If you use a tinted mositurizer...

Do you use a primer or foundation as well?

I havent worn foundation in forever, skin is generally even toned and I use LM tinted mositurizer, was wondering if I wanted to use a foundation, would I use a primer...b/c I'm interested in using one ( primer) ..or trying one.

I use the LM tinted moisturizer as well and I also use a light powder over that before I apply my makeup.

Most of the time. I am running low on primer and have been skipping it the last few days and the TM is going on and staying on just fine.

Primer makes me break out, so I just use a bit of translucent powder in my t-zone after the tinted moisturizer.

Re: If you use a tinted mositurizer...

can someone please explain tinted mositurizer and the benefits?

I really never wear make up and I know nothing about it- but I am less then thrilled with my skin lately and I need some help

beth, honestly, tinted moisturizer is nothing more than than foundation mixed with moisturizer.

ive used a few and like them. but then i realized they were making me way too oily. (i figured out i only need to moisturize at night)

they are more sheer than a foundation would give you. so if you are hesitant to start wearing foundation, it gives buildable coverage with moisture at the same time.

thanks! I need to go to bloomingdales this week- maybe I will try a few and see what I think

my skin is dry in the winter- I wouldn't use it in the summer when I have some color- I am not going to the tanning salon anymore and I don't feel like myself - I am so pale

i hear ya!

if you're into self tanners...i use alba botanica which is virtually all natural, if not completely. its called 'sun' and i use it on my face and body. i avoid the sun even in summer, and this helps me always have some color.

have fun at bloomies!

I looooooove You Rebel Lite (by Benefit)

I always brush powder over it.

To me, it's just a lighter version of foundation or a "one step" process rather than moisturizer, then foundation, then powder etc. it blends a lot more easily than foundation.

Re: If you use a tinted mositurizer...

I use LM tintem mousturizer also and I use a primer. I tried the LM primer but I prefer smashbox. My face is so oily, the primer helps everything stay put. I would use it under foundation too.

Re: If you use a tinted mositurizer...

Primers work great with a tinted moisturizer, because the help even out skin tone and texture. It will definitely make the tintes moisturizer look even better.

I wouldn't recommend foundation over tinted moisturizer-it might look too heavy. You could just use a concealer in the spots you feel you need more coverage.

I love the Laura Mercier Tinted moisturizer AND the Secret Camouflage concealer.

That line is amazing.
