Skin Tint: Make-up trend for hot summer days

The times of thick make-up layers with high opacity are definitely over: the new beauty trend around skin tints means that we appreciate our natural beauty more and that the focus is more on the natural skin tone. On sunny days, when normal, well-covering make-up can quickly become a burden and cause skin imperfections, using light products makes all the difference. What is behind the trend around Skin Tint products?

What are skin tints?

So-called skin tints are make-up products that aim to create a natural and light skin tone. They differ from heavy makeup foundations and BB creams with very light coverage and a thin natural finish. Skin Tint products even out the complexion, minimizing fine imperfections and redness while still preserving the natural look of the individual skin tone.

Skin tints are often products that combine the properties of a tinted moisturizer with a foundation. They typically contain fewer pigments than typical makeup and offer light to medium coverage. Skin tints are often enriched with moisturizing ingredients to provide additional care for the skin and strengthen the skin’s natural barrier.

Skin tints are perfect for summer

Skin tints are the perfect alternative to conventional make-up products, especially in summer, as they allow the skin to breathe better. Heavy makeup products with high coverage often contain a large amount of ingredients such as pigments, oil or wax. This can lead to an artificial barrier forming on the skin during use and clogging the pores.

Skin tints, on the other hand, can help to ensure that the skin’s natural functions are less impaired and that the skin feels more comfortable – true to the motto “more skin, less make-up”. Skin tints are lighter and have a thinner consistency than high coverage makeup. The light foundations can be spread more easily on the skin and easily adapt to the individual complexion.
