Tips and Tricks | Cosmetology School Overland ParkThe Summer of Skin Tints: Choosing the Best Product for Your Skin Type

If you haven’t heard, dewy skin is in this summer! We’re officially ditching the full-coverage foundations and reaching for something that can withstand the scorching temperatures and sunny afternoons outside. Enter the skin tint, a lightweight multipurpose foundation alternative that can help blur your blemishes and filter your face without clogging your pores! Our stylists at the Z Hair Academy cosmetology school in Overland Park, Kansas, understand the importance of finding a product that works well for your skin and have detailed some of our favorite options below!

Dry Skin Essentials

When it comes to dry skin, the less obvious-looking coverage, the better! While we want to create a flawless face filter that covers slight redness or blemishes, it’s important to avoid using too much product, resulting in makeup that clings to dry patches on your face. At the Z Hair Academy cosmetology school in Overland Park, our stylists recommend opting for a skincare-infused serum. We must say we are particularly loving the ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint, a skincare-makeup-SPF hybrid that offers the perfect amount of coverage while hydrating your dry skin with plant-based squalane, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid. Still need convincing? This multipurpose serum is available in 30 different shades, contains only clean ingredients, and is cruelty-free!

Oily Skin Holy Grails

While most skin tints offer light-to-medium coverage, you can still find a full-coverage option while reaping the skincare benefits of a tinted moisturizer. The IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Foundation Full Coverage Moisturizer is the perfect option for those with oily skin, as this oil-free formula was specifically designed to cover hyperpigmentation and acne scars without sliding across the face and sinking into fine lines and wrinkles. The summer heat is no match for this full-coverage moisturizer as it contains SPF 50 mineral sunscreen and diamond powder to create a naturally radiant finish!

Mature Skin Must-Haves

Do you have mature skin? You’re going to want to try out the Smashbox Halo Healthy Glow Tinted Moisturizer! Not only is this formula infused with rose extract, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, goji berries, gold, and peptides, but it helps to condition, protect, and perfect the skin for up to 24 hours. Its built-in primer makes this multipurpose product comfortable for long-term wear that won’t crease or settle into fine lines and wrinkles. And the best part? The added brand spectrum SPF 25 will keep your skin youthful-looking for years to come!
