So Ms. Faux is so very sad. She just discovered two products that I'm deeply in love with for summer, just as it begins to trail off into the sunset. The first is...
What is it? According to Walgreens.com...
For Dry Skin
- Helps Intensely Lock in Moisture
- Helps Soothe Dry Skin for 24 Hours
- Oil Free Moisture for Dry Skin
Garnier Moisture Rescue Refreshing Gel-Cream helps to provides long-lasting hydration in a lightweight, oil-free formula. The fast-absorbing gel-cream instantly penetrates skin and helps to lock-in moisture for 24 hours. Antioxidant fruit waters help defend skin from external aggressors while vitamin E soothes and conditions. Instantly: Skin looks and feels more supple and smooth. In 1 Hour: Skin's moisture barrier is strengthened to help prevent dryness. With regular use of this moisturizer: Continuously moisturized skin is strengthened and looks healthier
Made in USA.
What does Ms. Faux think?
Not a winter moisturizer I don't think, especially when you have dry skin. It is perfect though for those warmer, sweaty months. It does what it says and helps to prevent dryness. It definitely moisturized my skin very well without feeling sticky which you would expect a gel to do. Well at least I think that about gel. I did love it because it didn't feel heavy or like it would cause a build up of oil like creams. Also... MADE IN THE USA!!! USA! USA!
O.k. I'm done. I also like Clarins... a lot... and that's French so... you know. :)
Next... Oh my God. Ms. Faux needs a moment.
What is it? According to ULTA.com...
Details-
Keep the sun and environment at bay with this SPF 20 broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen, a tinted, light rose scented, titanium dioxide based formula (for those who are zinc sensitive) made with 98% natural ingredients. Organic acai oil - high in omegas-3/6/9, vitamins B1/2/3, plus antioxidant vitamins C and E - delivers a powerful defense against aging. Organic Sunflower Seed Extract promotes elasticity while organic Linseed Oil, containing Alpha-Linolenic Acids, reduces redness and irritation. The phyto-protector Plankton Extract rejuvenates, as organic Cucumber Extract calms skin.

What does Ms. Faux think?
It is a tinted CC SPF ya'll. What does that mean, while it really isn't a BB cream and a tinted moisturizer it is a CC cream which for those not in the know means a color corrector. It is perfect for those quick runs out the door on a day off. It helps to disguise color issues like redness and sallowness so perfect for perfecting your face on those no make up days, but still adding the protection of an SPF.
This cream was gorgeous. A bit matte and for dryer skin would probably not work as well in the winter, but for those sweaty summer months it would be perfect.

Like the idea, but wish they had a tinted moisturizer? Well you are in luck. They do. Try the Mineral Face SPF 30 Matte Tint $36 at Ulta.com.
Ms. Faux has not tried this product but can't imagine it is much different of a formulation, but probably just more coverage. I will check it out and get back to you. This would be perfection for an everyday tinted moisturizers if it works as well.
So there you go. If it warm where you are, give them a try. I'm kind of in love.
So have you tried any of these products? What did you think?
What are your favorite Summer products.
Ms. Faux Wants to Know. Leave it in the comments.
Also if ya'll love it please tell all of your friends and follow her on the following sites. If you don't... tell your enemies and just sit back and laugh at how they were sent to my ramblings. And remember... if you don't look good, then Ms. Faux be lookin' like a damn fool.
