Skin tints we're loving for no-makeup makeup days

Some days, less is more - especially when it comes to makeup. Sometimes you want to look effortlessly radiant without the full glam routine. While replacing foundation with concealer is the OG recipe for achieving a no-makeup makeup look, we are obsessed with using skin tints. Not only are skin tints lightweight, effortlessly blendable, and the ultimate beauty go-to, but it’s perfect for creating that fresh-faced, ‘I woke up like this’ no-makeup makeup look.

Skin tints, including tinted moisturizers and BB creams, gained popularity in recent decades, more so in the 2010s and 2020s. They became a go-to for their ability to enhance rather than mask, offering lightweight coverage while providing some skincare benefits. Unlike heavy or full coverage foundation, skin tints were designed to let your natural texture peek through while subtly evening out your skin tone and adding radiance. With updated formulas and a vast shade range, skin tints experienced a resurgence in popularity around 2024 — especially for their skincare benefits like SPF, hydration, and ingredients like hyaluronic acid.
