Hey ladies I am not much of a make up girl but I really want to try some tinted moisturizer.

What have you guys tried and any recommendations for very sensitive oily skin would be great!!

I use Nivea's Simply Glowing moisturizer. It's not exactly tinted, but it does camouflage flaws well, because it has light-reflecting pigments in it. I think it makes my skin look more even and less red. I really love it because it isn't greasy, absorbs well, and doesn't irritate my skin. It's non-comedogenic, too.

I use Neutrogena's Healthy Skin Visibly Even, which has helped my face seem brighter, even without a tint - and it's got a 15 SPF for that daily sun protection.

Currently I'm using Cover girl Smoothers. SPF 15 Tinted Moisture. It's fair to light since I'm a naturally pasty person. Pretty happy with it now.

The first time I used a tinted moisturizer I used one that I purchased at bluemercury, (http://www.bluemercury.com/home.do), from Laura Mercier, which I loved. It felt really light on my face and wasn't oily. I've since decided to try others and am currently using a tinted moisturizer from Mary Kay. This one isn't as nice as the the one first one I tried because although it evens my skintone, it just doesn't do as nice a job.

Thanks for the recommendations. See I read that the Cover Girl stuff wasn't good at all for oily skin. I am going to look into this blue mercury stuff.

Whether or not you make the purchase from bluemercury, I'd love to hear what you went with and what you thought of the product.

Laura Mercier's line is the bom. Pricey, but great stuff. My personal motto is: Never skimp on what goes on your face!

I see someone recommended Neutrogena Healthy Skin Visibly Even. I'm not sure if it's the same thing or not, but I use and swear by Neutrogena Healthy Skin Enhancer. I have combo (pretty oily in the summer), sensitive skin and it's perfect for me.

I use Mary Kay Tinted Moisturizer, I have patches here and there of dry skin and patches of oily skin and some normal... it works well all over my face. It comes in several different shades to match your skin tone... I love it!!!

I decided to try the Ulta Tinted Moisturizer. I went to the website and they had $3.50 off of $10 or more and also it was buy one get one free!! So hopefully I will like it b/c it is in my price range and I will be getting two of them!

WOW!!! Would you report back and let us know how you like it? I'm running out of the one I'm using, Mary Kay (not great), and I'd like to give it a try. That's a GREAT buy, if you, and your face, end up liking it!!!! Woo Hoo!

I use Studio Gear in light for average skin. I got it at Ulta and really like it. I have never been into foundations/powders at all but this is light and covers my skin well.
