ELF regular line tinted moisturizer [review w/ swatches!!]



Hello guys,
I have been repurchasing this product on and on...
so clearly I adore it.
I have noticed that ELF changed the cardboard packaging and formula too :)
The new formula is sheerer, more forgiving when it comes to shade, and has a different shade than the older version.



PACKAGING
This comes in a small squeezy tube,
I have never had an issue with the packaging.

TEXTURE
Very smooth water based formula
Lightweight and non sticky


COVERAGE
From a 1-10 .. I would give this a 3 in terms of coverage,
rather than coverage, it kind of boosts your complexion a bit.

SHADES
I have this in HONEY and SPICE.
The one I constantly repurchase is honey, and I have noted that there is a difference between the old formula and new formula.
Old Honey shade: a light to medium warm shade with some orange undertone to it
New Honey shade: a light beige shade with yellow undertones
New Spice shade [which I bought for summer]: a medium beige with neutral undertones.

PRICE
For $1 or £1.50 you get a sample size tinted moisturiser, which for me lasts a month or maximum 6 weeks.

BLENDABILITY
This is quite easy to blend and apply with the ELF studio powder brush

FINISH
This feels so soothing and fresh on the face which makes it perfect for summer.

PHOTOGRAPHY
I don't recommend using this with flash photography due to SPF15 in the formula. I have used it, it makes me look like a ghost.

BOTTOM LINE
This is an awesome product for this summer. I repurchased multiple times, and I will continue to repurchase. I definitely recommend. On a side note – I know 2 people who got a bad reaction to this so make sure to test it out behind your ear first :)
