Tinted Moisturizers vs. Foundations
The decades of heavy, caked-on foundation use are over!
What is a Tinted Moisturizer? A tinted moisturizer is a moisturizer plus a foundation.
Using a Tinted Moisturizer is the best foundation coverage for women over 30 because of the moisturizing, light, blendable look.
Foundations make us appear older because:
- they emphasize fine lines and wrinkles
- the finish is cakey and heavy
- blending well is unusual
- dull and boring versus the glowing, moisturized, dewy look a tinted moisturizer gives us
Wear a tinted moisturizer to appear more youthful!
Five Reasons to Use a Tinted Moisturizer if You’re Over 30
- The additional moisture (applied over your regular moisturizer) is ideal for mature skin and is an ideal addition of moisturizer for dry or aging skin;
- They create a light feel with a very natural look;
- You receive a fresh dewy look as with the glow of youth;
- Tinted moisturizers are very blendable and blend into skin, neck, decollete for a seamless appearance;
- The result is sheer and breathable and lovely!
Other Tips and Benefits
Tinted moisturizers are sheer and blendable, making them an easy color match for all skin tones.
A good-quality tinted moisturizer for Oily Skin is a great option for you. I have oily skin and no issues with a tinted moisturizer, only benefits.
For extra coverage, use a foundation primer before a tinted moisturizer for more coverage.
Apply with clean hands or a flat-top foundation applicator brush.
Ingredients to Consider
Finding an organic Tinted Moisturizer can be challenging. I really love and use Pure Anada©’s Sheer Radiant Tinted Moisturizer.
Pure Anada© offers certified organic, vegan, cruelty, and gluten-free selections. Click here to view products. Use Code: CleverGirlPureAnada for 25% Off
Look for silicone-free moisturizers as silicone, used as a filler, can be irritating to the skin and accumulate in the skin.
Save the silicone varieties for special occasions and not everyday use. If you need more coverage, consider a Liquid Foundation combined with a Mineral Foundation.
Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions at all! Much Love, Signe
