For the summer I would like a quick natural look - does anyone know a good tinted moisturiser? I have red hair and fair skin.:)

I Use Bobby brown but probably too thick for what you want. Laura mercier is supposed to be fab And comes in an oil free version. I hear good things of becca.

The No 7 one is not bad if you dont need too much coverage and they have a nice range of shades.

My favourite is the the Mac face and body tint. It comes a huge bottle and it gives you a nice sheen.

Yes to both bobbi brown and laura mercier - I'm currently using the oil free laura mercier and it has a thicker consistency than the bobbi brown - I'm thinking about going back to bobbi brown for summer coverage.

Can recommend the Laura Mercier illuminated tinted moisturiser - brought some on Saturday and love it. here I have very pale skin and its a really good match to my skin tone but gives it a lovely dewy glow. Really light to wear and smells nice too. HTH!

Thanks everyone! I do use Bobbi Brown foundation atm, so might give that a try. The others look fab too though so I feel a shoppping trip coming on! Which shade of the Laura Mercier did you get Ollie?

Just seen this - I got Bare Radiance - the palest one and its a good match to my (v pale) skin tone.

lilaloves · 23/03/2011 17:44

I think its called salon skincare

LaurieFairyCake · 23/03/2011 17:52

What about that olay moisturiser foundation thingy that thandie Newton advertises? That looks good.

Don't buy the Estee Lauder one, I got it last summer it's crap.

rookiemater · 23/03/2011 17:53

I have used the Clinique one for years I love it plus it has SPF15 so protects your skin.

Flakes · 23/03/2011 17:57

Dermalogica- nice and light and really evens out skin.

polyhymnia · 23/03/2011 18:31

Another vote for Laura Mercier - have tried quite a few and always come back to that.

Rassy · 23/03/2011 18:58

We don't have a Laura Mercier in my 'city' - really want to try it as well! Sad

HelenBaaBaaBlackSheep · 23/03/2011 19:46

watching with interest as I have similar colouring and find most tinted moisturisers far too dark, clinique city block is the best I've found so far but a bit greasy

Wow what a great response - thanks everyone Smile

Now my only problem is which one to choose...Grin

I fancy trying the Laura Mercier one but I would need to travel further afield to get it so I might have to try another in the meantime which I can get locally! Truly spoilt for choice!

I use Olay touch of faoundation in the summer months when I feel full foundation is too much
