I always go back to Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer in different shades in summer and winter. Recently I tried Yves St.Laurent it was a good colour but was slightly thicker so more like a light foundation. I have had reports that Georgio Armani Foundation is good.
Any suggestions for a foundation that covers but is not heavy ? I go to the counters and they. Do about 4 layers to get the look I just want one that after my primer and moisturiser I can put on and it cover the blemish’s Tia
I find moisturiser that contains sun screen irritates my eyes. Body shop is the best so far, but even with that I have to take care not to get any onto my lashes.
I like NARS - not sure it lasts all day and night but it looks really natural and hides blemishes and dark circles without looking at all like foundation.
I use Clinique which is great. I must admit I bought two tubes a few years ago to qualify for one of those sets of samples they give you free, and it has lasted all that time. I don’t know if the formula will be exactly the same, though.
For much of the year I use Olay Everyday Sunshine (SPF 15) which gives a very subtle hint of colour and (I hope) helps to stop me looking like something recently unearthed from the grave. It doesn’t promise any wrinkle-defying miracles though.
I really like the Estée Lauder one too, but it’s only SPF 15, so last summer I also tried Nars pure radiant tinted moisturiser, which is SPF 30, as I was keen not to get any more sun damage. I really liked that too, I’ll get some more in the spring for this summer too.
Clarins tinted Oleo Serum is lovely. I put it on with a blending sponge. It gives a healthy glow. The consultant at the Clarins counter will demonstrate it, no obligation to buy.
I’ve recently been converted to Estée Lauder DayWear. It’s a bit on the pricy side but so worth it. It’s also available at QVC and sometimes on easy pays so you can spread the cost.
