Tinted moisturizers that are light and hydrating combine to create a balance between makeup and skincare.
Tinted moisturizers offer more benefits than your best foundation, and they are softer and more fresh. Hannah Martin, a professional makeup artist, explains that a good tinted moisturizer should have moisturizing heroes such as hyaluronic acids and SPF.
A tinted moisturizer can be a good option if your skin is healthy and you don’t need much coverage. Tinted moisturizers are more breathable in summer, so some people prefer to use them. However, if foundation is too heavy for you, you can still wear tinted moisturizers all year.
Tinted moisturizers are a crowd-pleasing product because they spread easily and can be used on a wider range of skin types than foundation. Martin adds that tinted moisturizers are suitable for all skin types because they come in oil-free and normal varieties. They’re ideal for those who want to create a natural glow with minimal makeup.
The best tinted moisturizing products bridge the gap between makeup and skincare. They should hydrate skin while giving light coverage without looking too heavy. We tested every product over the course of a single day to determine which ones were the best. We wanted to make sure that the formulas didn’t transfer and oxidize, even though they were lightweight.
We also considered how tinted moisturizers should be applied. There are many products that can differ in the way they should be applied. To test how these formulas could be applied to the skin, we used sponges, brushes and our fingertips. We found that some formulas, such as Rose Inc’s Tinted Serum were best applied with your fingertips, while others require a bit more buffing with a foundation brush.
L’Oreal Paris is behind some of our favourite beauty launches, without sounding too fangirlish. Since the very first time we tried it, Pure Retinol Night Serum was a staple on our bedside tables. We also love their Wonder Water Conditioner. We were high on this base and were not disappointed.
It’s almost as if they took the best parts of their popular hyaluronic acids serum and added a tint of color to give it a beautiful, sheer coverage. The serum consistency makes it lightweight and leaves skin feeling plump and hydrated. It’s not only the most economical, but also the best tinted moisturizer. It’s simply brilliant.
Ultra Violette has rebranded sunscreen as something fun and joyful to wear, rather than a boring essential. We love it! It provides a good amount of coverage. We were left asking ourselves if concealer had been applied.
Although the texture is a bit greasy, it’s not surprising as this product has such high levels of SPF. This product is great for dry skin or if you prefer a natural look. However, if this is the case, a few drops of powder can be enough to reduce shine. This product is available in 15 shades. That’s a great deal for a brand that doesn’t specialize in cosmetics in color. These shades cover a broad range of colors, which gives them an extra bonus for being inclusive.
Sisley Paris is known for its finer products and luxury brands. This tinted moisturizer feels luxurious. It leaves skin feeling silky smooth and hydrated. There are many ways to apply it, depending on what look you want. To achieve a coverage level comparable to the best lightweight foundations you can layer with a brush. Or, smooth it on with your fingers and then sheer out to get a subtle look.
The formula’s skincare benefits have been carefully thought out. It contains a carefully selected blend of plant extracts which aim to moisturize, energize, and smoothen your skin while you use it. This product is not available in all four shades. The darkest shade is golden. Mineral SPF filters are not helpful here, as they can create a white cast on darker skin tones.
You may be sensitive to the sun or have rosacea. It can be difficult to reduce the redness of your skin. Enter Avene. This product is skincare, not color cosmetics that have been diluted with moisturizer. It feels creamy and gives the skin a soothing and cooling sensation. TRP-Regulin reduces redness and dextran sulfate reduces sensitivity. The brand’s thermal spring water soothes.
Although it is only available in one shade (which is pinky-pinky), it melts into medium to light skin tones so it is barely noticeable. While all tinted moisturizers have light coverage in theory, this one barely covers. SPF30 can help prevent sunburns and skin irritations. But don’t forget to use it in the summer. It is so nourishing and lovely that you should wear it throughout the year.
This product is described as a «skin-tinted» because it does more to correct and unify the skin’s tone than to provide coverage. The packaging was initially difficult to understand due to the fact that it had a tapered nib and the name. However, it actually contained less liquid than we anticipated.
It gives the skin a nice glowy finish that can make a big difference. You can add a bit of redness to areas with a brush. Use your hand as a palette. If your skin is dry or irritated, this is a great option. The addition of hyaluronic and squalane provides quick hydration. You can also choose from a wide range of shades.
This cult-buy reminded us why tinted moisturizer are the best choice for an all-year-round foundation. The lightweight formula is the best for summer. It’s not easy to apply foundation in the heat.
In winter, this tinted sunscreen provides light coverage and protection from the harmful UV rays. Although it is sheerer than some other options, you will love the shimmery finish.
When it comes to makeup, we are all about convenience. We are attracted to products that can be used multiple times, are easy to use, and easily fit in a handbag. We were always open to this quirky option. This handy rollerball applicator glides on the makeup. You get a glowing, dewy look. Do you get a bonus SPF30? Tick, tick, tick.
The rollerball is the best selling point. However, you will still need to mix it in with a brush and/or your hands. This allows you to skip the step where you have to apply it to your hands. Although eco-warriors may not like the plastic packaging, we loved the button that allows you to squeeze every drop of product out. The slim tube was perfect for packing into our bag, and refilling throughout the day.
