For some days and for some people, foundations and concealers just feel like way too much work — and way too much coverage. While there’s certainly a time and a place for a full-coverage face, there’s no denying the effortless and hydrating properties of a tinted moisturizer. But although the concept of a tinted moisturizer sounds pretty simple, there are tons of specific ingredients that make the difference between an OK tinted moisturizer and an amazing tinted moisturizer. And by “amazing tinted moisturizer,” we really mean one that actually — well, you know…moisturizes.

So we asked makeup artists, cosmetic chemists, and Allure editors to break down what they think are the best tinted moisturizers out there. If you love makeup that comes with added skin-care benefits for plump, dewy, and hydrated skin, try one of these 16 picks.

Whether you end up loving an older staple from a brand like Laura Mercier or an experimentative new take like Ilia Beauty’s pigmented serum, you’ll find your skin is in much better shape for it.
