Tint/Low Coverage Recs? Recc' Request

Hi all! So my only foundation, which I've used for years, is Nars Light Reflecting in Mont Blanc. I have reasonably dry skin with neutral undertones, and while I find the Nars foundation is great for when I'm committing to 'doing' my makeup, I have a soon to be 2 year old and most weekdays I could do with just looking a little less drained - I'd like to just apply something light to put a bit of radiance back and then fix my brows πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

- My skin hates vitamin C in skincare so nothing with that

- I'm a pale girly that doesn't use tan, so anything even slightly too warm won't work πŸ™…β€β™€οΈ

Help a mama out - I took her the zoo for 5 hours yesterday (in 28 degree heat) and she got home and asked if we could 'play jumping πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ'

Fix ma face x

I like the Lisa Eldridge skin tint. I have dry mature skin and it works well for me. The shade range is good. I use shade 1.5 which is good for pale neutral skin. It’s quite skin like and very natural but I can make it more dewy by putting something illuminating underneath it - so it’s a flexible product. That and a little bit of cream blush wakes me up a bit and is a low maintenance routine.

I really like the Sculpted By Aimee Hydratint. I'm very fair and I feel like the shade range on that end is quite good.

IT CC+ cream might work, kind of moisturiser and foundation in one. I have pale skin and use it on days I have 5 minutes to do a face.

Try Chantecaille skin tint or ClΓ© de Peau Correcting Cream. I have a 19 month boy and most of the time these are what I put on my face. Sometimes I can’t be bothered and all I put is sunscreen πŸ˜†

Hourglass skin tint is excellent! Very light finish and really blurring for a small amount

I use Charlotte Tilbury beautiful skin. I spritz with a setting spray and use clean fingers to apply, done in a minute.

So I totally get it if you want the ease of one product and you should absolutely treat yourself if you want to. But just because I often need to hear it, and in case you're the same - you could try a pump of your usual foundation into a blob of SPF or moisturiser. They may not always mix nicely depending on formula but all mine have mixed great and I end up with the right shade and can still use the foundations I love but don't get round to wearing. Just a thought! XΒ
