Tinted Moisturizers - Splurge to Save

5 Tinted Moisturizer Picks

From , former About.com Guide

A tinted moisturizer can give you light coverage (and color) when you don't want to wear a heavy foundation. Perfect for summery weather, these splurge-to-save tinted moisturizer picks offer a sheer, radiant look on any budget.

1. Laura Mercier

Splurge!

With seven color choices and SPF 20, this award-winning formula is worth every penny of its $42 price tag to many a magazine editor and celeb stylist. For the rest of us, it definitely qualifies as a splurge.

2. Stila Sheer Color

Splurge!

Another fan favorite, the Stila Sheer Color tinted moisturizer has rich almond oil to provide relief to dry skin. With 10 color choices, finding a match is a cinch, but the $32 price tag keeps it from being a best bargain buy.

3. Neutrogena Healthy Skin Enhancer

Save!

With SPF 20 and Retinol to smooth fine lines, this is a tinted moisturizer with extra benefits. Available in six color choices, the Neutrogena line is available at retailers nationwide for under $12, making it a solid budget alternative.

4. Boots No.7 Soft & Sheer

Save!

Boots products may be everywhere in the UK, but they are still only available in a few retailers (like Target) stateside. The hypoallergenic formula has SPF 15, and is available for $12. With only four tints, however, you may have trouble finding a color match.

5. CG Smoothers

Steal!

For oil-free moisture with SPF protection and sheer coverage, the $7 Cover Girl offering is a serious bargain, provided one of the three color options works for you.
