I need a really amazing something...
OK, so here's my problem...I never use foundation, hate it, I use tinted moisturizer...I've tried the Laura Mercier, and liked it but didn't love it...I now am using Giorgio Armanis and still don't love it...the reason I don't love them is bc my skin during the winter is dry so whenever I put tinted moisturizer on it looks soooo matte on my face, my skin looks really smooth, but very very matte...so I need either something instead of tinted moisturizer or something to make my skin look less matte...
I don't like shine, or sparkle but something to give me a more dewy look...
Thanks!

Have you tried mixing your existing tinted moisturizer with more of your own moisturizer to see if it makes a difference?

Re: I need a really amazing something...
After I put on my make-up, to let it "set" and to rehydrate it, I spritz on Solar Recover - Save Your Skin
I buy it at Wild By Nature.. Whole Foods might have it too....
I find it helps set the makeup, but also nourishes my skin...and after it dries, throughout the day, you have a healthy glow.
It is very natural & won't clog your pores.
INGREDIENTS: Distilled water, natural vitamin E, calendula, lavender oil, sesame oil, geranium oil, roman chamomile oil, sandalwood oil, and French seaweed absolute.

Re: I need a really amazing something...
Or try going to Sephora and having them try a few other tinted moisturizers on you...I think Smashbox has one, and Sephora brand does.

Re: I need a really amazing something...
Ar you usuing hte LM ol free? I didn't liekthat at all--it sunk right into my face & dried up.
I am not famialr withteh Georgio Amrani one, but I agree with trying some3 other brands in store--Sephora may even give you a sample to take home.
Tell the sales person you want a dewey look.
You could also try putting moisturizer on first, then the tinted moisturizer. I recommened in another thread, skipping primer for TM, but maybe in your case it would help, b/c the TM wouldn't sink in.

I use a spray after as well to get that dewy look after I put on my foundation. I use Mac Studio Fix.

I like You Rebel Lite (by Benefit) or Stila Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer. The Stila one really does illuminate!

Give Shiseido's tinted moisturizer a try. You can try it at Sephora's. I get dry patches on my face during the winter and I haven't had a problem with this. I put on moisturizer and then the TM on top and I get a nice glow all day and my skin looks flawless.
