Top 10 Drugstore Tinted Moisturizers

BEHIND THE FORMULA
Two skincare super ingredients—hyaluronic acid and squalane—are behind Wet n Wild's Bare Focus Tinted Skin Veil. Use a primer, then apply it to your skin for hydrating, buildable coverage.

WHO IT'S FOR
If you're looking for a lightweight, buildable tinted moisturizer with a semi-matte finish, this is a good option for you.

BEHIND THE FORMULA
Neutrogena's Healthy Skin Tinted Facial Moisturizer contains vitamin C, an ingredient known to brighten dull skin. It also has SPF 30, which makes it perfect for everyday use.

WHO IT'S FOR
Because it contains antioxidants and SPF, this is one of the best tinted moisturizers for mature skin. 

BEHIND THE FORMULA
Parched skin will love No7's Hydra Luminous Aqua Release Skin Perfector, a tinted moisturizer that melts into the skin and offers up to eight hours of hydration. So, what's the secret? Ceramides and No7's AquaRelease™ Moisture Beads. 

REVIEW HIGHLIGHT
"This is a lightweight tinted moisturizer that works great. It doesn't go on heavy and it doesn't crease. I am in my mid-50s and was looking for something that offers lightweight coverage with good ingredients—this is it."

BEHIND THE FORMULA
Soothing aloe vera is one of the key ingredients behind this natural finish tinted moisturizer from Maybelline. Those who struggle with rosacea or acne can benefit from its gentle, non-irritating coverage.

WHO IT'S FOR
Most of us are familiar with Maybelline's Fit Me collection, a lineup of products designed to enhance your skin's natural tone and texture. As a part of the collection, this tinted moisturizer was specifically created to suit a wide range of skin types.

BEHIND THE FORMULA
Here's a vegan, cruelty-free, clean option: Milani's Glow Hydrating Skin Tint. Made with squalane and hydrating coconut water, this tinted moisturizer offers shimmery-sheer coverage for dry skin.

REVIEW HIGHLIGHT
"Best skin tint—better than tints that cost twice as much (or more). If you want more coverage you can put this over your regular foundation for a glowing finish. I also buy a deeper shade of this tint to mix with my untinted mineral sunscreen." 

BEHIND THE FORMULA
One of our favorite ingredients, hyaluronic acid, stars in this budget-friendly tinted moisturizer. But that's not all; it also has rose water, cucumber extract, and Irish sea moss, all of which are known to nourish stressed-out complexions.

WHO IT'S FOR
If you're into low-effort makeup routines, the Just A Tint 3-in-1 Skin Conditioner is a worthy (and cheap) investment. And as a black-owned brand, The Lip Bar offers an inclusive range of shades beyond the usual options.

BEHIND THE FORMULA
An option specifically formulated for dry skin, the Hydro Boost Hydrating Tint claims to provide up to 24 hours of moisturizing, plumping coverage. Its formula is non-comedogenic and oil-free, which contributes to its weightless feel. 

REVIEW HIGHLIGHT
"This is a beautiful light coverage foundation for dry and aging skin. It reminds me of a CC cream, but with a more natural color to it. It adds just enough coverage to blur redness and minor imperfections without accentuating dry areas or fine lines."

BEHIND THE FORMULA
No surprises here; it's hyaluronic acid that makes L'Oreal's best-selling drugstore tinted moisturizer so effective. Boasting 1% pure hyaluronic acid, this product provides natural-looking, lightweight coverage—no wonder it has over 10,000 5-star reviews on Amazon.

WHO IT'S FOR
Those who experience hyperpigmentation will benefit from the skin-smoothing, tone-correcting powers of the True Match Nude Hyaluronic Tinted Serum.

BEHIND THE FORMULA
Like all of CeraVe's products, this tinted sunscreen contains three essential ceramides (1, 3, and 6-II, if you're curious). Ceramides help restore your skin's natural barrier, which protects you from environmental stressors like pollution and radiation. The sheer coverage this product offers is just the cherry on top.

WHO IT'S FOR
Everyone should wear sunscreen, but if it's a top priority for you, this is probably the best tinted moisturizer you can get. It offers SPF 30, and it's mineral sunscreen (rather than chemical), which dermatologists agree is the best form of sun protection.

BEHIND THE FORMULA
Maybelline's Dream BB Cream is an oil-free skin balm that does it all: blurs imperfections, moisturizes, brightens, and protects from sun damage. Tested by dermatologists and approved for those with allergies, this top-rated tinted moisturizer uses aloe and chamomile to relieve dry, damaged skin.

REVIEW HIGHLIGHT
"This product provides the perfect balance of coverage and hydration, evening out my skin tone while keeping my skin moisturized. It’s lightweight, blends effortlessly, and leaves my skin looking natural and radiant. Plus, it has SPF, which is a fantastic bonus."
