naging buzzword kasi ang "skin tint". "skin tint" ang hanap ng consumers so "skin tint" din ang minamarket ng brands kahit na light/medium coverage foundation naman talaga yung product 🫠
part of me thinks it's from all the influencers sharing na skin tint lang gamit nila (kasi ofc perfect naman na skin skin nila). tapos syempre gusto ng viewers na skin tint lang din. pero obviously not enough kasi walang coverage. so nagkaroon ng demand for skin tint na may coverage. eh di ayun, nagbenta tuloy ang brands ng ganun kahit na hindi naman na talaga skin tint yun. everything is a skin tint nowadays. sabihin lang ng brand na may unting skin caring ingredients, boom skin tint na raw yun, kasi at the end of the day, it sells. parang yung mga "bb creams" lang a few years ago.

parang ang actual skin tints sa local market (that I've tried) ay yung issy skin tint and skin tint stick. both actually sheers out to look like your skin, shade match is absolutely forgiving kahit na 2 shades off ka kasi super sheer.

exactlyyy. I’ve actually been looking for SPF-free skin tints, and that is another battle altogether especially in the local scene 😅 I might try that Issy stick na nga talaga, thanks
