Search for the HG between Glossier skint tint & Elf halo glow liquid filter

7 replies

I currently use a combo of Glossier skin tint and Elf halo glow liquid filter.

I use the halo glow on my cheekbones and forehead and the glossier tint on the rest of my face and blend in with a brush.

The Glossier product has very light / sheer coverage which has always been ok for me, but recently, I’ve started to think I would like a teeny bit more coverage.

The Elf Halo glow has a wonderful dewy shine but the product increasingly feels a little bit heavy.

Ideally, I’m looking for a product which sits somewhere in between both which I can use on my whole face.

The ideal product would still be light coverage but with a dewy finish.

I have pale celtic skin with freckles so don’t want full coverage - just want my skin to look better and more glowy / dewy.

I’m G10 in glossier and shade 2 (fair light) in Elf Halo Glow liquid.

I can see that there’s a new Elf halo glow skin tint but the reviews I’ve seen don’t seem particularly positive so far.

If anyone has any suggestions or recommendations, I’d love to hear them!

Thanks

Erborian cc cream, I use the Clair. It’s a skin perfect or, so evens out skin tone, but doesn’t smother your skin, it just has a healthy glow.
I’ve never used either of your products though so not sure how the ‘glow’ compares.
I bought a sample to try off eBay before splurging on the full size so I could test out coverage & colours. John Lewis has 20% off atm too.

All came on here to say Erborian CC cream!

I tried the Elf Halo Glow Skin Tint and it was heavy, hard to blend, and heavier coverage than I expected from a tint.

I really like Glossier Skin Tint, I've been using it for years.

Beauty of Joseon Daily Tinted Fluid Sunscreen is nice if you have it there.

Thanks all. Funnily enough I came across Erborian and Beauty of Joseon options today when I was browsing on Space NK, so thanks for that. I will do some more research on both options.

I seem to recall from previous threads about skin tints that the Erborian one always came out strongly too…

I take back the Erborian recommendation.
My new one was just delivered yesterday and I noticed the little indicator on the back how long it lasts after opening and it’s only 6 months!
I can’t use a whole tube in 6 months so I now either have to dispose of it, or risk reduced spf efficacy, unless I alway use a separate sunscreen under it.
The Clinique city block I used to use before they ruined the formula was 24 months.

L’Oréal plumping serum is great

Erborian cc cream can read orange if you’re pale, it does on me.
