YOUR HOLY GRAIL DAYTIME MOISTURIZER (WITH SPF)

Hello beauties! First ever Sephora forum post for me, figured there is no better place to ask for advice!

 

I am looking for YOUR PERFECT daytime moisturizer with SPF (15-20 minimum) to use daily. I have relatively normal skin (can get a little dry in the winter and a little oily in the summer), and I have suffered from light adult acne in my early twenties (which I am now undergoing microdermabrasion treatments to erase).

 

The ideal potion should be lightweight, anti-aging, definitely contain sun protection and mildly scented/unscented - I've used some really awesome products in the past (FRESH, Peter Thomas Roth, Laura Mercier, Dermalogica) but I am really hoping to find a perfect all-in-one solution, as I'm not a fan of layering sunscreen with moisturizer.

 

Help a girl out! Thanks X

@TheSCorrente Josie Maran Daily Argan Moisturizer SPF 47 is what I use. It works really well for sun protection and plays nice with other makeup products. There is even a slightly tinted version if you are looking to even out skin tone.

I really like Paula's choice skin recovery moisturizer with spf 30. It is a physical sunscreen but it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave a white cast. Is hydrating but not greasy.  They often have sales of 15% or 20% off. Comes in 2 oz which is a pretty generous size IMO.

Clinique pep SPF20 is great. I am looking forward to try origins moisturizer spf40

Hello - my go-to HG is the Perricone PhotoPlasma.  It's a higher SPF than you listed initially, but it's really great. Super light-weight but still moisturizing. Does not smell at all like sunscreen and really protects, even when I've been stuck out at altitude in full sun. I seem to have trouble finding products that layer well and this layers beautifully and has never interfered with any foundation or other serum or primer I've tried. Good luck finding a great product that works for you! @TheSCorrente
