So its nearly summer now so it's time to break out the tinted moisturizers! What is everone's favorite product? Also, does anyone have a reccomendation for a TM that won't cause breakouts and has SPF? Thanks!

Stila, BB, Cover Girl, Origins and Clinique all have good SPFs with broad spectrum protection. My personal fave is Stila at the moment - easy to blend.

I like MACs actually, because it's the only one I've tried that has a slight shimmer to it. I like that in my tinted moisturizer, and it makes it easier to travel with, since I don't have to tote along a pigment to mix in with it that way.

i really love Origins Bare Face Makeup SPF15. I used to use the MAC Select Tint SPF15, but this Origins one works just as good for a lot less...about $16

i loved mac's select tint, but couldn't get a good color match. they were all too orange or too pink. right now i'm using neutrogena healthy skin enhancer, which is nice and neutral and has spf 20.

I have never bought a tinted moisterizer, i wear foundation and moisterizer so to buy a TM would be a waste of money i would hardly use it, when i do want a TM i mix some of my moisterizer (c.o bigelow light lotion moisterizer) with some of my mac hyper real foundation. I get alot of compliments on how my skin is glowing when i do this....

There is no difference! TM is basically lotion with some color. What you're doing saves money, so why buy a separate TM?

I use Neutrogena Healthy Defense daily moisturizer. It has a light tint and spf 30. I'm happy with the color but I still have to wear a sunblock over it to stay pale

I personally prefer using a proper sunscreen underneath my makeup base, as most makeup that contain SPF is unstable and doesn't give you adequate protection.

I've just gotten hooked onto Neutrogena's Skin Clearing Clean Tint - a sheer tint foundation. love it love it. it has BHA in it so no more cosmetic breakouts for me. Some ppl have complained about the scent, but it doesn't smell bad to me at all!

Neutorgena Healthy Skin Enhancer is the very best TM I have ever tried! I love that it has spf20 AND an expiration date on the bottom. I think cosmetics should have an expiration date.

I was about to order that! Hehe. I learned about Becca from looking at primers at Sephora.

I TOTALLY love Becca's LSC. Kinda pricey but my absolute favorite.

Sisley new tinted moisturizer!!Big rave for this!!!.I used Clarins,YSL,Lancome and BB,but no one beats Sisley.I got samples in shade #2Beige dore,and it,s great to give a sunny glow to a fair complexion.My match shade should be #1,but Beige dore gives me just a bit of colour without being obvious.Love it!
