The Great Tinted Moisturiser Hunt has begun! Avid followers will already know that I am searching for a new TM to replace my Stila. I know, I know, you can still find Stila products very easily on the internet, but quite frankly, I can’t be bothered! (If anyone has any suggestions of their own, then help a model in the throes of ‘beauty distress’ and leave a comment!)

First up: Laura Mercier with an illuminating formula. Kicks out quite a sheen, I can tell you! I’m scared to go up on my roof-terrace tonight in case planes start coming in to land, beckoned in by the sheer luminosity of my face… Anyway, good start to the search as I’m loving this one; great finish, non-greasy, blended in a treat. Better than my good old Stila, I hear you ask? To which I say “Stila? Stila who?”
