The e.l.f. Halo Glow Skin Tint SPF 50 in '14 Deep Warm' is designed for everyday wear, providing a natural-looking finish while protecting your skin. Its serum-like consistency glides on smoothly, offering a sheer veil of color that evens out skin tone without feeling heavy. The 'Deep Warm' shade is specifically formulated for deeper skin tones with warm undertones, ensuring a seamless blend and preventing an ashy appearance.
Prep Your Skin: Start with clean, moisturized skin. Allow your moisturizer to fully absorb before applying the tint.
Shake Well: Always shake the bottle thoroughly before use to ensure the SPF and pigments are evenly mixed.
Dispense & Apply: Dispense a small amount (about a dime-sized pearl) onto your fingertips. You can also use a damp beauty sponge or a foundation brush for application.
Blend Thoroughly: Apply to your face, blending outwards from the center. Work in small sections to ensure even coverage. Its buildable nature allows you to add a second thin layer if you desire slightly more coverage.
Reapply for Sun Protection: For continued SPF 50 protection, reapply generously at least every two hours, or every 80 minutes if swimming or sweating.
This tint performs best when aiming for a 'no-makeup makeup' look or as a base for light cosmetic routines. Its hydrating nature ensures skin feels comfortable throughout the day, and the dewy finish imparts a healthy glow, perfect for a fresh, radiant appearance.
There is no complex setup required. Simply shake the bottle, open, and apply. For first-time use, you may need to prime the pump a few times.
Skin Types: The non-comedogenic and dermatologist-tested formula makes this skin tint suitable for most skin types, including sensitive, oily, dry, and combination skin.
Other Products: It layers well over most skincare products (serums, moisturizers) and under other makeup products (concealer, powder, blush). Always allow previous layers to fully absorb before applying the next to prevent pilling.
Shade Matching: '14 Deep Warm' is designed for deep skin tones with warm undertones. For best results, ensure this shade aligns with your natural skin tone. e.l.f. offers 18 flexible shades across 6 shade families with 3 undertones each for a precise match.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain product integrity and SPF effectiveness.
Hygiene: To prevent contamination, avoid touching the applicator directly to your face. Dispense onto clean fingers or an application tool.
Expiration: Check the Period After Opening (PAO) symbol (usually a jar icon with a number like '6M' or '12M') on the packaging and discard after that period for optimal performance and safety.
Cleaning Tools: If using sponges or brushes, clean them regularly to ensure smooth application and prevent bacterial growth.
