Review on: Laura Mercier - Tinted Moisturizer - Oil Free
This tinted moisturizer has been a life saver for me. I recently had broken out rather bad and this was just about the only type of coverage I could use that didnt aggrevate my skin.  The moisturizer goes on very light, doesnt feel like a foundation at all, yet it is buildable.  Because it is not a foundation, it is not really a 'full coverage' sort of foundation but it did cover more than I had anticipated. It is a bit expensive, but it is WELL worth the price, whether you just want some lighter for the summer months or you're looking for something less heavy if you have problematic skin.
Also because it is a moisturizer it is easier to blend and find your color match.
 
The only thing I saw as a 'con' was that this gives more of a dewy finish, which is not necessarily bad but if you're used to more of a matte finsh you may be dissapointed....but I would assume that if you applied a powder that this would matte you up a bit. Im not as used to a dewy sort of finish so at times I felt I looked oily


Pros: lightweight, blends well, easy on problem skin, buildable
Cons: price, dewy finish
Review on: Laura Mercier - Tinted Moisturizer - Oil Free
I really like this product.  Its more of a sheer foundation than a tinted moisturizer, although its still real light on the skin and looks real natural.  I have extremely sensitve acne prone skin and this is the only moisturizer that I've found that hasen't caused me to brake out and actually covers my current acne and don't even have to wear a concealor!  Im so happy with this product.  I like it more than mineral foundation, which was the other thing that I had found that didn't break my skin out as much.  I would def recommend this product and I would def buy it again.


Pros: Everthing, Worth every penny!
Cons: Maybe size of container, wish it was a bit bigger and had more product.
Review on: Laura Mercier - Tinted Moisturizer - Oil Free
Tinted Moisturizer - Oil FreeLight weight, matte finish, controls oil, sheer, evens outs skin tone, buildable, smooth, hydrating, SPF 20, non-irritating, good for sensitive, oily, and acne-prone skin types.
 
Today I received my new 'Tinted Moisturizer - Oil Free' by Laura Mercier.  I had to go right upstairs, wash my face and try it.  I gotta say, it feels wonderful.  The tube looks black in the picture, but is actually a dark bronzy brown color.
 
On clean skin, I first applied Oil Free Primer (LM) as suggested in brochure, and then this Tinted Moisturizer.  Feels like naked skin, very light weight, gives a matte finish, and controls oil (almost a dewy-matte finish, if that makes sense).   I did have to blot a few times but I've got extremely oily skin.
 
The shade I picked was a good match (Fawn).  For reference my skin tone = NW25 (Mac SFF).  Sheer finish (obviously) and evens out my skin tone.  Buildable.  Smooth, hydrating, can be reapplied as needed, SPF 20, good for sensitive skin and acne prone.  This was non-irritating to my skin (I have sensitive and acne prone skin).
 
All in all a very nice (top-notch) light-weight tinted moisturizer.


Pros: light weight, buildable, SPF 20, sheer, oil control, ok for acne prone and sensitive skin types
Cons: Pricey, but darn well worth it
