Tinted moisturizer is a must-have addition to your summer beauty bag because it satisfies multiple needs at once.
For starters, the product offers light-to-medium coverage to even out minor blemishes and redness. It's also surprisingly hydrating and healthy for the skin thanks to a combination of antioxidants, botanical extracts and vitamins like algae, vitamins C and E. Plus, many tinted moisturizers also contain sunscreen for added protection against UV rays. What more could you want from a moisturizer during the summer?
According to the professionals, using tinted moisturizer is all about skin preparation and makeup application. If you have extremely dry skin, Mark celebrity makeup artist Jamie Greenberg suggests using heavier face creams at night, so that you wake up totally hydrated and with a smooth base to wear your tinted moisturizer.
For individuals battling hyperpigmentation, acne or age spots, celebrity makeup artist Tia Dantzler advises applying concealer after you put on your tinted moisturizer for a brightening effect. A Kabuki brush will help you to achieve airbrushed-looking skin.
