Published in Tinted Moisturiser Application 3 mins read

Applying tinted moisturiser involves a simple process of applying, massaging, and blending for a smooth, even complexion.

Tinted moisturiser offers hydration with a touch of coverage, perfect for a natural look. Follow these easy steps for the best application:

1. Prepare the Product

Start by getting the right amount of product ready. First apply a small amount of tinted moisturiser to your fingers. Using your fingers allows the product to warm up slightly, which can help with blending. It's always best to start with a small amount; you can always add more if needed, but it's harder to take away excess.

2. Apply to Key Areas

Once you have the product on your fingertips, it's time to apply it to the main areas of your face. Then gently massage your tinted moisturiser onto your cheeks, forehead and chin. These areas typically require the most coverage or are the largest surfaces to cover initially. Massaging helps to distribute the product and blend it into the skin like a regular moisturiser.

3. Blend and Perfect Coverage

The final step focuses on ensuring seamless coverage and addressing areas that can be tricky. Lastly, lightly pat your face to even out your coverage, concentrating on the more fiddly areas around the eyes and nose. Patting helps to press the product into the skin for better adhesion and a more natural finish, especially in delicate or contoured areas like around the nose and under the eyes where product can settle or look uneven.

Tips for a Flawless Finish

  • Start Small: As mentioned, always begin with a small amount.
  • Prep Your Skin: Ensure your skin is clean and well-hydrated before applying tinted moisturiser.
  • Blend Down the Neck: Extend the application slightly down your neck for a seamless transition.
  • Use Other Tools (Optional): While the reference suggests fingers, some people prefer using a damp beauty sponge or a brush for application, especially for patting. Experiment to see what works best for you.
  • Layer for More Coverage: If you need a bit more coverage in certain areas, you can apply a second thin layer after the first has settled slightly.

Application Overview

Here's a quick summary of the application steps:
