Get the Tint
Tinted moisturisers give you the best of both worlds.
They conceal as well as reveal, so make sure your skin looks great. Emma Stuart tries out a selection
The sun has got his hat on and has finally come out to play. It is also the time you should be putting away your foundations along with your winter wardrobe, and splashing out on a tinted moisturiser. When it comes to applying a tinted moisturiser the best way is to think of it as a normal moisturiser. Simply squeeze a small amount out onto the tips of your fingers, rub them together to warm the product a little and get an even amount on both hands. Then simply wipe the tips of your fingers gently over your face until you get an even coverage.

Clarins
Hydra Balance Tinted Moisturiser
£19.00
This is a great product, like most of the Clarins range. Once applied it feels just like a conventional moisturiser, giving skin a silk-like feel. Unfortunately, I felt that it didn’t give quite enough coverage for my liking.
From all major department stores.

YSL
Tinted Matt Moisturizer
£20.00
I love this product and hope you will too. I have used it before and it works great on my skin. What I like so much about it is its staying power, along with the fact it gives just the right amount of coverage.
From all major department stores.

Nars
Face Glo
£24.00
Offering great coverage, this is ideal for an evening out. However, if you’re planning on giving it a go I will just say it’s not ideal for use in the daytime, as it doesn’t last and you may find yourself needing to reapply.
From branches of Space NK and through Liberty.

Iman
Fresh Tint Moisturiser
£21.95
Feeling like silk and going on like a dream, Iman’s Time Control also doubles as an age control product. However, I wasn’t keen on the tones available. They seemed very yellow and so made me look a bit bland.
Stockists: 01280 707 499.

Clinique
Almost Make-up SP15
£17.00
I have very sensitive skin and found this foundation made my skin more sensitive than usual. However, it came with a built-in SPF15, gave great coverage and was very long lasting. So, if your skin is normal it would be ideal.
From all major department stores.

Laura Mercier
Tinted Moisturiser
£26.00
Giving good, light coverage and designed for all skin types, this product also comes with a built-in SPF20. Its lightweight formula can be layered for additional coverage and I found that it lasted quite well.
Available from Liberty, Space NK and Harrods.
