Sheer Skin Tint with Hyaluronic Acid + Squalane - Summer ...
Completely worth the hype! I use Kylie Cosmetics skin tint for my winter shade. I also mix it with a bit of liquid sunscreen. I have to say I am so impressed by the shade match. The consistency is very liquid, but the coverage is somehow perfect!
Skin Tint Blurring Elixir
A great medium to full coverage tint. Also has SPF 50! I like to sheer this one out as it gives more of a foundation like feel.
