ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40
★★★★★ 4.5 / 5
A skincare-forward tinted moisturizer that pairs non-nano zinc oxide SPF 40 with niacinamide and squalane for sheer, buildable coverage, though the shade range still doesn't fully serve the deepest and palest skin tones.
$46 per bottle (1 fl oz)
Pros
- ✓Non-nano mineral zinc oxide SPF 40 combined with serum actives like niacinamide and hyaluronic acid
- ✓Sheer, skin-like finish that layers well instead of sitting heavy on skin
- ✓Fragrance-free formula that's generally well tolerated by sensitive skin
Cons
- ✗30 shades still leave gaps at the deepest and most fair ends of the range compared to dedicated foundation lines
- ✗SPF 40 from a tinted moisturizer isn't a substitute for reapplying dedicated sunscreen during long outdoor exposure
- ✗Premium price for a 1 fl oz bottle compared to drugstore tinted moisturizers
