Kylie Cosmetics Skin Tint Blurring Elixir Foundation has become a summer staple for shoppers seeking lightweight makeup that withstands heat. Priced at £22.40 (down from £28) for 30ml, the product boasts a 4.6-star rating from over 870 five-star reviews. Available in 24 shades, it promises buildable coverage that won't clog pores or settle into fine lines.
What Makes It Stand Out?
The skin tint is described as a hydrating, smoothing liquid foundation with medium, buildable coverage offering up to 12 hours of wear. Its vegan formula blends seamlessly for a natural, airbrushed satin finish that is neither too dewy nor too matte. According to the product description, it is non-greasy, non-oily, and humidity- and sweat-proof, making it ideal for summer.
Shopper Reviews
One five-star reviewer said: "My favorite summer time base! It is light on the face but still offers some coverage. It evens out the skin tone perfectly. It is also acne safe! It gives a natural glowy look and feels like you don't even have makeup on." Another added: "I've tried switching to other foundations and skin tints, but I always come back to this one. It gives my skin a beautiful, natural-looking finish and feels so lightweight and comfortable."
A third shopper noted: "This skin tint is THE BEST skin tint I have ever tried! It is the perfect amount of formula to cover up the texture, but not too heavy like foundation. It is perfect for the summer for beach days with an intense blush on top!" However, one reviewer wished for more shades that aren't yellow-toned, especially for olive undertones.
Alternatives to Consider
Boots also offers the Clarins Skin Illusion Foundation SPF15 30ml for £38, which has a 4.3-star rating and features an Anti-Pollution Complex. Meanwhile, Space NK stocks the Vieve Skin Nova Complexion Balm for £34, described as a medium-to-buildable coverage formula that combines skincare and makeup for a radiant finish.
