Whenever you visit your home country, what do you usually do? I figured, first on the list will be eating all the foods you've missed. Then visit your extended family or relatives. Spend your hard-earned money relaxing e.g. massage and going to the beach.
(I was born on the beautiful island of Cebu, Philippines where crystal clear beaches abound.) And of course, shopping!
I currently live in Singapore. It is hot and humid, the same where I was born in the Philippines. I personally, don't apply heavy makeup because who has the time? I clearly don't! I'm always hurried to work.
Anyway, I've long been looking for a foundation/cream with SPF. I also prefer one with light coverage. I'm sure you've heard of the no-makeup makeup look. That's what I want to achieve. On one of my shopping trips back in the Philippines, I saw the ELF Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 20. "This is it!" I thought. It's a moisturizer with a tint and has SPF on it. Let's see how it fares.

Product Review
ELF's Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 20 has aloe, cucumber, and vitamins A, C & E. It has a light coverage, great for pool lounging, frolicking at the beach, touring South Asia where it's hot and humid or for everyday use. Below are my thoughts on this product.
Pros
- Affordable. I bought this product for PHP 249.75 in the Philippines.
- Travel-friendly. I bring this with me whenever we travel.
- It's a moisturizer and a foundation in one. I like that it has SPF for sun protection. Isn't it amazing? It saves me 3 steps on my morning routine.
- Easy to apply, blend, and squirt from the tube.
- Has many shades to choose from.
- Doesn't break me out.
Cons
- Smells like your regular sunscreen
- This is a minor one. No matter how much I rub the tube clean, it remains dirty looking. As seen in the photo above.
Overall, I like this product. It's affordable. This is what I bring whenever I travel. Have you tried ELF's tinted moisturizer with SPF? How do you like it? If not, why not give it a go and see if it works for you.
