Going to agree with Anon poster above me that I consider it a plus this product offers the dewy finish of a tinted moisturizer/bb cream without the inclusion of SPF as I prefer to apply separate more effective SPF regardless of which foundation I wear that day. Before I buy, how is the overall quality of this product and packaging?

I'm highly allergic to the majority of SPF products and can only use very limited sunscreen products. Have been on the hunt for a good tinted product to use on top of my regular sunscreen and it's such a pain how majority of foundations and tinted moisturisers come with SPF these days, which is so pointless Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-57708990128066312352013-05-08T23:22:30.970-04:002013-05-08T23:22:30.970-04:00Hi Anonymous (RE: EB Taiwanese production),

I have been purchasing EB products since the conception of the brand (while he was out with just lipsticks only -- the original ones have magnetic snaps and the formula is smooth like butter). Over time, I did notice that the product quality is not as good when the products are made in Taiwan.

Well, to EB's defense, I actually prefer foundation/TM without SPF since I wear a good SPF base and some of the sunscreen ingredients can interact with each other, making them unstable. But like you, I don't know how this product may fill the niche in my carefully selected cosmetic drawer.
