E.L.F. Tinted Moisturizer Review


I'm in quite a good mood today :) & I hope everyone else is enjoying their week!

I recently purchased E.L.F.'s Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 20 from Beauty Joint and today was my first time using it. I saw that A LOT of people did not like this Tinted Moisturizer. They claimed that it was too cakey and they didn't like the smell of it. They also said that it was really greasy and it looked too dark for them especially in hot weather.  After reading these reviews, I almost changed my mind. I live on an island where the humidity is 84% and the weather ranges from 76° F to 85° F. This is year round! 

E.L.F. Tinted Moisturizer in Beige

I wanted to give it a try since it was only $3. What could I lose? (Other than the $3) I got it in the color Beige (Click here to check out the other colors of this product). I wanted to try it for the days that I wanted a sheer coverage so that you couldn't even tell I was wearing any make-up. I feel like this product nailed it. I really don't feel like I'm wearing anything! I didn't put that much on.

I think a lot of those who experienced that it made their face feel cakey probably put too much. I put really little like less than a normal pump (from a pump foundation) and I used my fingers to blend it into my face. It really evened my skin tone and I did put a little powder on but my face feels like I have no make-up on. This tinted moisturizer really made my face look really natural.


Please keep in mind that E.L.F.'s Tinted Moisturizer might not be suitable for everyone. But, it did work for me! I bought this product with my money & this was an honest review.

I hope you all enjoy the rest of the week! :) Bye for now!

Mini Makeup Collection (free!)
 I was pretty satisfied with my order and I was happy that I received a free mini makeup collection to try out their eye shadows and blushes before buying the full size. I was pretty surprised at the quality of the brushes. None of the brushes were shedding which I found surprising because they were so inexpensive. I don't know if I would order from them again only because it took FOREVER to get to me. Click here to check out their site!

I wish you lovely ladies a safe and beautiful weekend :)
