redness on my face, it was not enough for me to notice. But, who knows! Maybe my face would be redder!

It is "dermatologist recommended." The active ingredients all appear to be sunscreens: ensulizole, octocrylene, zinc oxide and octioxate, so maybe it reduces redness by preventing sunburn.

I find that most moisturizers with a good SPF (20 or more), irritate my face. This one did not.

I use it in the morning. It is not waterproof, so I've used it only in the winter, when sweat and water aren't likely to wash it off.

I have used it for about 3 months.

If you can find it on sale, it is an acceptable suncreen/moisturizer, but my search for the perfect moisturizer/sunscreen/redness reducer continues.

Conclusions
Keep looking! The perfect sunscreen/moisturizer is out there somewhere!

Price (paid by reviewer)
$15

Where to find it
CVS
