I found this rare gem Maybelline Super Skin Tint in summer and I thought it might not work when switching the seasons. If you’re anything like me, you find a product that works in summer, only to wonder if it’ll still perform when winter hits. That was my exact thought with the Maybelline Super Skin Tint and I’m so glad I was wrong even though I have tried the Maybelline Lumi foundation
I picked this product up at Chemist Warehouse during the summer months here in Tasmania, Australia, and I didn’t expect much. But deep into winter, it’s still holding up and has officially become my makeup staple.
Let me break down why this drugstore gem might be worth a spot in your routine too.
From Summer Glow to Winter Radiance
When I first used the Maybelline Super Skin Tint, I instantly loved how lightweight, breathable, and easy to blend it was. The coverage? Just enough to smooth out your skin tone without hiding your skin. The finish? Slightly glowy and supernatural perfect for those “no makeup” makeup days.
Fast forward to winter, Tasmania’s weather can be drying and dull, so I expected this tint to flake, fade, or just fall flat. But nope. It still blends like a dream and leaves my skin looking healthy and fresh, even when I skip setting powder.
