I realized that a couple of SPF 30 TM I would like to try seems to be too dark on my fair skin.  Why is it that they don't make a shade for fair skin just like foundations? |

| I agree with you! They all too dark on my skin also. I ordered a couple of them and it was a waste of money |

If I need to blend it, I feel it sorta defeats the purpose of a TM cuz I was thinking it's convenient. |

| I had a YSL tinted moisturizer bought from department store counter, the colour is very ok but I always found tinted moisturizer is too dry for skin, and leave a thin layer of oil in my face, so I stopped using it already |

| I remember some light Dior TMs in the past. That could be another brand worth looking at? |

wancy 2000, I just tried Juice Beauty. Unfortunately, it's too oily for my combo skin. Also, the color is like an orangy tint on me Now I'm stuck with it. I'm still trying to get rid of it for $20. If anyone's interested, pls PM me... I only used it once!
kathyboo, it's only one shade. There's another darker shade but that's SPF 20 only. |

Hi ladies, for those using TM's...any tips or tricks for applying? It seems that it dries so quickly before I can get it blended. I have tried many...any thoughts? More moisturizer before the TM? Thanks  |

| I was using Bobby Brown and I tried Skinceuticals and both I had no success! Would dry in my fingers and on my skin before I got it blended |
