I am not a big fan of tinted moisturizers, but everyone I know who is swears by Laura Mercier's. Mercier's is also a huge seller in her line and gets good reviews from beauty editors and customers.

I used to have this one a few years back. Issue I always had was I didn't know what shade to get. There were none labeled light neutral. The one it said i should pick looked too orange. I did like the finish though. I had the ivory but it always seemed to light.

I was going to try the yummy skin tint after my doll 10 was gone but shade 4 is still out of stock and I really like the doll 10 one so i am just going to stick with the one I love. It's a lot like that cover girl ageless where it looks like it had skincare beads that have to break open. As soon as you swirl your brush in it is mixed up. It's very watery. But so pretty. My skin is really good so I just don't need anything heavier.

Since giving up traditional foundations years ago, I've used several different brands of tinted moisturizers. I've had to find new ones as older formulations were discontinued. I've even mixed two different tinted moisturizers to get a shade that matches my skin better.

Right now I am using this one.

Another vote here for Laura Mercier . Have used it for some time and am still happy with it . Has broad spectrum SPF 30.

Wondering if anyone has found a tinted moisturizer that they love. I used the Philosphy Tinted Moisturizer for years and they've discontinued it. Since then I've tried many including Clinique and Estee Lauder. Those two were both so heavy - more like foundation; others no coveragge. Please send any suggestions . Thanks.

@betty423 I used DRMTLGY tinted spf on my face and the clear one on my neck and chest to protect my clothing. After at least a year of using it, I noticed it was too dark for my fair skin even though it says universal tint. It's a wonderful product just too dark for me.

I now went back to Skinceuticals spf tinted and untinted which is a physical block with the ingredients the lifeguards use. It does match my fair skin and if you use just the untinted it does leave a white cast like most of this type that goes away in about 5 minutes. Yes, it's expensive, but it's necessary to protect my skin since it's more necessary since I use Retin A. It's worth the price to me. I apply any serums before on cleansed skin and my moisturizer afterwards. Your sunscreen is the last step in skincare.

***Please don't depend on SPF in a tinted moisturizer or foundation. You need 1/4 tsp. to protect your skin and no one uses that much tinted moisturizer or foundation. Also be sure you apply spf to you neck...shows age sooner than your face.
