I am so excited to talk about this product! Probably because I waited quite some time to justify purchasing it, but now that I have I'm excited to share my opinion! I had never heard of Jouer cosmetics until recently. Missglamorazzi, or Ingrid from the YouTube beauty community talked about this tinted moisturizer in one of her recent beauty favorites (recent, that was in like March, but who's counting). I immediately looked up this product, because if anyone has oily skin, it's me, and living in a state where it is over 100 degrees in the summer with 90% humidity, I needed something a little more withstanding for the upcoming summer months.
It took me about two months to find a good deal and finally justify buying this product. I purchased mine off of eBay for $27.99, retail price is $38 (I would not recommend searching eBay for a lot of beauty products, a lot of sellers can be selling fake products, or even worse used products). I had previously purchased from this seller and I did trust their products so I took a stab at it. Luckily, my product was brand new and still factory sealer. Now after a long awaited arrival I was ready to begin testing it out, just in time for the summer months!
I am in the shade Porcelain, the lightest shade. There are four other shade choices to choose from, linen, nude, chamomile, and hazel. Thankfully, Porcelain was a perfect match for me, before any sort of tan, I could probably move up to the second shade now that it is summer!
As you can see in the picture above, the consistency of the product is thicker than a normal tinted moisturizer. When applying this moisturizer you will notice you get about a medium coverage, which is more than most tinted moisturizers will offer. When using this product I always use a tinted setting powder, which makes this item almost full coverage. The setting powder gives it the final layer or cover which will get me through a long day.
On average, I work a 10-12 hour day about 5 days a week, over time I've learned very few products can last that long even with a few touchups throughout the day, and unfortunately, this moisturizer is one of them. After about 8 hours this product seems to look a little cakey around my nose and cheek areas. I do have very oily skin, so not many products will survive the long trek of my Monday-Friday activities. I have found a few that do the job the best and as disappointed I am to say this, the Matte Moisture Tint did not take the cake.
With all of this said, this product is a great product! It feels great on the skin and it does look very nice and do a good job with coverage. Overall, I do believe it keeps my skin a little more matte than a few other items, but it does not keep my skin matte through the whole day. This product is wonderful for me on my weekends day, the days where I want to wear makeup, but I know it will be for a few activities, and not running around at work for hours and hours.
So the answer is yes, I would recommend this product. If you are looking for a tinted moisturizer and not a foundation this is probably the product for you! We just have to remember this is a tinted moisturizer and is not made to replace your foundation all together. If you are interested in purchasing this item it is available here
Thank you guys so much for reading!
