the one thing: get your tint on.

the one thing Uncategorized

sometimes you have those days when you want to look like you were born with perfect skin without putting on a layer of foundation, highlighter, and concealer. those are the days tinted moisturizer was made for. as someone with combination-to-oily skin, it’s been a challenge to find one that doesn’t clog my pores and doesn’t get shiny mid day, and comes in a variety of shades. these are my top picks–i’ve been rotating the nars, smashbox, and miracleskin ones the most. do you have a favorite tinted moisturizer that didn’t make the list? please share!

1. smashbox camera ready bb cream spf 35, comes in 5 shades (there’s also smashbox’s sheer focus tinted moisturizer spf 15 which is a bit lighterweight than the bb cream & comes in 5 shades)
2. miracleskin transformer spf 20, comes in 7 shades
3. cover girl natureluxe foundation, comes in 14 shades
4. laura mercier tinted moisturizer spf 20, comes in 10 shades (also comes in an oil-free formula)
5. nars pure radiant tinted moisturizer spf 30, comes in 9 shades
6. bobbi brown spf 15 tinted moisturizer, comes in 9 shades (also comes in an oil-free formula)
