It’s a skin thing!
“We have formulated a unique, high performance beauty must-have that delivers great results on all skin types. Sheer Skin Tint is our first step into effortless, easy to wear colour. It’s a skin thing!” Liz Earle, Co-Founder
Our new Sheer Skin Tint is the natural bridge from skincare through to colour. It is rich and creamy like a foundation, yet so lightweight it glides effortlessly onto the skin, blending easily to enhance natural skin tones. We believe in exceeding our customers’ expectations, so just like our award-winning Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser, Sheer Skin Tint delivers dependable, visible results for all skin types.
Designed for use all year round, our unique, high performance formulation leaves skin looking dewy, even and radiant, with the perfect level of coverage for every woman to achieve naturally beautiful skin.
With mineral UV protection SPF15, Sheer Skin Tint is also enriched with our own carefully selected blend of botanicals: natural source vitamin E, avocado and borage, to work in harmony with our Liz Earle Naturally Active Skincare range.
First time, right shade
To support our ‘Progress not Perfection’ environmental values and our ‘Reduce, Re-use, Recycle’ campaign, when customers order Sheer Skin Tint by mail, we are providing samples of all three shades with each first purchase. This is to help customers ensure they select the right shade, first time – before they open their full size product, which will also help us avoid unnecessary landfill of good unused product.
Liz Earle Sheer Skin Tint will be available from September 8th 2011.
£21.00/40ml in 3 shades; Bare, Beige, Beach
The Colour Story
Our journey in search of great skin began in 1995 with one simple goal; to create simple, fuss-free, high performance skincare that could be depended on every day, whatever your age or skin type. With that aim in mind we created our multi award-winning Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser, which 16 years on, has changed the way women around the world in over 90 countries now cleanse their skin.
Today each and every one of our products continue to be made with the same level of care and devotion. Now we’re combining our heritage with the expertise of a specially chosen team of make up professionals, to create our much requested colour range.
Over the last 16 years our customers have been asking us to create a make up range that gives the same great results as our skincare. As a trusted beauty specialist, Liz has over 20 years of personal experience working with leading international make up artists for TV and photo shoots. Co-founders Liz and Kim also share a personal passion for natural-looking make up at home and work, all of which helps us to really understand what women want from their make up. This has ensured that our exciting next step is everything a woman would want and need: make up that really performs, works in harmony with and delivers the same dependable results as their Liz Earle Naturally Active Skincare and looks natural, enhancing rather than masking their skin.
Our island home is the inspiration for the packaging design. Our own unique ‘marine’ colour and shimmering pearl finish reflect the way the warm summer sunshine gently filters down through the glistening, inky depths of The Solent. Our new logo design reflects our evolution into Liz Earle Colour.
How to use:
Apply to forehead, nose, cheeks and chin. Blend in with your fingertips. We recommend that you leave around 10 minutes for your moisturiser to sink in before applying our Sheer Skin Tint. A little really goes a long way. For a lightweight look and feel apply a very small amount. Sheer Skin Tint is buildable, so if you want more coverage apply another thin layer, rather than applying more at once.
Liz Earle Sheer Skin Tint currently caters for light skin tones to medium-dark Caucasian skin tones; it will also be suitable for some Asian skin tones. As we develop the range further we will develop a wider range of shades for more ethnic skin tones.

Tap the Toner {Tip of the Day}
Ok, so using toners is a very prevalent custom and there are various methods of using a toner. You might use a cotton to apply it on your skin or spray it on your face directly so as to avoid wastage of the product. But, I found the best method to be cupping the palm and pouring the toner onto the palm and then tapping it into the skin. Pat the skin hard like you are slapping the face. This improves blood circulation and allows the toner to get absorbed quickly. I have been using the pouring method since I had been sent the Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic in the small bottle and as usual I found that the cotton was drinking up most of the product so I started pouring it onto my palm and then applying it on my face. And, I picked up the patting of the toner from Sesame’s blog. She did a post on how to apply the skin care products which is extremely awesome.
Update on Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic {Product Review}
I was sent a small sample of this tonic some time back and I had reviewed it here. At that time, I had mentioned that the toner was heavy for my skin and probably a spray bottle would be helpful in controlling the amount of the product applied. So, consequently, Louise sent me the spritzer to try out. I have been using the spritzer since almost a month and I would like to update my experience accordingly. Before I write the review, I would like to mention this review is not for the benefit of the brand. Instead, I had missed out on certain salient points of the product in my earlier review so including them and sharing my experience with the spritzer. Check out the toner at the website.
My Experience
Ok, so I have never used a toner before except for rose water. So, using this toner was very new for me and since I used it from the bottle directly, it always resulted in usage of more product and consequently it became very heavy for my skin. Using the spritzer was also a challenge for me in the starting coz I always used to spray it more thinking this little amount wouldn’t be enough for the skin. But, controlling my urge, I gradually found out that only 3 sprays are more than enough for my face. And, after letting it dry for 2-3 minutes and following with Liz Earle Skin Repair Moisturizer, my skin was extremely soft and looked radiant. I then used the toner with other products like Himalaya Revitalizing Night Cream and Varnya and the result was equally good.Now, coming to other aspects of the toner. The toner is alcohol free and is full of natural ingredients like aloevera and natural Vitamin E. The consistency of this toner is almost like water and gets absorbed into the skin very quickly and keeps the skin supple. So, if I compare the ingredients of this toner with others available in the market, I would definitely go for this one even though the price is a bit on the higher side. Also, the toner would last quite a long while coz you need just 3-5 sprays at a time. One can use the spritzer during hot summer months to keep the face fresh and radiant or during air travel where moisture is sucked out due to the air conditioning. I had found other reviews about this toner and found them to be quite favorable and one lady had recommended this one for air travels specially. The toner fulfills the need for hydration of the skin without making it sticky if used int he right quantity.
My Recommendation
Yes, absolutely!!! I know its costly but it is worth it and lasts quite a long time.
