Ingredient Insights

Hyaluronic Acid

A hydration hero, skin-plumping powerhouse, and the reason why our iconic tinted moisturizer delivers that signature healthy glow.

Hyaluronic Acid is a naturally occurring molecule in skin known for its ability to hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. In hydrating makeup formulas, it helps attract and retain moisture, improving the look of skin texture and comfort.

In COMPLEXION RESCUE® Tinted Moisturizer, Hyaluronic Acid plays a key role in why this hydrating tinted moisturizer for dry and combination skin feels weightless, never cakey, and always fresh. It helps replenish and boost skin's moisture.

FAQs

How do I stop under-eye concealer from creasing on mature skin?

Use a hydrating, mineral-based concealer like bareMinerals ORIGINAL Liquid Mineral Concealer™, apply sparingly, blend thoroughly, and set lightly only where needed.

What is the best type of concealer for fine lines and wrinkles?

Opt for a lightweight, creamy formula with light-reflecting pigments and skin-hydrating ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or peptides.

Should I use eye cream or primer before applying concealer?

Yes. Hydrating the area with both helps smooth skin and ensures concealer applies evenly and resists creasing.

How much concealer should I apply under the eyes as skin matures?

Just a few small dots are enough—blend outward to keep the finish light and prevent buildup in lines.

How can I touch up concealer without it looking cakey?

Blot gently, mist with hydrating spray, then tap in a tiny amount of concealer for a natural refresh.
