Tinted Moisturizers Rock!
One of the best ways to update your makeup for spring is to incorporate a tinted moisturizer. These sheer foundations are easy to work with and they look and feel better on the skin than a traditional liquid foundation.
Some women feel that they need to apply a heavier foundation because they have pigmentation or redness to cover and don’t know how to achieve flawless skin any other way. Then there are the women who just don’t wear any foundation, but need to and are thrilled to discover that just a little coverage is a good thing!
We feel at The Make-up Studio that your skin should look flawless with the least amount of makeup. To achieve this unmade up look, and still have great looking skin, apply a tinted moisturizer followed by a face concealer. The point is to just spot touch where you need the extra coverage with the concealer and the finished look will feel lighter and fresher! We recommend setting with a colorless powder such as the Allison Raffaele transparent setting powder.
There are so many tinted moisturizers available on the market but they all have a different feel, coverage and SPF factor so it can be challenging finding the right one. Remember, if possible always ask for a sample so you can try it at home to make sure you like the color and feel, as not all tinted moisturizers are created equal!
Tinted moisturizers are easy to apply with either fingers, sponge, or foundation brush.
Here are some great options that we carry at The Make-up Studio:
- Girlactik Skin Tint Moisturizer
- The Balm Shelter Tinted Moisturizer SPF 18
- Senna Barely Base SPF 20
- Stila Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20
