Tinted moisturiser for sensitive skin

Can anyone recommend a good tinted moisturiser or BB cream for sensitive skin?

I recently tried Garnier’s BB cream after reading rave reviews. I really like the way it brightens and evens out my skin tone, but it’s brought me out in spots! I suspect it’s the suncream element, as I really struggle to find suncream/SPF moisturiser that doesn’t. (Nivea Moisture Boost for sensitive skin is the only one I get on with for daily use/Ultrasun for holidays).

I normally just wear loose powder onto bare skin (with a bit of primer on my t-zone) but now I am hooked on how much better I look with a bit of help! I like a more natural look and don’t want to go back down the foundation route.

I’ve been googling but feel a bit overwhelmed by choice, and I don’t want to make expensive mistakes if I can avoid it. For context, I am very fair though my skin tone is warmer than cool (gold jewellery looks better on me), with strawberry blonde hair. Oh and super dry skin - I needed to apply moisturiser before using the Garnier BB cream.

Thanks!

I have sensitive skin and was ok with Laura Mercier oil free.

I second Laura Mercier - I have rubbish skin and have not had any adverse reactions to that which is a miracle in itself!

Ah great, sounds like Laura Mercier is one to try. Thank you both!
