She pumped a few squirts into a sample tube for me to take home, and the rest is history. One of the Laura Mercier reps turned me on to the product after I commented on her flawless, glowy skin. The first time I tried Laura Mercier’s tinted moisturizer, I was working at Nordstrom as a web-order fulfiller and spending most of my shift lurking around the cosmetics floor. Ingredients: Avobenzone 2.5%, octinoxate 7.49%, octocrylene 2%, oxybenzone 1%, Macadamia and kukui-seed oils, tamarind-seed extracts | Shade range: 20 shades Most tinted moisturizers have a dewy finish, so you’ll get that summertime glow we’re all after year-round, but if that’s not your thing, there are oil-free formulas for a more matte look. I’ve put it on with my fingers, sponges, and brushes, all of which have worked exceedingly well. The light coverage makes it incredibly forgiving, easy to control, and a breeze to apply. As the late makeup artist AJ Crimson put it, tinted moisturizers are a great option for someone who “wants to look polished but not made up - or just wants to even out their skin tone.” If you’re new to makeup, tinted moisturizers are nice because they’re difficult to mess up. As someone who has generally blemish-free skin and a fairly even skin tone (shout-out to genetics), I typically reach for a tinted moisturizer, which adds a little coverage but doesn’t feel heavy on my skin. It’s getting to be that time of year - when it’s too hot to do or wear anything and a full layer of foundation can feel like a heavy, suffocating mask on your skin.
