Yes, Laura Mercier's tinted moisturizers are EXCELLENT, just the right amount of light coverage for the summer without feeling like you are wearing any foundation at all - gives your skin a beautiful healthy glow

Re: Tinted moisturizers?
i just bought duwop's TM called 'revolotion face' from nordies rack, it was on sale for $10 (orig $29) it has some light reflecting pigment in it and spf 15. i bought the dark beige color called conchita and and mixed it with colorstay to make it darker. so far so good.

Tinted Moisturizer?
Can anyone reccomend one? I try to stay away from any drugstore lines mainly because i have used rimmel, maybelline, covergirl-ect... and all of their skincare products made my skin breakout insanely. I am currently using Bare Escentuals in 1.2 or Fairly Light. In MAC i am NC 20 if that helps any. I have combination skin.
The reason for the switch is that my skin has been really terrible lately- so flakey, i look like a crocodile. Its bad. And the BE isn't helping because it is a powder and just makes it so much worse. I don't need much coverage- i just need to even out my skin tone and smooth everything out.
Thanks Guys!

Re: Tinted Moisterizer?
there's a few other threads about tinted moisturizers, so it might help doing a search for it.
anyways, i've heard good things about laura merciers tinted moisturizers so i went to sephora to get a sample of it. it goes on great and it's not too thick or too oily, i went with the oil-free version. for a simple look, i just dab some concealer for my under eyes, apply tinted moisturizer, blush stick, a wash of eyeshadow and mascara. voila--done! try this out!
if you don't want to pick something up, you might want to try and make your own tinted moisturizer with your favorite lotion and use some of the BE foundation. i used to do that and it worked fine for me. for a light application, just add a touch of the foundation and mix it with your favorite moisturizer.
for the flakies--i would recommend exfoliating your face regularly. it really helps buff away the dead layer of skin to create a smooth base. if your skin is tight and dry, i would go with a thicker moisturizer for the night time. i use the aspirin honey mask and a few other homemade masks. i did post a thread on this and there's a few other threads around for this. hope this all helps, enjoy!

Re: Tinted Moisterizer?
Thanks so much lotus! I had heard about Laura Mercier's. Its along drive to my Sephora. But- i will go and check it out. Thanks!
iluvmac- i am going to go ahead and order that one for the time being- because i already know the shade i am in MAC. And i am going to go try Laura Merciers too whenever i get there. Because if i don't like the MAC- my mother is the exact same shade as i am, NC20. So, it works out.
Thanks guys!

Tinted BODY Moisturizers???
Hey all, need your help! Anyone know of any tinted body moisturizers?
I know DuWop has one. I think Perfekt beauty does, too. I was thinking about possibly 'watering down' MUFEs face and body, but I dont know what I would use to do so. I would just use a moisturizer, but dont want it to ruin the wear and formulation of Face and Body.
Ideas?
Thanks so much!

Re: Tinted Moisterizer?
Thanks ladies, i have Studio Fix Fluid- but, its to heavy for me on a regular basis. If i am having bad skin in the winter- its my go to, but other than that its just so darn heavy. In the meantime- my package should get here tomorrow- i am mixing my bare escentuals with my current moisterizer. I change about every 3 months i suppose- to test new things, see what works best. Nothing tops my charts. Thanks for all the suggestions!!!!!!!
