There are so many things to love about summer, like having a beach day or going on vacation. But we can also all agree that there are some things to dislike about summer, too, namely the heat and humidity, which can really throw a wrench in your beauty routine. Hair becomes instantly frizzy when you step out the door, and makeup feels heavy and greasy.

However, there is a solution: ditch the foundation.

We're not saying you have to give up coverage altogether, but rather than loading on powder to keep foundation intact, opt for a tinted moisturizer or a tinted sunscreen instead.

Not only are tinted moisturizers and tinted sunscreens lightweight while still providing coverage, they also offer additional skincare benefits, like hydration and sun protection.

What is the difference between a tinted moisturizer and a tinted sunscreen?

Let's break it down.

As the name suggests, tinted moisturizers provide light to medium coverage and are infused with ingredients like vitamins A and E, hyaluronic acid, and peptides to hydrate skin and help repair its barrier. Since they're usually buildable, you can customize the coverage depending on what you're looking for. Additionally, some even deliver a skin-blurring effect much like your favorite primer.

On the other hand, tinted sunscreens, while providing similar coverage levels, contain SPF to protect skin against harmful UV rays — a must-have in the summertime. You'll find options below with anywhere between 30 and 50 SPF.

There are even options that offer both hydration and SPF. How's that for a multi-tasking product?

So if you're after a "no makeup" makeup look that doesn't feel heavy on the skin and provides added skincare benefits, you've come to the right place.
