tinted moisturizer/foundation recommendation needed

Hello! I don't normally like the feel of foundation and was wondering if anyone can recommend one that is super light that will provide some coverage. Also interested in some tinted moisturizer recommendations as well. Thanks!

Re: tinted moisturizer/foundation recommendation needed

I've sworn by IT Cosmetics' CC Cream for years now. If you can find a shade that works for you, this stuff boasts incredible coverage and wear time. It also has some lovely good-for-skin ingredients in it! I wish they'd make the formula in a larger shade range, though, as it offers quite a lot of coverage and doesn't really 'adjust' like most tinted moisturizers and BBs tend to.

 

For a lightweight foundation, I've been loving the Coverage Foundation from The Ordinary. It's flawless but feels like nothing.

Hi mpoland!

 

I'm a big fan of taking a drop or two of Becca's Aqua Luminous Perfecting Foundation and mixing it with my moisturizer when I want just a hint of coverage. I can then go over any areas that need a little more by dabbing my fingers over those areas. 

 

I just love how everything looks nicely blurred together without it looking like I have a lot of makeup on. 

 

Hope this helps!

 

Bisous,

So far my favorite is the Nars Velvet Matte Skin Tint. It provides moisture without looking greasy. I am addicted. Try it with the Guerlain L'or Primer. Good luck!

Re: tinted moisturizer/foundation recommendation needed

@mpoland I've heard good things about Laura Mercier.  I also used to use Perfekt, but I think Sephora has cut back on this brand's selections.  Good luck!

Dr. Jart Premium BB is amazing. I use it year round and it does supply a decent amount of moisturize. Also the coverage is buildable.

It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream is amazing. I have dry-combo skin and this stuff is my HG. It has an SPF of 50 which is just perfect for me. Try to get a sample next time you are at Sephora!

@Anonymous Buyinga tube of IT's CC cream is on my to-do list!

Re: tinted moisturizer/foundation recommendation needed

My favorite TM will forever be the Nars Tinted Moisturizer! It gives pretty decent coverage too

Re: tinted moisturizer/foundation recommendation needed

Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer is a really nice, light one. It does give a bit of coverage and it doesn't get oily and weird as you wear it. Also, Nars Tinted Moisturizer is also a nice option. 

Re: tinted moisturizer/foundation recommendation needed

Yup! I second Laura Mercier Tint Foundation. Agree with all things @mrsbaine said. I happen to be luck out with the color they throws in for deluxe sample so it's perfect. 

Re: tinted moisturizer/foundation recommendation needed

You might want to look into BB cream! It's kind of the hybrid between light foundation and tinted moisturizer. BareMinerals Complexion Rescue is a great example, good shade range too
