‘I'm blown away with how good this tinted moisturiser makes my skin feel'

I've tried out lots of tinted moisturisers recently, and I thought I'd found a favourite – but this new launch trumps them all for hydration and a radiant finish
With the weather getting warmer, this spring I've been on a mission to find one of the best tinted moisturisers and skin tints to replace my full coverage foundation with. I've already found some brilliant new ones, including Clarins, Hourglass and Laura Mercier, but this newest one I've tried has immediately taken the top spot.
Having previously tried Jones Road's viral What The Foundation – which received mixed reviews – I was keen to see how the latest base product by the skincare and make-up brand (which was founded by Bobbi Brown) would fare. Jones Road is known for its natural-looking, easy-to-use products, and Just Enough Tinted Moisturizer is no exception – and I'd go as far as to say that it's the best tinted moisturiser I've ever tried.
Priced at £44, Just Enough Tinted Moisturizer comes in 16 shades (a good range for a sheer face base), is non-comedogenic (meaning it won't block pores) and contains sodium hyaluronate, a humectant with molecules even smaller than hyaluronic acid for deep hydration. I picked the shade Ivory, which was the perfect match for me, although the shades are so flexible that you could probably find two or three that would suit you.
It goes on like an absolute dream. I normally prefer to use a make-up brush to apply any type of foundation or face base but this goes on so well with fingers, without any smears or patches; it's totally seamless.
The coverage is very sheer – lighter, I'd say, than the Clarins one – so it's not one for you if you need to cover prominent redness or marks (or you'll need to use a good concealer over the top), but it leaves the most lovely dewy finish to the skin – really natural, healthy and just subtly perfected.
The two things that most impressed me though were, firstly, how well it lasted it lasted. I usually find that even the most expensive skin tints and tinted moisturisers turn patch
y on my skin as the day goes on and the 'hydrating' element of the formula wears off. Not this Jones Road one though – it stays feeling fresh all day.
I also couldn't believe how soft and smooth it made my skin look and feel; I honestly couldn't stop touching my face all day. Unlike the brand's What The Foundation, however, it's not greasy or slippy at all, and other make-up also sat beautifully on top of it.
Of course, there may be other factors at play as to why I like how this looks on my skin. I'm really happy with my skincare routine at the moment – a simple one featuring Teresa Tarmey Cleanser, £42, a brilliant new vitamin C serum that I'm not allowed to reveal yet, and Ultra Violette Future Fluid SPF 50+ Superlight Mineral SKINSCREEN, £38. I've also been diligently using my ZIIP Halo facial toning device most mornings, which I think is really making a difference.
If you like the sound of a lightweight, light coverage tinted moisturiser but have never quite found the right one for you, however, I urge you to give this Jones Road one a try.
