The 12 Best Clean & Natural Skin Tints Of 2024

Denno's go-to skin tint, this power product combines skin care, makeup, and SPF in one. The dewy finish comes from the trio of powerful hydrators including plant-based squalane, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide. The SPF comes from non-nano zinc oxide, which works to protect the skin from UV, blue light, and pollution. Although it offers light coverage, the formula's thick consistency is similar to a full-coverage foundation. That being said, pair it with a concealer and you've got a complete light-coverage daytime base.

If you're on TikTok, you know that EltaMD's sunscreen is a cult favorite. Those who swear by their SPF find it to have little to no white cast and go on smooth, without feeling like a greasy sunscreen. And yes—the same is true about this tinted version. If you're going to be out in the sun, there's nothing wrong with doubling down on SPF to keep your skin protected from photodamage (we know that can lead to premature skin aging). This is a great option for those days when you're headed to the beach or taking an outdoor stroll and want some sun protection with a little glam.

If you struggle with skin texture, this product will be your next holy grail: It's called a slip tint for a reason, as it glides on seamlessly. At the same time, the tint gives a dewy finish without looking greasy, as other oil-based formulas can. It also includes pansy flower, which works to hydrate the skin and offer antioxidant protection. Plus, licorice root extract helps brighten the skin so your glow shines through. 

Need a little more coverage? Kosas' skin tint is your best bet with a natural finish that blurs your complexion—and boasts skin care benefits in the long run. Formulated with powerful botanical oils including meadowfoam, jojoba, rosehip seed, and red raspberry, it leaves skin feeling soothed, hydrated, and balanced. Who doesn't want their makeup to better the look of their bare skin? 

Another product that's on the brink of being a step in your skin care routine, this serum helps smooth the appearance of fine lines and leaves behind a dewy glow that makes your skin look incredible. Hyaluronic acid works to plump the skin, which is an essential first step to a radiant finish. Then the skin gets an extra dose of lasting hydration thanks to squalane oil. Not to mention Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 (an amino acid peptide) works to protect the skin from environmental damage—but the coverage is light, so keep that in mind.

Yes, this one is technically a foundation. But here's the thing: If you're looking for coverage without a cakey effect, it does just that for you. Skin tints generally offer some sort of skin-focused benefit, and this one falls in line. The formula contains two superstar ingredients for the skin: niacinamide, which works to balance oil production, and hyaluronic acid, which plumps and hydrates the skin. We won't bore you with the rest of the ingredient list (though it is impressive, we may add), but it even contains SPF.

This mineral sunscreen gives light to medium coverage that blends like a breeze. Organic coconut oil and broccoli seed oil work to keep your skin hydrated, though we would suggest using another light moisturizer underneath if your skin is on the drier side. It's formulated with non-nano zinc, which is a better option if you're looking to keep your products extra eco-friendly. Because this product doesn't have a very oily consistency, it works well for buildable coverage and touch-ups throughout the day. 

Supergoop is a go-to brand for tons of skin care lovers, especially those on beauty TikTok. There's something to be said for the sheer amount of mentions this item gets on social media, but we'll break down exactly why this product has become so popular. First off, many skin tints offer a little bit of sun protection, but this one kicks it up to SPF 50, meaning you don't necessarily need to layer another SPF under it. Apple extract and Irish moss are both full of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to help brighten and protect your skin. They also offer an undertone-specific shade range, making it easier to find your best match. 

Our must-try for maximum radiance, this skin tint offers coverage on the lighter side, but it also adds dew and glow thanks to a creamy texture and hydrating ingredients. Hyaluronic acid and olive-derived squalane keep your skin looking bright for hours to come. This one is better to blend with your hands rather than a brush or beauty sponge. Pro tip: If you want a dewy finish but tend to get oily throughout the day, carry some finishing powder on you to touch up the t-zone.

If you have trouble finding products that work well with your complexion, you should definitely check out Ami Cole. This brand bases their shades on undertones found in melanin-rich skin, but each works with a range of complexions. This skin-enhancing tint gives you that coveted skin but better effect. Powerful plant-based ingredients including baobab seed, hibiscus flower, and pumpkin seed extract work together to balance complexion, hydrate skin, and combat free radicals thanks to the antioxidant content. 

If your skin tends to be on the drier side, this is a great lightweight, hydrating option. The plethora of natural oils including avocado, grapeseed, and jojoba help to keep your skin feeling soft and supple while giving a dewy foundation. The applicator is an antimicrobial glass roller ball that makes for easy, mess-free application. Bonus: This product is made to be refilled, which helps cut down on plastic waste.

If you're just starting out with skin tints, this is a great affordable option to test the waters. Standout ingredients include rosewater, Irish sea moss, and cucumber extract, which work wonders to keep skin hydrated and toned. It does contain sunscreen, but not enough to ditch your regular SPF—but you'll save enough with the under-$20 price to purchase both.
