Here's how to make your own tinted moisturiser according to TikTok
TikTok has brought us yet another earth shattering, groundbreaking and life-changing beauty hack. And no, that is not sarcasm.
The DIY tinted moisturiser trick introduced to us by make up artist and TikTok sensation, Jay Iziah, turns foundation into a multi-purpose, multi-shade complexion perfecting weapon.

All you need is your full-coverage foundation and a moisturiser you are happy to use on your face. Mix the two on the back of your hand and voila, your very own customisable, tinted moisturiser.

With the addition of moisturiser, the formula instantly becomes more sheer, making it far more blendable and adaptable to a greater range of skin shades. Gone are the days of buying different foundation shades for summer and winter, and a BB cream for when you don’t require as much coverage.
Plus, the flexibility of this DIY hack allows you to add in sun protection via an SPF moisturiser, tanning drops for buildable colour or a liquid highlighter if you’re after an added glow.

And the greatest part of all? You can now extend the life-expectancy of your foundation and use every last drop in the bottle, no matter the season.

I tried doing this and it is a fail for me. Far too moist to apply and hold, no matter how little I used.

I do this all the time. I kind of thought it was an obvious thing everyone already knew.

Do you mix it everyday or do you mix it in advance?

I do that sometimes and sometimes I am doing the other way - depends if I've made up my mind whether I'm going to wear foundation that day or not - a mood thing with me!

I've never put it the other way around; ie moisturiser over foundation. I would have thought it would dull the foundation or at least smudge it.

lol Susmat when I said 'the other way round' I meant that I mixed the two products together (foundation and moisturiser) and put it on my skin together all at once. : ) Sorry I wasn't saying it very well.

oops! My bad. I'll give it a go mixing them before applying though I'm not too sure of the benefit

I've done this and experimented with different moisturiser/foundation combinations.

Mixing moisturiser with foundation is fine, but mixing moisturiser with sunscreen is not. It dilutes it and makes it less effective.

I thought this was common knowledge? I'm 42 and been doing it since my teens.

Yes, I have tried mixing my moisturiser with my foundation but I wasn't happy with the result. It made my face look streaky.

I would have thought that many ladies would have been doing this already just to get that easy even coverage.

I’ve been doing this for years. I also mix in a drop of oil into my foundation and BB for a dewy finish.

I normally try it with my more heavy duty foundations that cover quite a lot so that way I'm still receiving some coverage, not too light, just in between
