Sometimes less is more when it comes to your glam. This is especially the case for your foundation. We’re starting to see makeup lovers shy away from heavy formulas and opt for lightweight, natural-looking coverage to blur imperfections and let their true skin texture shine. In fact, experts say that those with mature skin can benefit more from tinted moisturizers because of their hydrating formulas.
“In comparison to foundations, tinted moisturizers generally incorporate more emollients and moisturizing ingredients and have smaller amounts of pigment,” explains Sabina Wizemann, a senior chemist in the Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Lab, who notes that some formulas can even help block environmental stressors from damaging the skin. “Their primary function is to provide adequate and lasting hydration to the skin.”
It’s always recommended to use a tinted moisturizer that contains SPF to stay protected from the sun, which has been found to accelerate and mimick the signs of aging in the skin, but those aren’t the easiest to come by. Not sure where to find the best tinted moisturizer with SPF for aging skin? Sephora shoppers are already raving about Giorgio Armani Beauty’s new Armani Prima Color Control Glow Moisturizer, which uses color-correcting pigments to reveal a glowing, younger-looking complexion while also offering SPF 35 protection!
