Veil Hydrating Skin Tint

Hourglass Veil Hydrating Skin Tint is a skincare-weight base. Light coverage, radiant finish, and a formula that raises moisture levels in the skin by as much as 52% according to the brand — so it reads as glow rather than as a layer of foundation.

The thin liquid sinks in fast, blurs what needs blurring, and is built for all-day comfort rather than full concealment.

What it actually does

• Hydrates while it tints. Hourglass puts the moisture boost at up to 52%, which is where the dewy finish comes from.
• Evens tone with a sheer layer. Per the brand, it diffuses imperfections and visibly evens out skin tone without building up into coverage.
• Melts in quickly. The formula is described as sinking into skin fast, staying comfortable, and plumping and smoothing the complexion as it wears.
• Key ingredients, per the brand. Meadowfoam seed oil to replenish with fatty acids and strengthen the moisture barrier; hyaluronic acid to draw in water and plump; and plant-based squalane to guard against moisture loss and help keep natural radiance.
• Brand consumer study. In an Hourglass US study of 33 participants measured after eight hours, 96% said skin felt nourished all day, 96% said skin felt hydrated all day, and 90% said skin looked healthy all day. Self-reported; individual results differ.
• Formula callouts. Free of parabens, phthalates, mineral oil and triclosan, and listed as vegan and cruelty-free.
• Award. Hourglass notes it as an Allure Best of Beauty award winner.

How to use

1. Place it on the centre of the face, plus the chin and forehead.
2. Blend outward with your fingertips, a damp sponge, or the Ambient Soft Glow Foundation Brush (sold separately).
3. Spot-conceal afterwards if you need more coverage anywhere — this layer is deliberately sheer.

Is it right for you?

Questions

How much coverage does it actually give?

Light. Hourglass classifies the coverage as light and describes it as a sheer veil that softens imperfections and evens tone — not a product that hides them completely.

What does the 52% figure refer to?

It is the brand's claim about moisture: the formula is stated to raise skin's moisture levels by up to 52%, which is what produces the dewy look.

Do I need a brush, or can I use my hands?

Fingertips work, and so does a sponge. Hourglass also points to its Ambient Soft Glow Foundation Brush, sold separately, if you prefer a tool.

Will it last a full day?

All-day comfortable wear is the brand's claim, and its eight-hour consumer study is where the nourished, hydrated and healthy-looking figures come from.

How long does delivery take, and how can I pay?

Delivery takes 3 to 21 working days, depending on availability. Pay with credit card, debit card, Instapay or mobile wallets — no cash on delivery.
