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

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.

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
