Tinted moisturizer

bengals gal — Fri, 24 Jan 2014 17:13:19 GMT

I am on the search for a really good tinted moisturizer for sensitive skin.

I currently use the Josie Maran Protect and Perfect tinted moisturizer that comes in the bottle but she is in the process of reformulating it and it won't be available again until April.

Any suggestions?

I have found Laura Mercier to have the best.

I have combo/oily/sensitive skin (sensitive in that everything breaks it out) & I love the tarte tinted treatment bb primer thingie with SPF30.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Dusty- Do you use foundation over it?

I have enjoyed Clinique's Tinted Moisturizer - It's one of my must haves - I wait until bonus time and get goodies with it. If you have a Clinique counter near you - you can ask for a sample.

I agree that Laura Mercier is my favorite TM - comes in an oil-free version too and shades are very forgiving. Sometimes Nordstrom even carries it in a jumbo size tube (which I have) I don't wear powder over it because I don't use powder at all.

I second this recommendation- this is a wonderful product, with many shade choices, which is great! It moisturizes, blurs imperfections, and feels weightless on the skin.

Sounds like I need to check out the Laura Mercier! Thanks everyone!

Hi bengals gal. Have you tried Dr. Denese's SPF 30 Defense Day Cream? It is a tinted physical broad spectrum SPF cream that I have used for years. There is only one shade but it has been my favorite for many years and keep trying different tinted moisturizers and always come back to this product. No chemical sunscreen and the color just blends right into your skin. I so wanted the new JM tinted moisturizer to work for me but can't do yellow toned colors so purchased her Fair and it just doesn't match my skin. Too pale but at least not yellow. Back I went to my HG and have just never found anything better. I usually just wear the DD SPF 30 but on date nights I do put a Lancôme or Chanel foundation (since both these lines make foundations for us fair pink toned gals) on top but for everyday usually just the DD SPF 30.

I haven't tried the DR. D but I will check it out too.

I have a very sensitive chin that gets itchy, red and broken out with almost everything and now that Josie is messing with this formula I need to find something else.

Luckily, a good friend of mine has an almost full bottle of the Josie tinted moisturizer in the bottle that she is going to send me so that should hold me over until I can find something else that works for me.

I am one of those fair skinned gals too but I have more of a neutral undertone. I just recently purchased the Tarte Amazonian Clay foundation in the Fair Sand which is for yellow undertones and it is a perfect match for my skin. I don't see any yellow in it at all.

I just purchased the Dr. Denese discovery kit with the day cream in it Sweetiepie. Thanks for the recommendation!

I really like Dr. Denese 30 spf day cream. There is some coverage. Some days I put foundation over it, some days I don't. I get the big tubes and they last a long time.

How about Josie's Matchmaker foundation. IMO its more of a tinted moiisturizer than a foundation. It has very light coverage and feels great. I use mine many ways. I will wear Laura Geller's Balance and Brighten over it for more covage or I will mix the Matchmaker foundation with primer and make a BB cream.

Oh I'm excited for you! I don't think that you will be sorry. I never had sensitive skin until just a few years ago and that is one of the reason's I have continued to use Dr. Denese. I have NEVER had a negative or sensitivity reaction to the trio that I use every single day which I think is in your discovery kit. I have been on autodelivery for a trio that will be in one of her upcoming TSV's I think on Feb. 14th. I do add in Vitamin C every other day and retin A once a week and a few other Dr. Denese products. I will also try a few Isomers products every so often but always return to Dr. Denese and keep the trio on hand always. Good luck and keep us posted. I had zero results with Perricone but we all have different skin and different needs. Have a great weekend bengals gal! I think I mentioned before that most days I just use her tinted SPF for my tinted moisturizer but for nights out or a special meeting will use a Lancôme or Chanel foundation on top for more coverage.

I use Laura Geller tinted moisturizer in the Winter and her other one in the summer (it feels lighter to me).
