Tinted moisturizer is an option for those make up free days. There are a variety on the market, and many contain moisturizers with SPF to protect your skin from harmful effects of the sun.

Many of today’s celebrities are sporting that healthy countenance, rather than the over made up look of yesteryear. One of the most common uses of tinted moisturizers is to achieve a natural look while hiding blemishes and skin imperfections. In a variety of different shades for evening or day wear and various skin tones, many women find them to be a good addition to their cosmetic case.

For a day look, tinted moisturizers are available with a pink hue. If skin is relatively blemish-free, red skin discolorations can be treated with a green or plain concealer; dark circles are minimized easily with a yellow hued cover up. Following the application of minimal concealer, pink tinted moisturizer is applied over all. After the tinted moisturizer is applied, the face is dusted lightly with a favorite day shade of blush, making sure to highlight the apples of the cheeks and lightly brushing over forehead and chin. With a light shadow and mascara and transparent lip gloss, this is one way to achieve a day look that is fresh and youthful. The aim in this product is to look finished while not looking like you’re wearing any make up.

One way to use tinted moisturizer is by combining it with the everyday base foundation. Applying cover up and foundation as usual, the moisturizer with glimmer or shine is then added as a second light application. Often it is applied to the cheek’s apple with a slight bit at the forehead and nose, for a glamorous or evening look. Depending on the woman’s coloring, a heavier eye make up might be used with this combination and a deeper shade of blush. If the skin tone is darker, a lighter combination may bring out the skin’s natural beauty.

Tinted moisturizer is one option, whether in combination with your usual make up regiment, or on its own as a means to even out your natural appearance. Here are some other products you might consider to compliment this look:

• eye moisturizers – to replenish soft skin around the eyes and diminish puffiness.
• lip moisturizers – to keep lips soft and supple.

If you have a favored moisturizer, especially a moisturizer with sunscreen, you can make your own tinted moisturizer, as well. Simply combine an even part moisturizer with your matching foundation and apply in an even sheen. This can help to even the skin’s tone, creating a more flawless appearance, and give skin the nourishing moisturizer it needs.

If you’re looking for a new facial or body moisturizer to try, the best are made with natural ingredients which infuse much needed vitamins and nutrients into your skin. Skin So Silky is an excellent product for the all natural skin care lover.
