Editor's note: Here at Cosmo, we're all about being up to date with the latest drops from all the beauty brands, finding hidden gems already out there, and finding our next Holy Grail. And don't worry—we're not gatekeeping!
Every day, we post one beauty product from our stash at the office (because trust us, we get a lot of them) and give you a no-nonsense lowdown on each item. You get all the info in just one click. It's a TL;DR, if you will. They're all in one daily series: The Beauty FYP, a page that's all about beauty—just for you (see what we did there?). Let the Cosmo editors be your personal algorithm. ;)
While we love having a full beat on our faces every now and then, we must admit that we're partial to natural, skin-like looks for our everyday glam. To achieve that, one of the products you need to have in your kit is a skin tint.
Essentially a v lightweight foundation, a skin tint provides you with just enough coverage to even out your complexion. It's not as heavy and greasy as a foundation, which makes it perfect for days when you want to look polished without doing the most. Plus, it's usually formulated with ingredients like SPF and moisturizers that care for your skin while making it look good.
Are you on the hunt for your next HG skin tint? Here's a tip: Have a look over at TikTok Shop's bestsellers tab to check out what other people are buying. The best thing about searching through the app is you can find people who can act as your reference—i.e. those who have the same skin tone and undertones as you—which makes it easier to imagine what would look good on you. Plus, the listings often offer in-depth reviews from buyers, which can help you in your decision-making process.
In today's longer (yay!) #BeautyFYP, we'll be giving you the 411 on the best-selling skin tints on TikTok Shop. Will they be the latest addition to your makeup kit? Keep on reading to learn more:
