Tinted Moisturizer

Does not provide good coverage or anything. Not a necessary product. Better off using a foundation.

ok

I got a good sample of this. There are four different shades and none of them work well for me. I would have to mix two different shades to get a good shade for my skin tone. For about $30 a tube I don't think so. This is nice, but not that great. This is creamy, goes on well and it's decent at moisturizing. I like that it's slightly higher sun protection then most moisturizers. It does get a litt...read morele shiny like most sun screens. You're honestly better off buying a cheaper drug store tinted moisturizer. This is probably nice for people who like to splurge, but if you want a good tinted moisturizer, there are many cheaper alternatives that work just as well for a fraction of the price.

This is one of my top 3

The Urban Decay Urban Defense Tinted Moisturizer is one of my favorite tinted moisturizers. I have light skin and the Bodyguard color matches me perfectly. I apply this in quadrants (forehead, each side, and chin and nose area) so that I get a well blended application. If you are a person who wants medium to full coverage, this is not the product for you. This is a great product for those of u...read mores you like a more sheer coverage in the summer especially. I never experienced any yellow or orange tint as other reviews have suggested. I would try it before you buy it if you are concerned. And, there is a SPF 30 in this!

Mmm

This tinted moisturizer is light reflecting, covers well, and is vegan but I promise to any fair girls, this will make you orange. If you tan or go tanning, its awesome. In fact, it reminds me of my favorite tarte smooth operator except darker.

Brown Girls, Beware...

After falling in love with Garnier's BB cream, I decided I would try some tinted moisturizers from more high-end brands. I got this UD one on sale for $5, and I'm glad I did not pay full price for it. I am a lighter to medium-skinned black woman (a true NC 45) and the darkest shade of this moisturizer, Forcefield, was too light with a weird blue/gray undertone. It is very sheer, so the color isn't...read more a huge deal, but if you're wanting even the slightest coverage, look elsewhere. In addition to the color being off (nothing a little bit of bronzer can't fix), the finish looks oily and feels a little tight. It's nice to the touch, though. I want to love it, so I'll probably keep it in the back of the drawer as a last resort for the winter when I'm not quite as tan.

SLIMY!

The first time I tried this I was impressed at how good the coverage was. But it made my face super oily! I didn't even use a separate moisturizer with it.

Not good for sensitive skin

I tried this at ulta and with in 10min. Of it being on, my face started to burn! It continued to burn for about 3 hours AFTER I washed it off! Made my face was very puffy, and dried out my oily skin! If you have TRUE sensitive skin DO NOT USE!!!!

Love It

I have porcelain skin so the girl at Ulta applied the "Halo" tone all over my face to make sure it matched. The formula is smooth and very creamy so it goes on very easily, especially with a foundation brush. A little goes a long way. When first applied, it kind adds a yellow undertone to my face which I don't like. That is honestly the only negative thing I have to say about it. Over the cou...read morerse of the day, it continues to moisturize well. It never feels cakey or dry. It covers very well for a tinted moisturizer. It evens out my completion but doesn't cover my freckles. It is light reflecting but does not appear shiny. The yellow tone starts to fade and melt into my skin after about 30 minutes. So far, I'm really loving this.
