Estee Lauder DayWear Sheer Tint Review


Most days, I opt for a natural looking, 'barely there' make up style and tinted moisturize is one of my all-time favourites. So I was excited to try out Estee Lauder's DayWear Sheer Tint.

It is, as the name suggests, a very sheer tinted moisturizer, so if you need heavy coverage I would suggest going for a full-on foundation product and steering clear of sheer all together!

Don't get me wrong though, this product is great when you are in need of minimal coverage. It definitely evened out the look of my skin and reduced the sight of red and blotchy areas. I also found it lasts noticeably longer than other tinted moisturizers I have used.

DayWear also smells AMAZING! To me it's sent is fresh and fruity. If you find that kind of smell (especially on your face) unpleasant or overbearing I would give it a miss, though in my opinion it is not too strong a scent.


THE DETAILS:

Estee Lauder DayWear Sheer Tint Release Advanced Multi-Protection Anti-Oxidant Moisturizer 
SPF 15 50ml - £38

  • Evens the look of skin tone
  • Reduces the appearance of premature aging signs
  • One sheer shade that works for every skin tone
  • Tint appears as you apply
  • Long-lasting hydration
  • Non-acnegenic
I can honestly say that this is one of the best tinted moisturizer I have tried, my only issue being that, for the price, I would hope for at least 75ml if not 100ml. However this a very, very good product.
