I decided to give the tinted moisturizer another try. I should note that I don't wear foundation often (max a couple times a week, often go weeks without it)- just when I have a big meeting, want to look extra nice, or just have extra time in the morning. I did normal moisturizer first (which is how I apply my normal foundation), and then put the tinted stuff on. It did go on a bit more sheer than my normal foundation, and I like that it's SPF 50. So I can't use it the way I had hoped, but I will probably keep it.
Is there any tinted foundation out there that is really just tinted? I was hoping for moisturizer with just a touch of color so I can throw it on in the middle of the day if I need a boost. This stuff is more like a foundation with extra moisturizer in it- definitely need an applicator or to wash your hands right after applying (which isn't always an option in a quick rushed situation).

I put on tinted moisturizer before anything else in the morning and I use the Cover Girl Smoothers, which also has SPF 15. They come in 3 shades. Pretty idiot-proof. I don't use foundation, just the moisturizer and apply powder/blush over and I'm done. It's not heavy and has a pretty even coverage. Plus it's only around $6.00 at CVS/Target. Hope this helps.
