Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser

I first tried this product around 3 years ago. I remembering being instantly unimpressed & disregarded it leaving it burried under a mountain of other products. Then about a year ago, I rediscovered it under the pile & gave it another go. It is now my staple tinted moisturizer.
Why? Because it is simply amazing! The formulation of the product is light & very easy to absorb into the skin, which I use my fingertips to do. It gives a very natural 'barely there' finish & I use the shade 'Nude' which is perfectly matched to my skin-tone. I mostly use this on my days off, as my job does require me to wear foundation. I'll also wear it on days when my skin is behaving itself and therefore needing less coverage. This product can be built up by applying a second layer for more coverage and it also contains spf 20.
If I *had* to pick a fault it would be that I find it hard to squeeze the product out of the tube & on numerous occasions it has come shooting out onto my mirror or onto my beige carpet. Not ideal! But I find that this is the case with most tubed products.
It isnt the cheapest at £33 but in my opinion, for its natural simplicity- its absolutely worth it.
I purchased mine from John Lewis
