REVIEW: MAC's Studio Moisture Tint (SMT) !!

Hey Loves! So today I have a review for you on MAC's Studio Moisture Tint.

I have been using this product for about two months now. I have been wearing tinted moisturizers for about 6 months now because I can't wear any kind of foundation. I have sensitive skin and anything heavy makes me break out or get a rash. I have tried all different kinds and have had the same reaction. If I do wear foundation I mix a little bit of it into a moisturizer (then it becomes a tinted moisturizer). I do break out a little with that as well, but it is not as bad as if I just use the foundation. So I just stick with tinted moisturizers. They give me a little bit of coverage and look natural. I do not have that much to cover anyway, if a little concealer always does the trick!

Okay so on the the product! Once again it is called Mac's Studio Moisture Tint. It retails for $29.50, which is definitely a good price for a brand name tinted moisturizer. MAC's website describes this product as a, "A light, tinted moisturizer with SPF 15 and other skin-nourishing ingredients. An easy one one-step finish specially suited for the season, this sheer tint provides just enough coverage to even out the skintone while creating a flawless protected, softly moisturized finish. Suitable for all skintones." They describe the product perfectly. It has SPF 15 which is always good especially for this season. It actually gives great coverage compared to other tinted moisturizers I have tried. It defintely is great if you are just looking for a product to give you an even skin tone. Like I said a little concealer and this product goes a long way. It is matte and has no shimmer. It looks amazingly natural. You also don't have to use a lot of this product to get the look you need. This moisturizer also does not leave a cakey look on your face (unless you use way to much, which I have never done). As for the shades there are about five shades I think. I have the shade dark because I am currently tan and I usually stay that way from not till October. So I will use this shade till then; At that point I will probably purchase one of the medium shades. Application wise this product is very creamy in consistency. It can be applied with a sponge, brush, or your hands. I use my hands and find it to be easier that way. This product can be used on its own if you like. Depending on the day I apply it one of two ways. If its a nonchalant day for me I apply the moisturizer and a setting powder. On a day I know I am doing things it is usually a primer then the Moisture Tint then a setting powder. It is purely up to you how you would like to apply it. Overall I love this product. It does everything I want it too and more.

If you haven't tried a tinted moisturizer and would like to there are a few drug store brands that carry them as well. I have tried a few myself. One of my favorites is by Nutrogena Healthy Skin Enchancer (Around $11.00). So feel free to try that one first if you like. I would recommend using one for the summer because of its lightness. Because of the heat a foundation can end up looking cakey and nasty; a tinted moisturizer won't do that as much.
