Looking for something lightweight, hydrating and glow-inducing for your face? We recommend MILK Makeup’s Hydro Grip Gel Tint because we’re using it too. Plus, it’s great, makes our skin look amazing and it delivers, so there’s that.
Designed to straddle the line between makeup and skincare, this dewy tint delivers a sheer wash of colour with a radiant finish that makes our skin look naturally healthy, like we’ve been drinking water and hitting the gym all day. (And yet, only one of these statements is true.) That’s because it’s packed with ingredients your face will actually thank you for.
Triple-powered hyaluronic acid offers layered hydration to plump and smooth the epidermis. Niacinamide helps even out tone and refine texture over time, while squalane locks in lightweight moisture without clogging pores. Aloe water rounds things out with a soothing hit of calm for redness-prone skin, which we have and yet, you can’t see now, thank you very much. And along with all these skin-first ingredients, the gel tint is also a smart pick for sensitive skin types too. The cult-favourite brand is beloved for its clean, vegan and cruelty-free formulas. It has a reputation for creating multi-tasking, minimalist beauty and it does what it says, so people, including us, trust it.
While our go-to shade is “#2”, there are 14 additional hues to choose from, stretching across a wide range of skin tones. Each one’s formula feels cool and weightless and glides on effortlessly as well, without any streaking or pilling. Its blue squeeze tube makes it easy to toss into a handbag for quick getaways or pre-dinner touch-ups after a long day at work. After all, MILK really does a body (or in this case our face) good.
MILK Makeup Hydro Grip Gel Tint, $49 for 35 ml, available at Sephora.
