I love Laura Merceir Tinted Moisturizer. I always borrow it from my Mom when I raid her makeup. It is very easy to use and great for those mornings when you dont have much time to get ready. The consistency is light yet velvety.  It has medium coverage and looks very natural. I love this product to use when my skin is clean because it doesnt clog pores and its non greasy. When im not as fortunate with my skin I use it as a base and apply bare minerals over it. This product is easy to use and the large tube lasts a long time. The one slight downfall is that this product is very expensive and doesnt come in many shades. Fortunately If you are using this product as a base you dont need a perfect color match. As for th price I was so exited to discover that sephora now sells a "to go" size of this. Since a small amount of the product goes such a long way you can get away with buying less. I would recomend this to all of my friends

Because I don't like the heavy look of traditional foundation (and I'm really lousy at applying it!), I am always on the look out for a product with great, blendable coverage.  I've used mineral foundations for years and while I liked how easily they blend into my skin, I never felt like I had the level of coverage I wanted.  So, when I started seeing tinted moisturizers, I decided to give them a try.  After a few attempts, I stumbled upon Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 20 (in Sand).  I ordered a small tube and, despite the price, decided to give it a try.  I have been pleasantly surprised with this product.  It has a light texture and blends very easily.  The coverage is light, but I find that I can easily layer mineral foundation on top of this for more coverage (and still maintain a natural look).  This product is described as lightweight, flawless coverage and I couldn't agree more!

Okay so normally when it comes to makeup I go for drugstore brands. I am nowhere near made of money, after all. BUT I got this in a value pack that Laura Mercier had out a while back and it has since become my HG (Holy Grail) foundation. It's not technically supposed to be a foundation, but my skin is quite fair and even. Plus, I don't want to appear like I have makeup on! I just want to look natural. And this moisturizer does that! It's smooth, easy to apply, and lasts all day. I get shiny every once and a while, but it certainly doesn't make my face more greasy than normal... everyone's just naturally oily.  I wouldn't count on it for the sunscreen factor. I still wear sunscreen UNDER my tinted moisturizer to prevent sun damage. I usually set this foundation with a powder and obviously use concealer. This is definitely not a foundation you'd want to use if you're looking for a heavier foundation or something with more coverage.

Once you apply the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer on your face using your fingers and smoothening it with a sponge, it makes your skin look smoother and somewhat glowing because it has an SPF 20 on it. You'll notice that your skin would look more flawless because it gives a decent coverage of any blemishes you may have, acting like a light foundation/concealer. What i really like about this product is that you somehow already have 3 things put into 1 (moisturizer, sun protection and foundation/concealer). Overall, I would love to have this product to keep.

I had heard people raving about this for years but I never bothered to try it.  Recently I decided to give it a whirl and I'm totally hooked.  My skin is uneven and I think this does a good job of evening out my skin tone and other problems while still looking natural and avoiding a mask-like appearance.  The only drawbacks for me are the price and the low SPF - I might try to combine it with a higher SPF moisturizer in the summertime.

I have been a loyal Laura Mercier customer for many years.  While only carried in a select few department stores, this line is worth going out of your way to find.  The coverage you get with the tinted moisturizer is perfect for my skin.  The coverage is light to medium, but leaves your skin feeling natural, soft and able to breath.  The look is dewy, and application is effortless.

I received the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer as a sample after ordering another Laura Mercier product from the online store. I prefer the more natural less caked on look when it comes to foundation and this is an easy way to achieve that look. I am a stay at home mom to a three year old, so anything easy and quick gets top ratings from me. It goes on just like any other facial lotion, but has a tint to it like foundation. The price of the moisturizer is expensive in my opinion, but I don't wear make up on a daily basis, so it will last me longer than most women. Also, shipping seems to be a bit high on the website, so I generally wait until they offer free shipping before ordering. I am surely becoming a Laura Mercier fan.

If you're looking for an everyday make-up and you don't need full coverage this is perfect for you! I've been using this product for a few years now and it never fails me. I normally have oily skin so I get the oil-free moisturizer. I get the occasional break-out here and there and have a somewhat uneven skin tone so I just use this and it covers my small acne spots and evens my skin tone out. I don't normally like wearing a lot of make-up so this does the trick. The coverage is also buildable so the more you need the more you can put on. I don't normally like to do that though so I'll cover up the harder spots with some foundation only in certain areas. What's also great about this product is that it has SPF of 20 which is the minimum you need. At the end of the day you might get a little bit oily but it's nothing too noticeable.

When I went from a working mom to a stay at home mom, my morning routine changed dramatically. No longer do I take a shower and put on full hair and make-up -- often, after my older child leaves for school, I go and work out. Sometimes I do housework, and then run out to do some errands. I take my little one to the library or the park, and I just feel strange putting on heavy foundation and powder. It looks strange with my tshirt and yoga pants, I often sweat it off or smudge it on my kids' clothing -- but without it, I am starting to look less like a carefree, natural mom-about-town and more like a frazzled lady who just leapt out of bed. A sales person recommended this tinted moisturizer, and I am loving it! It is the perfect answer: it gives my face a little glow without being heavy, and evens out my skin tone in a very subtle way. A little translucent powder sets the look, and with a little bronzer (and mascara) I am good to go. I wore it yesterday to an informal dinner and college basketball game, and when I got home, it still looked as nice as when I put it on. Magic!

Yes, it started with a sample, and now I use this nearly every day. My trick-- mositurizer, smashbox primer, laura's wonderful tinted mositurizer and makeuo forever HD microfinish powder. This line up might make one shudder-- my skin is kick-a@@. Very clear, minmal wrinkles, pores at bay-0- and the products above will NOT give you full coverage. It provides a natural look and every item mentioned is very light on the skin. Laura Mercier has a GREAT product line and this "foundation" is no exception. Nice even coverage, but beware, if you need something thicker--and who doesn't from time to time--this is not for you Many stores that carry this line offer the product in varying sizes, so you are able to try it without spending a lot initially. A very small amount is all that you need-- I use approximately the size of a pea and the bottle tends to last for quite awhile,  and leaves my skin looking fabulous!  I have found that the texture of my skin tone is more even toned and tends to make my make up look much better after using the product only a few times. I have sang the praises of Laura many times before and am glad that Veiwpoints allows me to share my experience with this product to others. It really is worth it-- whether you start with the smaller size and move your way up to the jumbo-will-last-a-lifetime sized bottle, it is something that I feel any person can benefit from : )
