Looking for Natural Sheer Coverage Foundation or Tinted Moisturizer/BB Cream

I've finally gotten my skin pretty clear, except for a couple blemishes here and there, and would really like a good sheer coverage foundation for a more natural look.  Could anyone make any recommendations for natural looking foundations / tinted moisturizers / bb creams for oily/combination skin? 

Re: Looking for Natural Sheer Coverage Foundation or Tinted Moisturizer/BB Cream

I've been using MAC's Face and Body for years.  I buy the large 4.0 fl. oz. bottle and it lasts me about a year.  It's sheer, but just enough to cover the redness and some imperfections.  I have combo skin, so this gets oily in my t zone and cheeks, but I set it with powder and it looks great.  This foundation is perfect for summer.

 

Lately I've been adding the Milk Blur Foundation over the F&B, and it is great for extra coverage in certain areas.

 

Also, the Bare Minerals Bare Skin serum foundation is really nice.

Supergoop CC cream! Feels like bare skin, looks like medium coverage.

@yankeefaithful tipped me off to Dr. Jart+, and I also really like it.  The shades are limited, but there is some difference in the various versions of it.  I suggest going to the store and testing a couple if you can.  I didn't really like the premium BB that she mentions, but the black label detox blended into my skin really well.  You have to massage it in like a sunscreen, not leave it on the surface like foundation.  

Happy shopping!

I’ve tried the smashbox and Nars products and personally liked the Nars tinted moisturizer. I use a little amount and it works great and doesn’t look like anything’s on my face. However, with tinted moisturizers I’ve heard some people say they get a gray tinge to their face so it’s good to try the shade in store!

I also have combination skin, and my personal favorite is Nars Radiant Tinted Moisturizer. It also comes in a matte version if you prefer that finish. I find that this tinted moisturizer has great, buildable coverage. So, I only need a little for light, sheer coverage. But, I can dab on a little extra to cover redness.

@BeautyInPink23. You might check into Dr.Jart Premium BB balm. It goes on so easy and is a primer, skin corrector and sunscreen all in one. My skin is combination,  leaning toward oily (not as bad now with the cold weather) and it works great for me. I hope this helps.
