I haven't tried them myself, but was going to buy the MAC today (10% off in Debenhams at the min) I was talking to my make-up obsessed friend about it earlier though and she said that it's pretty good and it does last, but doesn't give brilliant coverage. After umming and ahhing, I've just bought another bottle of my usual foundation instead - the Studio Fix one, and will just keep mixing it with moisturiser as I usually do. It gives really good coverage but stops it looking so heavy in the summer.

Mac tinted moisturiser is the one i always come back to and i am using it atm. Bobbi brown tinted moisturiser is pointless imo. It gives no coverage at all, absolutley none. Mac gives really good coverage and the colours are very natural. I am using med atm, then in autumn and early spring i use light. Sometimes i use i pin prick of my studio fix foundation just almost like a concelor and then use the tinted moisturiser along side. It gives a lovely glow and the consistency is nice.

Hi Duffy

After reading on here I bought the new clinique moisture surge, tinted foundation. It is soooo good. Great coverage, shades etc. Was a bit difficult to get at first as it was flying off the shelves

I like the Bobbi Brown one. I like the light coverage and I then just put a touch of BB stick foundation on my nose and chin. It depends on your coverage requirements I guess!

clinique all the way for me too. Have tried bobbi brown and mac and not impressed. clinique makes you look like yourself but fresher iyswim.

I also like the mac one. I can get shiny on the t-zone but this seems to minimise it. Apply with a large flat brush (not mac foundation brush, that didn't work so well) for heavier coverage to last longer. Fingertips for a lighter layer but still evens out skin tone.

Tried others including Laura Mercier but keep coming back to this.
