What’s the difference between moisturizer and tinted moisturizer?
Can you use tinted moisturizer twice daily along with cleansing and toning?
Moisturizer has no colour pigmentation for make up and generally has more "good for your skin" properties. Tinted moisturizer is a way to wear make up easily, and quickly while incorporating it into your daily routine. However I would never replace my moisturizer with tinted moisturizer, and i rarely use tinted moisturizer, unless i’m in a serious rush, i have it in my car.
Although I see no problem in applying it twice a day, you will get double the coverage and i think it would really be easier to apply your moisturizer and make up separetly if you’re doing it twice anyways.
A simple routine: wash, tone, moisturize, primer, foundation, and set it with a mineral powder set (Bare Escentuals has a great foundation setter can be found at Sephora). this way your skin gets all the benefits of a proper moisturizer, and you don’t have to apply your make up twice!

I tinted mosturizer will have a little color to slightly even out your skin tone. You might still need some foundation if you have uneven skin tones. You could use it twice daily but at night I would recomend just using regular moisturizer at night.

just use tinted moisturizer in the morning instead of foundation and use a regular moisturizer at night. Its better for your skin to use the tinted moisturizer instead of foundation especially in the summer with all the humidity and hot weather. Using this instead of foundation actually helped clear up my skin which is a miracle. Makeup is so bad for your face so its an especially good idea to use this if you have sensitive skin. then you can apply your bronzer or powder and blush on top of it.

moisturizer is usually white or transparent cream to hydrate your skin…the tintd moisturizer has a bit of color mixed with the hydratant to give your skin a glow and even out your tone.So basically,insteed of putting on moisturizer and tehn fondation,you put this thing on and you save time and work!!

tinted moisturizer has a little coverage – like concealer.
