Best tinted moisturisers?

25 replies

canyouseethesea · 16/04/2020 07:49

Hi everyone

I'm 27 and usually wear Estee Lauders Double Wear, however, being in lockdown and not wearing make up has made me realise I don't need a full coverage like that and my skin is still youthful.

If anybody has any recommendations for tinted moisturisers or similar that give a glowy healthy look and just evens out skin tone please leave a comment.

My skin is combination but can get oily in my T-Zone.

Thank you x

Boots City Light tinted moisturiser - just a hint of colour, lasts all day, love it!

I’m fairly impressed with the ordinary serum fountain. It’s definitely foundation not tinted moisturiser but significantly lighter than DW.

Estee lauder day wear adapts to your skin tone and has a lovely glow to it. I've worn it for years

Not technically a tinted moisturiser but I love Chanel Vitalumière Aqua, I just use a little concealer where extra coverage is needed.

ChloeDecker · 17/04/2020 09:58

Heliocare 360 Fluid Cream is my go to. The SPF 50 is an added bonus too!

CremeDeSudo · 17/04/2020 10:39

Clinique Anti Blemish BB cream. It's brilliant stuff, especially if you have oily skin. It's light and a bottle lasts ages. SPF 45.

Not enough for days when I need spot coverage, but perfect when you just need a bit of balancing!

lindyloo57 · 17/04/2020 17:05

No7 tinted sun cream is good spf 50 or spf 30 I just put a little powder over the top, to take down the shine.

BunnytheHoneyBee · 17/04/2020 17:08

Laura Mercier one is good

Body shop do some that are ok

I’ve got a Tarte one and I like that

But generally prefer mineral make up for a hit of something

violetbunny · 17/04/2020 17:12

I have combination/oily skin and I really rate the Chanel one. I have a lot of tinted moisturisers and this one lasts longest on my skin by far and has a beautiful natural look.

MUA here......what's your budget op?

canyouseethesea · 17/04/2020 19:37

Thank you so much everyone! Will look into the ones suggested x

@dietcoker ahhh thank you! I don't mind spending up to £30 as long as it lasts a couple of months

The Clinique Moisture Surge tinted moisturiser is lovely. Is what am using lately. I use a little Lily Lolo finishing powder over the top (mineral/ I use the flawless silk one but they also do a matte)

I also tried the bar minerals complexion rescue which felt fab but unfortunately doesn't go pale enough for my skin tone. Texture and longevity was good though.

dietcoker · 18/04/2020 07:52

Probably nars or laura mercier tinted moisturiser have a slightly "dewier" appearance and you can build up if you want more coverage.......
Bare minerals complexion rescue is also great.......I sometimes mix mine with a touch of highlighter
Budget wise, L'Oréal or garnier's BB creams are good also. Again you can add highlighter to these if you want
Ps those with spf sadly don't appear as dewy on the skin, so can't have both annoyingly!

SorrelForbes · 18/04/2020 07:55

IT Cosmetics - Your Skin But Better or Tropic- boost foundation. Both very very light and BB cream/tinted moisturiser esque

zippyswife · 18/04/2020 07:58

@ChloeDecker what are the shades like for heliocare? I’m fair skinned not sure which to try.

Ronia · 18/04/2020 08:02

Laura Mercier is very good.

OpticVA · 18/04/2020 08:04

I use No7 City Light and it’s fab! A little goes a long way so it lasts ages and it’s only £13!

Ronia · 18/04/2020 09:27

Forgot to say I recently switched to Bobbi Brown one it's really light and lovely

Lua · 18/04/2020 09:30

Another vote for Clinique Moisture Surge tinted moisturiser. and I am quite older than you......and still does a decent job Smile

TheRealCaroleBaskin · 18/04/2020 09:35

Heliocare 360......comes in three different shades and it's SPF50 as well. Think it's about £35?

BeeBella · 18/04/2020 12:52

I've just received Erborian BB cream from their website and it's great for my oily skin. I look like I've got 'something' on but it just feels like moisturiser! Definitely recommend. You can get trial size versions (15ml) to try out and free delivery.

rabbitsnose · 18/04/2020 13:00

MAC face and body is the best, hands down. 120mls for the same price as most 30ml foundations too

canyouseethesea · 18/04/2020 18:28

Wow so many to look at! I'm liking the look or Laura Mercier to be honest, also might invest in her brightening powder. Mac foundations/creams bring me out in a rash for some reason! Although I love their lipsticks.

Optic VA - sorry to barge in by the way, do you use the Boots tinted moisturiser all the time instead of foundation? I am tempted by it but am so used to wearing foundation.
