Tinted Moisturiser & Skin Tints

This depends on what you need. The main purpose of tinted moisturiser is to hydrate the skin while adding a bronze hue to the complexion. BB creams, also known as blemish balms, provide coverage and conceal blemishes, infused with skin-blurring pigments to provide a seamless base. Originally designed as an all-in-one formula, the BB cream unites the benefits of a moisturiser, primer, SPF, foundation, skin treatment, and concealer.

Yes absolutely! Tinted moisturiser provides sheer coverage for the days when you want to wear something lighter.

Yes, tinted moisturisers can be enough to protect your skin from the sun, but you need to choose wisely and use enough to give your skin the protection it needs. To ensure adequate protection for your face, you should look for tinted moisturisers with SPF30. And then you need to use a full teaspoon’s amount to get the benefit of the SPF. Most people tend not to use the full amount, so it makes sense to apply sunscreen first then your tinted moisturiser. Then you’ll get the protection from the sunscreen, plus the added SPF of the moisturiser too.

Just like your foundation, you should always wash off your tinted moisturiser at the end of the day. Although skin tints often give lighter coverage than your average foundation, always use a thorough cleanser and lukewarm water to rinse away any product from your face before you go to bed, allowing your skin to breathe overnight.
