Just got this today as a Level 4 gift. In retrospect I should have followed my first inclination and picked something else entirely. But having said that, I will get some use out of this product. I got it in Light, after testing the light/medium and finding it much too orange/brownish.
It's still a little too yellow on my pinkish skin, but I do like the glowy finish which doesn't turn greasy on me. It seems to even out my complexion to some degree, so it's useable. But overall I'm a little disappointed.

I am extremely fair and bairly find a foundation that fits my skin tone, I got the fair to light option that I thought might work because it was just a tinted moisturizer instead of a full coverage foundation, but this was completely too orange and too dark for me i looked like a clown.

It may work fine for tan people, I didnt hate the application or the consistency.

I was looking for a tinted moisturizer at a fair price so I picked this up in the 'fair to medium' color, which is the lighter of the two options. I am a NC30 (Light to Medium skin tone with neutral undertones) and I found this product to be really orange and hard to blend. When it got wet in the pool, the orange color became even more apparent and I had to wash it off! I give it 2 lippies because it could possible work for tanner people.

I'm so-so about this product. I haven't tried many tint moisturizers, so there isn't much I can compare it to.


Anyway, I am pretty fair so I bought the Fair to Medium and its a little too dark for me. Also, my skin has a natural pink undertone so I'm not a fan of the orange undertone it contains. Its minimum though, so its not really noticeable to anyone but me apparently. Its a bit difficult to blend as well. I had to apply it WITH my Bare Escentuals moisturizer.


Now on to the positives. :p It smooths out my complexion nicely and doesn't really accentuate my flaws which other TM I've tried have. It dries quickly, which is probably why it was difficult to blend. It made my skin look very glowing and natural, not greasy. It also gave me a bit of a natural slightly tanned appearance. Despite being one of the pasty-est things you'll ever see in your life, it wasn't like a "OMG I can see her foundation/tan line on her chin" -if that makes any sense. The smell doesn't really bother me, I personally think it smells like tanning lotion which I like haha. Also, its inexpensive -$10 but you can usually find it on sale.


Overall, it was decent but I wouldn't repurchase.

I returned this the next day. I'm a MAC NW35 and I bought the lighter shade moisurizer because the other was too dark, but the one I got was too light. The product is tinted, but it seemed like nothing when I applied it.

I've been wanting to try a new tinted moisturizer, and not having much money to spend, decided to try ULTA's brand. Guess it is true that you pay for what you get huh? The color is completely off. I got the fair/medium and it looked really dark, orange-y and splotchy on my skin. It's really thick and didn't smooth over my skin very easily, and personally I didn't like the smell of it. You can definitely smell the sunscreen in it. I have sensitive skin and it made my skin itch at first every time I put it on. I have noticed some zits pop up too. I would not recommend this product.

I bought the fair to medium and it has an orange tint to it when i first put it on..so i mixed it with some lotion and it works fine for me, you just have to make sure to blend it well.

It has great staying power, & no issues with breakouts. The color is alittle off(medium to deep tone), but I add a few drops of illuminating lotion(Boots No.7) & it's perfect. It's a lighter cover than most, but looks good for hours. For the price it can't be beat. My aunt(70yrs old) wears this under her regular foundation & looks 30 yrs younger. It doesn't cake or pile in to the lines, etc. just sits on top.

I just bought this on Sunday and love it so far. I don't like foundation, and am finding powder foundation to be too thick, so I thought I'd try TM. I looked at Smashbox and Stila, but wanted to go a little cheaper to make sure I like TM. I bought the fair/medium and was a little concerned about the color, but once I put it on, (you really can't overdo it with this stuff, only use a small amount or it will look orange!) it sank right in and smoothed out my complexion. My skin looked dewy but not greasy and I didn't even want to put powder on. I like the fragrance, as well. I may try some other brands, but for the price, this was worth it.

This is okay. It feels good on, but the color is a little off for me. Also, it is a little thick for a moisturizer.

2 things I enjoyed about this TM: I liked the feel of it on my skin, and how easily it smoothed on. I also liked the fragrance. I did NOT like how orange it was on me, and with only 2 color choices that really sucks. I will not consider repurchasing unless Ulta decides to add a better range of color choices. Something less orange and about 2 shades lighter would be nice.

BLECH!!!! I was definitely unimpressed with this tinted moisturizer (and I really wanted to like it because it's inexpensive... especially considering all of the sales that ULTA is always having). For a tinted moisturizer, it seems too think and gunky (definitely not something that glides over the skin). Furthermore, the color is atrocious-- waaaaaay too orangey! And because the product is thick, they've really limited themselves by making only two color choices.

I looked like a deformed peach in this tinted moisturizer. It was greasy, slimy, and cakey all in one, not to mention the color. I was so orange that i really did look like some kind of messed up peachy crossbreed. I'll never use this again!

I like the color, but it seems too oily on my skin and makes me shiny. I was using it in place of foundation, and at first it looks good. A couple of hours later, though, most of my makeup has slid off my face.

This stuff is greasy! It makes me not want anyone to touch my face, and when people do, it makes me feel bad. It looks really shiny. It makes me look tan, which I like, but I'd rather not look so oily. I think it's better than Cover Girl's TM (because CG's is way too pink), but I like Almay's tinted moisturizer way better.

I bought this tinted moisturizer at Ulta for $5 during their 50% off sale. I purchased the Fair to Medium, which was a bit orangey. I'm very fair, but during the summer, I get a little color, so I can pull this color off (or so I think :). If you blend it well, the orange undertone disappears, but you cannot use this as a moisturizer alone if you are N/D. It's difficult to spread, so I have mix it with my daily moisturizer, so it defeats the purpose. However, the finish is really pretty. It's not matte or dewey, it's very natural with a little hint of a glow. I didn't powder it, and my skin looked radiant all day. It also has a bit of a scent which might be offensive to some people, since it lasts all day. The scent doesn't bother me, but I can see it being a problem for others. The original price is $10, so even if this isn't my HG of tinted moisturizers, it will certainly hold me over throughout my quest.
