Smashbox Sheer Focus Tinted Moisturizer Reviews
-
Sheer is it's name
This sheer tinted moisturizer is good underneath Halo. It helps Halo blend in to the skin. Even though it says oil-free, I feel very oily after applying it. I have tried to use this with the Halo hoping that Halo would absorb the "oil." I would recommend using this when you are in a rush and would not mind having a few blemishes and such show through. The coverage is very very sheer. This does however come in many different colors. — 3 years, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Lives Up To Its Name
Very light & sheer. Will even out skintone with minimal or almost no coverage. It just adds a sheer wash of color to the complexion. I would recommend this to some who has almost perfect skin. — 4 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

good coverage and moisture
I decided to give this a go after reading so many good reviews. I like how it gives me just enough coverage and moisturizes my face without making it greasy. I'm very happy with it. — 2 years, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

I'm lovin' it.
I am very fond of tinted moisturizers. So fond of them, that I own several. The newest one I’ve tried is Smashbox Sheer Focus Tinted Moisturizer. This one, in my opinion is in a league of it’s own. First of all it gives better coverage than other tinted moisturizers I’ve tried without being full coverage foundation. A super bonus is that it dries down a matte finish which is welcome in my casa anytime because I look like I stuck my face in a vat of oil 30 minutes after I leave my house. I love that it comes in several shades but the one thing that bums me out is the fact that it’s only an SPF 15. I would never rely solely on my make-up for sun protection but let’s face it, A TON of people do and I sometimes find that to be a little misleading. I do wear a higher SPF underneath all of my cosmetic products. I have worn this 4 times and I have been very happy with it and have been complimented on my skin 2 of those times. I’d like to think it was the other hard work I was doing but I credit the nice coverage of the Smashbox. I rate it high on the list of awesome tinted moisturizers, but low on protection for those who will rely on it for their only source of SPF so it’s a Catch 22! — 4 years, 5 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Light feel, Even Coverage
I love this. A makeup artist put this on me about 2 years ago and now its all I wear. It lasts a long time and it evens out your skin tone while highlighting your beautiful skin. I have had way les breakouts and in the winter time just apply some translucent powder and you will have a little better coverage. — 8 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Review subject
It was truly love at first use. I bought a special brush for the use of this moisturizer only. I love the way it feels when it first goes on my skin, and the way it makes me make-up look after I apply it. Some days I even go without the make-up because it evens out my complexion so much, there isn't any use for make-up. It is a little of an investment because of the price. 30$ is a lot comparing to 6 dollars in a pharmacy but, you pay for what quality you want. — 1 year, 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

A Real TM!
I am always looking for a good TM: light coverage (but enough to even out the skin), moisturizes, and SPF. This definitely meets all of the requirements! The color is perfect for me and there is enough color to even out my skin, but not to make it look like I have makeup on. I love the fact that there is SPF, though I would love it if it was a higher SPF. I should warn that this TM is very sheer-- not for someone who has severe discoloration. — 1 year, 12 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Glad I finally listened!
Every time I went to Sephora for a foundation recommendation, the associates would say, "Why not try a tinted moisturizer and a translucent powder instead?" I'd think, "With my oily, uneven complexion? Yeah, right?!" I also didn't think any company made a tinted moisturizer for us darker girls. So I kept heading for matifying powder foundations that looked cakey and aged me significantly. One day I finally listened and tried this tinted moisturizer and I was/am blown away with the results! Not only does it come in my shade of brown, it's oil free and allows me to look my age (if not a bit younger!). It is a bit "wet" at first, but that allows for sheer, yet maximum coverage. A little dusting of a translucent loose powder over it and you're good to go! I also love, love, love the fact that it has sunscreen in it! Such a simple way to go, but such amazing results. Highly recommended! — 3 years, 12 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 5 people said helpful

Sheer heaven
This is my go to product. Absolutely nothing has ever made my skin so glowy, gorgeous, and healthy looking. I smoothe a pea sized dollop of this light, oil free luminizer over my face in the morning and my skin is instantaneously transformed...I can't understand how something so sheer can even out my skin tone, erase my pores, and dewify my complexion, yet still look so natural and fresh all day! Plus, spf! Since I have combination skin, I usually apply a thin layer of mattifying moisturizer to my t-zone first to eliminate shininess and flakes. After only a short while using this as my daily moisturizer, I have noticeably calmer, clearer, more radiant skin. — 4 years agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful
