Tinted Moisturizer


A few weeks ago, I was watching a TLC mini-marathon of "What Not to 
Wear." It's without a doubt the best makeover show on television. Stacey’s biting remarks? Clinton’s antics? They never get old. Anyway, celebrity makeup artist Carmindy, author of the book The 5-Minute Face, introduced the show's fashion victims to beauty staples like eyelash curlers and lip gloss.But the product that she touts as MVP in her makeup kit? A little tube of tinted moisturizer.

Tinted moisturizer is the happy medium makeup product. If offers jsut enough coverage to mask blemishes, but not so much that you look like you;re wearing a mask. A multi-purpose lightweight foundation also hydrates? What's not to like?

Spill it, Beauty Blitzers!
What's your favorite tinted moisturizer?

PackagingUsually eco-cosmetics have dull, drab packaging. But this product manages to look fresh with a light leaf motif. And I love the user friendliness of its sticker that shows which shade's inside. Totally industrial in its look, this tube is a pretty metallic shade and seems to suggest a high-tech formula. Still does pack an antioxidant punch in its ingredients. Otherwise, the familiar Stila logo is prominent, and the rest of the packaging is simple and straightforward.
IngredientsOrganic fruit water, jojoba seed oil, avocado oil, and shea butter contributte moisture. Plus, the promise that 80% of ingredients are organic is particularly appealing.Silk amino acids smooth skin and pomegranate extract keeps your skin radiant. And here’s a really interesting tidbit: white willow bark naturally absorbs oil. Love that!
