<p>Lightweight and bare minimum make me think of a tinted moisturizer or a serum foundation.&nbsp; My favorite serum foundation is by Rose Inc.&nbsp; It is like the more expensive Chanel serum Foundation that has spheres of foundation suspended in a serum base.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>My favorite skin tint is by Shiseido but Sephora doesn't carry it anymore. Nars makes a good one too. If you're looking for more of a glowy look, Urban Decay has a very nice one called Hydromaniac glowy tinted hydrator.&nbsp; My favorite everyday lightweight Foundation is Nars light reflecting Foundation. It says it's a medium coverage but you can control that.</p>

My favorite lightweight foundation is NARS Light Reflecting Advanced Skincare Foundation.  It's marketed as a medium coverage foundation, but peronsally I find it to be lightweight and buildable.  Every time I wear it I look at my face in the mirror and ask myself why I don't just wear that one every day.  This finish is downright beautiful.

That is my "fancy face" foundation.  I actually find it to be too much coverage for everyday wear, @SurferWife.  Funny how different we all are.  

I have started wearing EstĂ©e Lauder's sheer version of Double Wear.  I also like Hourglass Veil skin tint.

Tinted sunblock.

   I've used and loved for years the MDSolarSciences Mineral tinted creme SPF 30 as my foundation and SPF in one.

 

   It leaves a perfected primer-like finish and it's gorgeous! 

 

     I've also recently discovered Laura Geller SPF 30 Skin perfecting primer that has a similar finish.

I also agree that the About Face Performer is a wonderful foundation! I use F2 and the color is perfect for me and the formula is amazing! I might like it even more than the Armani Luminous Silk and it is much less expensive!
