Tinted moisturizer?

[GoldenLocks]

Hello~

I have very fair skin with blue undertones, and I use an acne medication that tends to make my skin a little dry and flaky.

I was really satisfied with my Missha M BB cream which typically gives my skin a dewy glow, but since the onset of winter and the lack of humidity, it's been looking dull and dry and making my scaly skin disgustingly noticeable.

So I figured I'd pick up a tinted moisturizer to replace it. I just need something light that will even out my foundation, and ideally leave a healthy sheen, nothing matte looking.

I've heard good things about the tinted moisturizers from e.l.f., but some of the reviews say that even the fairest tone is yellow-y... Can anyone recommend me something they think would work? Thanks.

Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer is pricey, but one of the nicest tinted moisturizer. It's not the lightest foundation, but has a nice shade arrangement to match your skin better. Plus, it's super moisturizing!

I agree with the LM tinted moisturizer rec - it's really nice!

I second the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser, even if it's too moisturizing for me.. but I think it would be perfect for you. I love the finish and the coverage, just too rich for my oily skin.

Hmm when I was on acne medication I was recommended to use neutrogena tinted moisturiser. I thought it was ok, but needed to put it on my neck and chest too otherwise it would look like a bad tan line. Make-sure you look for moisturisers for sensitive skin and SPF as your skin will also be sensetive to the sun

I believe TARTE's tinted moisturizer is quite nice as well!

Be careful with the tarte - I bought it, but retired it because it's shimmery.

Believe it or not, Paula's choice TM works great for me and just the right coverage, if you can find your shade in her limited range. Lancome Aquafusion was my HG but they d/c
it.

My favorite is Becca's Luminous Skin Color. They have a good selection for pale skin.
