Shade Range & Color Accuracy▼7/10

Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 launched with 30 shades, including deeper options, with undertone diversity across the range. Not as broad as Fenty's 50.

Price & Value for Money▼5/10

Super Serum Skin Tint is $48. The highest price in the skin-tint category. It replaces both a serum and an SPF product, which reduces total cost for buyers who would buy both separately.

Ingredient Quality & Skin Compatibility▼8/10

Certification is mixed by product, not blanket: Super Serum Skin Tint and select others carry the EWG Verified mark, while much of the rest of the line carries the stricter MADE SAFE certification instead. The brand is also cruelty-free and vegan across the board.

Availability & Where to Buy▼7/10

Sold at Sephora, ILIA's own site, and select specialty retailers. Not in Ulta, Target, or department stores.

PROS
✓Super Serum Skin Tint ($48) contains SPF 40 using mineral zinc oxide UV filters. Protection against both UVA and UVB without chemical sunscreen ingredients
✓EWG Verified status means every ingredient has been individually reviewed by the Environmental Working Group. A third-party screened standard
✓The entire product line is vegan and cruelty-free, with no mainland China sales
✓True Skin Serum Foundation ($52) contains vitamin C and niacinamide. Active ingredients that target hyperpigmentation
✓The skin tint formula is non-comedogenic. Tested not to block pores
✓In-store at Sephora, so professional shade matching is available
CONS
✕Super Serum Skin Tint is $48. The most expensive skin tint in this review
✕Coverage is light to medium. Blemishes, redness, and dark spots will still show through
✕30 shades is fewer than Fenty (50) or MAC (99). People at the very deep or very fair ends may not find an exact match
✕ILIA does not have a full-face range. You will need other brands for eye makeup and setting products
✕Mineral SPF with zinc oxide can leave a white cast on deeper skin tones
