The Best Tinted Moisturizers – Living in Yellow
Summer is right around the corner [HOLLA! đ ], which for most of us, means making a few changes to our beauty routines. Ya know, in order to incorporate lightweight products that are perfect for the days spent soaking up the sun â rather than heavy foundations that are likely to sweat off by lunchtime! Insert: tinted moisturizers.
If youâre someone who prefers lightweight coverage during this season [as opposed to a heavy foundation], a tinted moisturizer is a great option! They offer a bit of color & coverage, without sacrificing that weightless feel. Wear them on their own, or layer under your usual beauty routine â the choice is yours. Either way, say hellooo to a sun-kissed summer glow â all while spending less time in front of the mirror and more time outside enjoying the season! And as a bonus: the majority of the products include SPF, something we can totally get on board with! With so many great products on the shelves, the LIY Team and Ambassadors took matters into our own hands â and skin! đ We tested a handful of the most popular tinted moisturizers on the market to find the best products for our skin types! Get ready to glow, friends. These are the best tinted moisturizers!

Tarte Skin Treat + SPF 20
I have been using this for a year or so now, and I have zero plans of changing it anytime soon. It is my everyday foundation as I love that it has SPF 20, provides a flawless finish, and goes on feeling like a cloud. You must try this for the softest, silkiest, smoothest formula! It stays on well all day, but doesnât look cakey!
Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer + SPF 30
I was excited to try this tinted moisturizer as it gets rave reviews â while it is a better option for SPF coverage, the application of it wasnât my favorite. I felt like I was putting on sunscreen and it was a little oily to me. However, it did hold up all day long!
Ilia Skin Tint + SPF 40
This feels very dewy and moisturizing and light on my skin. I have very dry skin and this feels very hydrating. This gives really great full coverage even though it feels really light. Worth the money!
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Foundation + SPF 50
I loved this product! It has really good coverage and blurs my pores. It does have a thicker consistency, but feels light on my skin and not sticky at all. Itâs very full coverage; I feel like this gives better coverage than any foundation Iâve tried! Great product, but not as hydrating for dry skin.
Neutrogena Healthy Skin Radiant Tinted Facial Moisturizer SPF 30
I liked this product but itâs probably my least favorite out of the brands I tested. It says itâs radiant, but I feel like itâs pretty matte. It felt very light on my skin, yet has pretty good coverage. Not sticky at all! A good âsaveâ option if youâre on a budget!
Summer Fridays Sheer Skin Tint
I love this product! It feels like Iâm not wearing anything. Itâs light, but definitely evens out my skin tone. Also, itâs very blendable and buildable for more coverage. One complaint: this product does not contain any SPF, so I would recommend starting with a daily facial sunscreen before applying this one.
Colourpop Pretty Fresh Hyaluronic Acid Tinted Moisturizer
Love It! Works amazing for my oily face and was the perfect match to my pre-summer color. I get oily fairly quick, but this maintains an oil-free look longer. It does great covering pigmented areas and the final finish is flawless! This product does not contain any SPF, so I would recommend starting with a daily facial sunscreen before applying this one.
NARS Pure Radient + SPF 30
Not my fav. I really wanted to love this one. Iâve tried the radiant longwear foundation and I loved it, but this one is a no for me. It makes my face oily and sticky fairly quick after applying. If you have oil-prone skin, save your money and skip this one!
Saie Slip Tint Dewy Tinted Moisturizer + SPF 35
The Saie Slip Tint felt great on my skin and gives me a dewy glow. The consistency is like mousse, so it feels really light and is hydrating! I really liked this one! Note: Initially it was a little runny so I had to discard the first few pumps and then it was fine! Be sure to shake well before using!
BareMineral Complexion Rescue + SPF 30
LOVE! Good coverage that felt great on and gives a perfect glow to my skin. I have dry skin and my skin loved this one, but if you are oily this one might not be the best for you.
Beauty Counter Dew Skin Tinted Moisturizer + SPF 20
Great light coverage that feels great on my skin! This is a perfect daily product in the summer! Note: this is one of the more expensive products we tested â it is a bit of a splurge! But if youâve ever tried any Beautycounter products before, you know theyâre worth every penny!
