Colourpop's Tinted Moisturizer Is A Holy Grail For My Oily, Acne-Prone, Medium-Toned Skin — Here's Why

@colourpopcosmetics

- Colourpop's Pretty Fresh Tinted Moisturizer shade range is inclusive, so it's likely that you'll be able to find your match.

- This product is great for any type of look, natural or full-on glam because its coverage is buildable.

- For someone who is acne-prone and has a medium skin-tone is interested in skincare and makeup products, this was worth the purchase.

Because of my skin type, I have had a hard time looking for makeup face products that will not make me break-out or cause any skin problems- this led to me becoming interested in makeup products that have skincare benefits.

After researching various products and reading reviews online, I encountered Colourpop's Hyaluronic Tinted Moisturizer, and I do not regret purchasing it!

First Impressions

The Pretty Fresh Hyaluronic Tinted Moisturizer has many skin tone and shade selections, ranging from fair to deep dark. Honestly, I had a hard time choosing which one to buy because of the fact that I bought it online and wasn't able to do a physical swatch, but I tried to guess which one based on other online reviews. I ended up getting medium 10N and it was the closest match for me!

I have to say it is affordable. As a person who is picky when it comes to makeup and skincare products, especially the expensive ones, I think that $14 is a reasonable price for a tinted moisturizer.

Packaging

Looking at the packaging, I was impressed. When it comes to purchasing foundations, it has to have a pump because I would sometimes pour too much and waste the whole thing.

However, with this tinted moisturizer, it does have one! Other than that, I am deeply in love with the minimalistic product design because you are able to see the true skin tone and shade color through the packaging.

Usability

OK, other than how aesthetically-pleasing it is, I have to say this product is great. Considering I use this on a daily basis when I'm going out, I was surprised it lasted me a whole day, topped with a tinted or translucent powder to keep my oily skin matte.

I also liked how the product is buildable because there are days that I would have a full-glam look or a natural look- I mainly use it for natural looks, which I would do most of the time.

Before my purchase, I found mixed reviews online, especially on YouTube- some people liked it, but some didn't because of the hyaluronic acid and coconut water in the product. I ended up purchasing this product anyways because those ingredients are in some of my nighttime skincare products.

Final Thoughts

Before purchasing, I would recommend doing in-depth research on the product's ingredients first, considering that people have different skin types.

However, as I said earlier, the price is truly worth it. Overall, I would rate Colourpop's Pretty Fresh Tinted Moisturizer about a 4 out of 5.

Buy the Pretty Fresh Hyaluronic Acid Tinted Moisturizer from Ulta for $14.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

University of Wisconsin Branch Schools

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

11 Struggles Of Having An “Ethnic” Name

You'll never find any souvenirs with your name on it

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.
