Lykkers, some makeup products impress me right away, while others take a few wears before I decide how I really feel about them. That's exactly what happened when I compared these two skin tints. They both promise a natural-looking finish, but they create completely different looks once they're on my skin.

After wearing each one for long days and pairing them with the rest of my routine, I started noticing what made each product stand out. If you're trying to choose between the Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint and the Maybelline Super Stay 24H Skin Tint, here's how they compared in my experience.

1. Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint

The Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint has become one of those products I always enjoy pulling out of my makeup bag. It blends effortlessly, feels lightweight, and leaves my skin looking fresh from morning until evening. What I love most is how well it works with the rest of my routine. It layers beautifully over my skincare without looking patchy or settling into dry areas. The SPF 40 is another bonus, so I feel like I'm getting a little extra protection while wearing makeup.

The finish is definitely on the dewy side, which I personally love, although I usually dust a little setting powder over my T-zone to keep the glow balanced. It's more expensive than most skin tints I've tried, but I only need a small amount each time, so the bottle lasts much longer than I expected.

2. Maybelline Super Stay 24H Skin Tint

I didn't expect to like this one as much as I do. After the first few uses, it quickly became one of my favorite affordable options. It gives me medium coverage while still letting my skin look like skin. The finish has a soft, healthy glow that looks natural instead of overly shiny. I also like how comfortable it feels throughout the day without becoming heavy.

One thing I do pay attention to is the Vitamin C in the formula. Since my skin can be a little sensitive, I was slightly hesitant at first. Thankfully, it hasn't caused any irritation so far, but it's something I still keep in mind whenever I use it.

Both skin tints have earned a place in my collection, but for different reasons. When I want the most radiant finish and a formula that fits seamlessly into my routine, I still reach for the Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint. On the other hand, if I'm looking for something that delivers beautiful coverage at a friendlier price, the Maybelline Super Stay 24H Skin Tint is an easy choice.
