My Desert Island Makeup Product Is The Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer — Here's Why I Can't Live Without It

I have always struggled to find a good foundation. I wanted something lightweight and oil free, with buildable coverage and the perfect shade for my skin. My criteria made it very difficult for me to find my go-to product. However, the search is over!

My friend recommended me to try the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer, and I couldn't be happier that she did. If you're someone like me who doesn't like the feel of heavy foundation, this product is for you.

The Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer "blurs imperfections, with a sheer hint of coverage." I am someone who struggles with acne, so my routine starts with priming my face, and covering any redness with concealer. After those two steps, I apply the tinted moisturizer with either a brush or a sponge. I find that the combination of concealer and tinted moisturizer gives me a nice coverage for my acne, without it feeling caked on.

There are two formulas for the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer; The Tinted Moisturizer Natural Skin Perfector, and the Tinted Moisturizer Oil Free. I have tried both formulas, and I didn't notice a difference between them. Since I am someone who struggles with acne, I prefer go for the oil free version; It's just a personal preference.

Another thing I love about this product is that it has SPF! Ever since I started watching Skincare By Hyram, I realized how important SPF is in your everyday routine. The Natural Skin Perfector has SPF 30 with UVA/UVB protection, and the Tinted Moisturizer Oil Free has SPF 20.

This tinted moisturizer is $47, but here's why it's worth it.

One tube of it goes a long way, so you don't have to worry about replacing it often. It also gives your skin the hydration and protection it needs against the sun's harsh rays. You may think the sun is a concern strictly in the summer, but it is extremely important year-round! If you're putting on SPF anyway, why not get some coverage while you're at it?

If you're looking for a makeup product that feels lightweight and has skin benefits, the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer is for you. I have been using it for months and I have yet to run into a problem. Like I said, I use the oil free formula, but both options are great!

Buy the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer from Laura Mercier for $47.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
