Hi everyone!
After many weeks of reading various posts on this forum I have finally decided to join!  You are great and make me feel... well normal  while my boyfriend is convinced I am a freak with 5 different moisturisers on my bathroom shelf. Has he got another surprise coming - I am now looking for a tinted moisturiser as my skin looks really pale during winter months and I cannot be bothered with foundation every morning.
I have combination/oily skin with quite a lot of shine. I have tried Dermalogica's and Dr H.'s tinted moisturisers but they seemed a little heavy for my type of skin. I am looking for more creme-gel formulation that feels light but still does the trick. I have read a lot of good things about Stila's tinted moisturisers, has anyone used this? Also, has anyone heard about Nuxe's tinted gel? Looking forward to your response!
Have a great day everyone!

| The Stila one is good. Another good choice is Clarin's Color Tint or Hydrabalance. |

My favorite, and one that I have converted many customers to, is Murad's Oil-Free Sunblock SPF 15 for Face. I swear to God: this will suit everyone!  |

| Caspers Mum- Re:Murad's Oil-Free Sunblock SPF. I've always wanted to try this one-but what's the tint like?I'm more of a medium skin tone and I was afraid this might have a bit too much "pink" -the 'one size fits all' colors usually do. |

I have the Stila one but don't like it too much. It's quite thick. I would suggest you check out the Clarins Color Tint that Earich suggested, although I'm not sure if that is a TM or a foundation. I can also recommend Tarte Smooth Operator (they call it a foundation but it's more like a TM). I really like this one but then again I also really like the Dermalogica TM and I think the Tarte is similar to that. Btw, Chanel has a foundation which is super light but you'd need moisturiser prior. It's basically a color tint - it's called Voile Universel.
Btw, I have tried the Murad sunblock (sample) that CM mentioned. I am super pale and this gave a lovely healthy tint. Thanks for reminding me Caspers Mum - I've gotta pick this up for summer!  |

Totally agree w/ Clarins. They're great.
Tried the EL Daywear, it's not so hot. It supposedly reacts with your skin, it's sold as a moisturizer. |

| In the summer months I like to just mix my own foundations with moisturizer and sunblock to get that extra tint. This way you can adjust the color very easily. |
