How To Make Your Own: Tinted Moisturizer!

Hi everyone!!! You may be curios about how to make your own tinted moisturizer (or moisturizing foundation). It is a super easy DIY project. Before continuing I have to say this wasn't my idea. I have seen many tutorials on how to blend different products together to achieve your own 'little creation'. I got the inspiration of making this post from Michelle Phan's recent video named Beach Beauty (link). She's really gorgeous, and practical. I love how can she turn the most simplest thing into an amazing look. As you may know from various of my previous posts (like this), my skin is oily. Probably now you're asking yourself: Why a person with oily skin wants to make her own tinted moisturizer? Haha! Two reasons; first: I want to help readers with dry skin, and two: I am SURELY going to do this to my matte face sunscreen! Yes, you can also do the same steps with your face sunscreen to have a tinted sunscreen!! I hope you like this post. Tell me if you have made this before. Smile :)


What do you need? 
- Liquid or cream foundation in the shade of your preference.
- Foundation brush of your preference.
- Facial moisturizer of your preference.
- Fashion magazine to help you wait for the product to dry :)


- Please notice that I used the amount shown in picture for instant application. If you prefer, prepare a significant quantity of your tinted moisturizer and store in an empty *and clean* container. 



- Blend them with your foundation brush until it looks even.



- Apply the product with the same brush (or another tool, if you like), let it dry, and enjoy your own tinted moisturizer!! Remember that you can try this amazing project with your sunscreen too!

  6. I've read a lot about this method but for some reason I've never tried it. When my BB creams run out I'll definitely give this a go as I prefer the consistency so much more to a thick foundation!
