Introduction
Stephanie Marie introduces a video where she shares her favorite skin tints, tinted moisturizers, BB creams, and CC creams for all skin types, including mature skin. She mentions having both drugstore and high-end options with various coverage levels. She notes her skin type is 49 years old, oily combination, and can be normal with some dryness. She seeks foundations that don't highlight dry patches or increase shine.
IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream
The first product discussed is the IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream, known for its full coverage and multiple benefits, including anti-aging and SPF. Stephanie finds it polarizing, as some find it cakey if overused, but she loves it for its natural look when applied correctly. She emphasizes using thin layers to achieve medium to full coverage, highlighting its ease of application with fingers, a brush, or a sponge. The cream contains beneficial ingredients like collagen, peptides, and niacinamide, along with SPF 50. While it has a slight lemony scent from citrus extracts, it doesn't irritate her sensitive skin. She wears shade medium.
Covergirl Clean Matte BB Cream
Next is the Covergirl Clean Matte BB Cream, which Stephanie believes works for all skin types despite its matte name. She finds its versatile finish flattering, providing light to almost medium-full coverage with a soft matte finish that smooths pores. While it starts as a soft matte, the finish can change depending on humidity and skincare products used, sometimes becoming soft radiant. Despite occasionally needing to blot, she appreciates that it feels lightweight, doesn't break down, and has been a staple for years, comparing it to a minimal coverage foundation suitable for any skin type.
Urban Decay Hydromaniac Tinted Glow Hydrator
Stephanie expresses her fondness for the Urban Decay Hydromaniac Tinted Glow Hydrator, fearing its potential reformulation or discontinuation. She notes that two other products she intended to include, the Tarte Cloud CC Cream and NARS Tinted Moisturizer, have been discontinued. She loves how quickly and easily the Urban Decay product applies, providing a soft radiant finish that's buildable from light to medium coverage. It feels lightweight, hydrating, blurs pores, and gives a healthy glow without excessive oiliness, performing well even on dry areas.
Wet n Wild Bare Focus Tinted Hydrator
The Wet n Wild Bare Focus Tinted Hydrator is highlighted as a fantastic drugstore option that provides lightweight hydration without increasing oil production. It offers sheer to light-medium coverage with a natural skin finish, evening out skin tone and smoothing the skin. Stephanie appreciates it as an easy, everyday skin tint suitable for any skin type, especially given its affordable price point.
L'Oreal Age Perfect 4-in-1 Tinted Balm
Stephanie discusses the L'Oreal Age Perfect 4-in-1 Tinted Balm, a product she uses regularly for improved skin appearance and skincare benefits. She was surprised by how well her skin responded to it compared to other complexion balms that felt heavy and greasy. This balm is lightweight, hydrating, and provides a natural finish between radiant and matte, offering light coverage to even skin tone and slightly conceal imperfections. While it improves the appearance of pores, it's best suited for combination to dry skin types, particularly mature skin. She uses shade 10 in winter and 20 when her skin has more color.
Chanel Les Beiges Water-Fresh Tint
Lastly, Stephanie shares her thoughts on the Chanel Les Beiges Water-Fresh Tint, the sheerest and most expensive product in the video. Despite initial skepticism, she found it unique and effective, comparing it to a real-life blurring filter that evens skin tone, provides a natural glow, and blurs pores. Its 75% water-based formula feels hydrating and lightweight, featuring encapsulated micro-droplets that burst upon application, blending invisibly into the skin. While it doesn't offer significant coverage, it enhances the skin's natural appearance, making it ideal for those seeking a no-makeup look with hydrated, plumped skin. It has a soft, faint Chanel fragrance that dissipates after application.
Conclusion
Stephanie concludes by acknowledging that she had to narrow down her choices for the video, and there are other BB creams, CC creams, skin tints, and tinted moisturizers she likes. She encourages viewers to share their favorite products and suggest categories for future top foundation videos. She thanks viewers for watching and asks them to like the video and subscribe for more content.
