The Skin Tint That Changed My Mind About Glowy Makeup

Glowy skin is big right now. The idea of looking like I’m glowing from within when I’m working hard, running low on sleep, and not actually glowing at all sounds amazing. But as a gal with an oily t-zone I couldn’t see it working for me.

For years I stuck to mattifying everything… primers, foundations, powders, you name it. Because I have an oily (and I mean oilyyy) t-zone I assumed that anything lightweight or dewy would leave me looking like a sweaty mess by noon.

But when I tried Arbonne’s Skin Tint? I was shocked. It’s breathable, soft, and somehow gives that healthy glow without sliding off my face in the summer heat. It even helps cover my acne spots without patchy concealer.

It’s been awhile since I’ve shared a makeup review, so I’m excited to share this one that is completely different from face makeup I’ve tried before. Keep reading to see why even this combo-oily gal is officially converted.

What Is Arbonne Skin Tint?

Arbonne Sheer Coverage Skin Tint is a lightweight, breathable vegan formula that evens skin tone, hydrates, and gives you that ‘your skin but better” glow. There’s just enough coverage to feel put together without covering your skin. And yes, it builds to cover acne spots and scars.

It’s skincare-infused with hyaluronic acid, skin-smoothing peptides, and vitamins B3, C, and E.  The added skincare benefits help reduce the look of redness, pores, and uneven skin tone. If you love a “no-makeup” makeup look, this is perfect for you!

Why I Love the Sheer Coverage Skin Tint

The formula itself is a serum-like texture and blends really well. It also layers well over skincare, including SPF, and under other makeup like powder, bronzer, blush, etc.

I originally applied it with a brush but I prefer the finish I get using my fingers. As with any face makeup, I blot at lunch and apply a little powder. I thought, for sure, that the skin tint would be a mess by that point in the day. But, it still looks good. Some areas start to look worn, but my skin still looks radiant. I’m still surprised by this!

There are only 4 shades but because of the way it blends into skin, everyone I helped color match found one that worked for them.

I don’t notice a scent which is great because that can really turn me off when something on my face has a strong scent.

Honestly, I tried the Skin Tint because it was newly launched by Arbonne and I love trying new products. I’d been using a Skin Tint from another brand that I really liked but it had more coverage. So, when I saw how sheer and glowy this one is, I thought it would be a flop for me. Boy was I wrong!

If your makeup routine feels like a chore, or if you want that fresh, dewy skin without caking products on – you need to try it.

Pro-Tips

• For any makeup to work well, make sure you are using skincare products made for your skin type. Even this glowy formula won’t look luminous if your skin isn’t hydrated. My skin has changed in the last few years and my skincare routine has changed with it. I think this skin tint works so well now that my skin is more under control.

• Applying with a brush will sheer the formula out a bit more, with fingers gives the true coverage.

• I use a primer in my oily areas and set with a glow powder and setting spray. When I started using this tint I changed from my normal matte setting powder to this one because it adds to the glowy look instead of covering it up.

I’ve always loved putting on makeup and getting ready, but over the last year or so I’ve wanted a quicker routine to help me get out the door faster. It’s like the more I have going on the less effort and thought I want to put into getting ready. So, having a product that does that and makes my skin look radiant and awake is amazing.
