Skin tints have become a go-to for days when lightweight coverage is all that’s needed.

They even out the complexion without the heavy feel of traditional foundation, and with so many new launches, each formula brings something different to the table. Here are the skin tints that stay in my rotation and how each one performs on the skin.

1. Bobbi Brown – Vitamin Enriched Skin Tint SPF 15

This tint has a thin consistency and adds a soft hint of coverage while offering bonus SPF. Even though an additional sunscreen layer is still necessary, the extra protection is always welcome. Because the formula leans on the drier side, it can settle into fine lines if the skin isn’t prepped with enough moisture.

2. Ilia – Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40

This is one of the most fluid formulas among skin tints and provides sheer, natural-looking coverage. It’s ideal for achieving a no-makeup makeup finish. The only drawback is the scent, which many people find difficult to ignore. It does fade once the product sets, but the smell can be strong enough that some users choose to return it. If you can move past the fragrance, the finish is lightweight and glowy.

3. Hourglass – Veil Hydrating Skin Tint

This tint has a creamier, thicker texture compared to other options, yet it still blends beautifully. It leaves the skin with a radiant finish and light coverage that feels hydrating without being greasy. Because of its smooth consistency, it spreads evenly and gives the complexion a fresh, healthy look, making it a reliable choice for everyday wear.

4. Summer Fridays – Sheer Skin Tint

This one is sheer, thin, and effortless to blend, giving the skin a natural finish that looks like your skin but slightly more even. However, it can appear dry by the end of the day if the skin isn’t prepped with a deeply hydrating base. With the right moisturizer underneath, it performs well for a soft, minimal look that still feels breathable.

Skin tints continue to evolve, and each of these formulas offers something unique depending on the finish and coverage you want. Having a few different options makes it easy to match your makeup to your mood or your skin’s needs that day!
