Aspenstar,
Thank you very much for recently sending me the generous sample of Dr. Denese SPF 30 Defense Day Cream! It was great to be able to try this product because I've been curious about it for some time. It goes on smoothly and feels good on my skin, but it has a matte finish. I know some people would like the matte finish, but since I'm so dry I prefer a moist, dewy look (I bet that comment makes the oily people cringe--ha!) Also, the tint doesn't have enough color for me to wear alone. I know you said you add Laura Geller Balance or Glo Fusion Intuitive Bronzer on top of the moisturizer for more color. So for now, the Chanel Hydramax + Tinted seems to be the best 3-in-1 for me because it gives my face the moisture, glow and color that I like. Thanks again, for letting me try this product. Please let me know if there's anything that I use that you'd like to sample. You're a kind and generous person who adds so much to this forum.
PS--I picked up another one of our YSL golden lip glosses (just in case).
