The Best Tinted Moisturizers of 2024

The Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint is one of the most inclusive tinted moisturizers, and offers a lot of shades for every skin tone. This tinted moisturizer gives a light, dewy coverage and is perfect for those looking for a natural-looking finish. The Super Serum is vegan, cruelty-free, and safe for sensitive skin since it’s fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog up your pores. Included in the formula are niacinamide to help smooth skin texture and hyaluronic acid to help replenish moisture levels.

Because of the light coverage, this tinted moisturizer works well on all types of skin and is a hit among those with more mature skin. While there’s no included fragrance, the formula doesn’t smell great, and the applicator is a little sloppy, but this seems worth it for the end result. Those with very dry skin recommend moisturizing well before application for better results.

Complexion Rescue from Bare Minerals includes SPF 30 in its light coverage. This tinted moisturizer is many people’s “go-to summer foundation,” and while it isn’t a buildable foundation it is non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic, and formulated to be oil free for those who prefer a lighter formula and don’t want to add to oily skin.

This product is also vegan and formulated without gluten, synthetic fragrance, or PEGs, so you can apply it without worry if you’re into more natural skincare options. This is another tinted moisturizer that works well on mature skin and doesn’t look cakey or linger in pores.

When we tested the Saie Slip Tint we were impressed with the easy to blend formula. As someone who typically deals with dry skin, our tester was pleased with the dewy results that left her skin looking even and feeling moisturized.

Light enough for everyday use, Saie beauty products get high marks from us, especially since it comes in a variety of shades. While some people don't like the pump dispenser on this product, it shouldn't discourage you from trying it if you deal with eczema or dry skin.

If you're familiar with the highly rated Laura Mercier setting powder you won't be surprised that the tinted moisturizer is on our list of bests. One of my personal favorites, this tinted moisturizer boasts a high SPF of 40 so you can wear it knowing that you're taking care of your skin at the same time.

A little bit of product goes a long way here since this is a thicker tinted moisturizer but it doesn't end up feeling cakey. While there are a lot of shades available, they tend to be on the lighter side so it's not as inclusive as some other beauty brands.

With lots of color tones to choose from, the NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer is an oil-based formula, and a little bit goes a long way. This is a great tinted moisturizer for those who like a little more coverage, and is buildable for day-to-night wear. SPF 30 protects your skin from the sun’s harmful rays for nice all-day wear. This tinted moisturizer gives a nice smooth finish, but it is a bit heavier than others, and might not be the best for those with dry skin due to giving less moisture.

What’s great about this option from NARS is that it’s super easy to apply, so if you’re new to tinted moisturizer or you don’t wear makeup often, it’s pretty foolproof in its application.

A bit more expensive than some other options, Revision Skincare’s Intellishade has a high SPF at 45, protecting skin from UVA/UVB radiation with ease. Light-diffusing minerals and a sheer tint blurs imperfections and gives a nice, sheer touch of color. This tinted moisturizer is meant to enhance your skin’s natural moisture barrier, leaving skin soft and smooth, and the fragrance-free formula gives a nice glowy finish. People who love Intellishade say that it’s a must-have when leaving the house, and especially like that it has a light formula and doesn’t feel cakey on their face.

Purlisse’s Perfect Glow BB Cream offers medium coverage with its formula, boasting SPF 30 protection and antioxidants like soothing chamomile and artemisia for anti-aging effects. Paraben free, this tinted moisturizer is said to stay on all day without issue, and it has a pretty thick consistency. Unfortunately, this tinted moisturizer isn’t available in a lot of darker shades, so it’s less inclusive than other options.
