As summer draws to a close, we often find ourselves with red noses and rosey cheeks after basking in the sun on vacation. But whilst flushed and youthful, the aftermath is often one of dismay, especially when it comes to our evening makeup looks. Failing to find a product that’s the right match for your new skin tone can be particularly frustrating, in the same way that, on some days, foundation feels a little too much, but no base, feels a little too, well, little. The solution? Tinted moisturiser. Lightweight and infused with SPF, this dreamy product is perfectly buildable anytime, anywhere. Below, you’ll find our favourites.
Saie Slip Tint Dewy Tinted Moisturiser
If you love Saie’s packaging just as much as we do, you’ll be pleased to know that its contents are just as pleasing. This gorgeous slip tint is infused with hyaluronic acid and SPF 35, designed to protect your skin whilst promising flexible, sheer coverage. Laced with argan oil to give your skin that perfectly dewy finish, to use this product, simply apply 1-2 pumps generously with your fingertips and blend all over.
Hourglass Illusion Hyaluronic Skin Tint
Oozing elegance with each and every product, Hourglass Cosmetics never fails to impress. Their hyaluronic skin tint does not only double up as skincare to minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, but offers both medium-to-full coverage and broad spectrum SPF 15 sun protection, shielding your skin from damaging rays. Distribute the product evenly before blending into the skin gently using light, feathery strokes in an upward and outward motion.
