Details & care
What it is: A sheer-coverage oil-free tinted moisturizer with SPF 20 for a healthy, no-makeup look and a demi-matte finish.
Who it's for: Anyone with normal-to-oily skin types.
What it does: This lightweight formula helps control oil breakthrough and adds a soft hint of color that evens and enhances skin without hiding it. Use it in place of foundation for an effortless, natural complexion. The stay-true color wears all day. It also delivers skin-caring benefits, with broad-spectrum SPF 20 UVA/UVB protection and antioxidant vitamins C and E to help protect skin from the damaging effects of the environment.
How to use: Place a small amount on the back of your hand and apply to face with the narrow end of a makeup sponge or with clean fingertips. Focus on one area at a time and blend well.
Pro tips: Laura recommends starting at the outer portion of your face and working inward toward the nose. Avoid excess application around the contours of your face. Repeat application until you reach your desired coverage.

Holy Grail Product and I LOVE the oil free!
This is one of the very few products in my collection that has “holy grail” status. I have tried so many other highly rated foundations and I always prefer this one. Somehow it both evens skin tone and covers much of what I would need a concealer for, and has a completely natural texture that gives me a glow. I love the oil free- it is a little thicker than the alternative and gives my sensitive skin no problem. I have nude and another darker color and mix them depending on the season and whether I have a little sun on my skin.

Too heavy
I've been using the regular tinted moisturizer, which I love, but decided to try the Oil-free as I tend to have breakouts. It was much thicker, and although I ordered the same color, much darker than the regular moisturizer. I don't know if it's because I ordered it several months ago? But the other tinted moisturizer lasts for a very long time. I can't use this one.

Amazing Product! Can't live without!!
I've had sensitive and acne-prone skin my entire adult life and this does not make me break out! It gives beautiful natural coverage, but also is buildable. I have very fair skin and use Porcelain, but I'm also able to use the Nude and Bisque. It is an amazing product and lasts a long time! A little goes a long way!
A little tip: when you think you're down to the last drop of the tube, cut it in half and use a Popsicle stick to get the rest out. You'd be surprised how much is left!

Beautiful Glow
This tinted moisturizer makes it summer year around, with that beautiful summer glow and the oil free lightweight ware of this make-up, you can't go wrong. The one and only time I tried something else, I broke out like crazy.....so now I will never try anything else again.....I never have a zit with this make-up, cause it does not clog up my pores. LOVE IT!

hard to blend in
Pros:
-Gives even complexion
-Combines 3 steps in one: moisturizer, sunscreen, light/sheer coverage
-Did not break me out (very important since I prefer using gel moisturizers)
Cons:
-Hard to blend in. I even tried with my gel moisturizer underneath to see if it would blend in better and still you have to work it in. (No use in using a primer if you'd like to moisturize)
-Smells like Hawaiian Tropic sunscreen (although it somewhat fades away in a couple minutes after I set it which bring me to:)
-Needs to be set with translucent powder, unless you want to look greasy and have color transfer everywhere
-I couldn't tell from the swatches that Sand would be too dark for me (but hey that's my fault) although it says light to medium coverage (and I use medium in Bare Escentuals) it was too dark for my skin.
Overall
I would still like to get this in Bisque to see if it matches better and keep Sand fore the days when I'm tanned. I like how practical it is and that it worked well with my skin and didn't break me out.

LOVE it!
I have very sensitive, oily and acne prone skin, and I've tried every foundation in the world that claims it helps promote healthy skin. This is the ONLY product I've tried that actually works! I've been using the Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer and the pressed mineral powder for about 3 weeks now and my skin is nearly acne free! I'm AMAZED!
