Before making this purchase, I had never tried any products from No7 before. For anyone who doesn't already know, No7 is a brand developed by Boots (which is also available in Walgreens for any American readers), which consists of makeup and skincare products amongst other things.

I've been looking for a tinted moisturiser for a while now but was struggling to find one which I actually liked. Others which I have tried previously have either been too orange on my skin, even when using the lightest shade. I have heard plenty of good reviews about No7 products so I decided there was no harm in trying this one.

Everything that it says on the packaging is 100% true, this is the softest, most hydrating moisturiser I have ever used it my life. Not too much so that it would cause problems for those with oily or combination skin, but is also great for those like myself with dry skin - the is just the right balance for all skin types. It also doesn't leave your skin really orange either as some do, instead it just gives you such a natural looking healthy glow.

I also love that it has SPF 15 and 5 star UVA, as this is the sort of product I would wear more in warmer weather. We all know what it's like in the middle of Summer when wearing a full foundation is just too heavy and feel like it's ready to melt of your face! So being able to replace it with this and not having to worry about applying sunscreen is an added bonus.

I bought mine in the shade Fair, when applied it is barely visible on the skin so is definitely perfect for those of us with pale skin. However, it could be quite build able, depending on how much you apply and what with. I believe it is also available in darker shades too.

For anyone who is interested in giving it a try or is just looking for some new suggestions, it costs £12 which I think is fairly reasonable for the quality of the product, and can be purchased from the Boots website or in store.
