tinted moisturiser recommendations

the_devil_made_me_do_it

I never wear foundation, but fancy trying a tinted moisturiser. Any recommendations? I don't want to pay a fortune, but am looking for a decent one that is ok on sensitive skin & dosen't clog the pores.

Benefit You Rebel, or You Rebel lite depending on your skin tone. About £20 a tube. Lasts ages. Good coverage and doesn't block pores and the added bonus of SPF.

I've also tried the Virgin Vie one which was 'OK' but not as good as the Benefit.

It's not cheap but Laura Mercier Illuminating tinted moisturiser is one of my all time favourites. I have extremely reactive, sensitive skin and it agrees with me. It goes on like a dream and gives your skin a nice dewy appearance without being heavy or clogging. It is about £32 per tube but I use it every day and a tube lasts me about 4-5 months.

Really depends on your ethnic/racial group. Pasty Celtic and Viking faces have the devil of a job getting anything whatsoever that doesn't look tangoed. The palest I have found have been by Clinique. Yellow tinted/European/Mediterranean can go pretty much most places.

I suspect that, as you have sensitive skin, you are more likely to be in the pale and interesting group. I've never tried as I tend not to use it - using a long acting sun block from Denmark is more important to me or I fry - but Jelly Bon Bon are supposed to be good for the real red heads out there.

Thanks for the recommendations. Bit dubious about benefit products. My skin had a really bad reaction to one of their products, so I'm abit wary about trying this range again.

Thats the excat same experience I had with benifit makeup ..... not sure whether to try this again I really want a tinted moisturiser thats good.... benifit is a very popular make up which alot of girls love so...might try again only slightly and see if it will be ok. oo bit nervous though

I have No.17 from boots, in ivory and its fine.

But was at a Bodyshop party at the weekend. The lady used a tinted moisturiser on the girl who was having the "make over" and it did a really good job. Evened out her skin town and gave a really nice finish.

Only comes in one shade - which is supposed to fit all. And all their stuff is supposed to be dermatogically tested.

Can't see it on their website, but remember is was £8.80.
Would have bought one myself, if i didn't already have a stock of foundations and tinted moisturiser. And i am from the pale and interesting skin group.

I use this but I've never noticed any difference in the shade of my skin. It has a SPF of 15.
I've used Boots No 7 but found it caked my face like foundation, I didn't like it.

I like Estee Lauder tinted daywear or M&S Autograph. No orange at all.

Another vote for Laura Mercier! I have the oil free tinted moisturiser in the lightest shade.
