?Anyone using this? I need a TM that is moisturizing but not greasy for my normal/dry skin. I see this only comes in lt/med and med/dark shades. Are the colors too pink toned? Hard to tell what a color cosmetic looks like online!
The only other TM I am considering is Fusion Beauty TM but again the shades are limited. Anyone have experience with either of these? |

I have the Caudalie and I think I've used it once maybe. I have the fair/medium and it is WAY too dark for me. The TM is quite orangy as well and has some tiny sparkles in it. IMO, you can do better as far as TMs go but it has been a while since I tried to use it. Tell you what, I'm at home all day today so I'll try to use it and will write a review tonight. HTH |

Mabsy, which TM would you rec for a natural look? I think I will pass on Caudalie since you say it is a dark, orangey one! Too bad, because Caudalie usually has some nice products.
For reference, I am around a MAC NC 25. I don't like to look too pink! |

Here's the review: http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewthread.php?p=427880
If you're an NC25 then this TM is DEFINITELY NOT for you - it will be too dark (I'm an NW20). I liked the Dr Hauschka Toned Day Cream, Tarte TM, and Dermalogica TM. Laura Mercier also has a good TM (many like it but from what I remember I wasn't a fan of the texture of it). I don't usually recommend Clinique but I used a tinted version of their sunblock and finished off the whole tube (it was pretty good). Prescriptives Traceless is also one of my favourites - they call it a "skin tint" I guess it's more of a very light foundation but it looks nice and natural. |
