Smashbox Halo Healthy Glow Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 25

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This product claims to be a "Primer-infused for all-day wear & a healthy glow, this SPF tinted moisturizer gives you lightweight, natural-looking dewy coverage that hydrates skin for up to 24 hours. Smashbox Halo Healthy Glow Tinted Moisturizer is a breathable, oil-free formula that primes & perfects in one easy step. I didn't notice a scent. The packaging is pretty standard compared to other all in one tinted moisturizer with SPF. I received the color fair, which was a little yellow for my skin tone. I swatched it on my cheek, it wasn't quite so yellow once blended into my skin, but if you look closely at the photos after blending, it did not apply smoothly and enhanced my pores and facial jaw lines. Almost immediately. This was a bit of a bummer because I had been looking forward to trying this product because I like multifunctional makeup. It also contains talc, which from what I understand is a debated topic currently. I tried to avoid talc containing products because if there's a chance of mesothelioma, I just don't want to take any unnecessary risks when there are similar products on the market, talc-free. I find it a bit suspicious that companies have started swapping l talc for other ingredients like in products like baby powders. So I have heard it is generally not recommended for application to the genital areas as there is some risk. I'd just rather not put an ingredient like that on my face or near my eyes or mouth. I wonder if one day we'll find out it was indeed harmful. In companies I've known this all the time, but took very slow action to remove talk from their newer products. I really wish that companies would be more transparent with things like this. However, these situations have repeatedly occurred throughout history so I decided to inspect my makeup. I have a lot of make up so it took a long time, but I found three big boxes full of very expensive makeup that all contained talk. It is especially where I'm around my eyes as it's a mucus membrane. I am hesitant to apply despite my love for a more than a few of my beautiful eyeshadow palettes and facial powders. I wish companies would let us trade in the to containing items for their new tile free products! It happens with recalls in the grocery store. I a girl can only dream… I've noticed a significant increase in companies changing over powders and creams with talc to new versions that are marketed as "talc free". Seems like a little suspicious to me. I included a photo of the ingredients if anyone has any sensitivities to any of the ingredients. If you have flawless skin, and you're not worried about the talc issue, it may work for you but for me it's a no go. It did appeal to me at first glance. My 45-year-old skin, needs 3 in 1 products that hide my pores and wrinkles rather than enhance them.

Woukd be good if you alrwasy have a good complexion. Not so good if your goal was to cover dark spots etc.

I like the ease of application and the shade works for this emergency shade change. The coverage is good, but does not last very long.
