I knew Rose Ivory was going to be too deep for me from the swatches online, but as it’s a ‘skin tint’ rather than a straight-up foundation, so I thought the shade might be a little more forgiving.

Some PBS medications are restricted and require prior approval from Medicare before a doctor is able to prescribe them on the PBS. This prior approval to prescribe grants the doctor the Authority to prescribe the desired medicine and have it funded under the PBS. You’ve gotta give Rimmel credit for creating a vegan and ‘clean’ foundation, but for me, it’s not a product I’ll continue using. I’m fine with light coverage bases, but you don’t want them to fade within an hour or two, like the Rimmel Kind & Free Moisturising Skin Tint Foundation does. The skin tint is a beautifully soft and silky texture and feels light on the skin. I applied with fingers and found that it provided a lovely 'my skin but better' finish. Coverage is not high, as you would expect from a skin tint although I did note that it's called a skin tint foundation on the tube which is a bit of a stretch. If you had perfect skin...possibly true.I enjoyed their Wake Me Up Foundation, Match Perfection Foundation and Lasting Finish Foundation, so I was intrigued to see how the new Rimmel Kind & Free Moisturising Skin Tint Foundation would compare to their other complexion products. How hydrating the formula was: Our reviewers loved the hydrating benefits of the tinted moisturiser formula, with many saying they used the skin tint in lieu of moisturiser some days when they wanted a lighter routine. Recently, I’ve been favouring lighter coverage foundations, but I’m sadly not a fan of this particular product. I’m rarely disappointed by Rimmel foundations, but this one doesn’t sit nicely on my skin.

Beauty Crew sent Rimmel London Kind & Free™ Moisturising Skin Tint to a panel of women aged 18 and older with a penchant for all types of base products and an affinity for clean beauty. The lowdown I also don’t like how it sits on my skin, as it ends up looking patchy, and as if I’ve not blended it in properly, regardless of whether I’ve applied it with my fingertips, a BeautyBlender or makeup brush. I think the Rimmel Kind & Free Moisturising Skin Tint Foundation has decent-ish coverage for a product marketed as being a skin tint. It’s more akin to a light to medium coverage foundation than a skin tint. Authority to prescribe an Authority medicine is granted for specific indications and/or for certain patient circumstances.

The Rimmel Kind & Free Moisturising Skin Tint Foundation in Rose Ivory is a lot more warm toned than I’d anticipated, as Rimmel shades with ‘rose’ in the name definitely tend to lean on the cool side.

When worn on it's own, it provides subtle coverage and skin perfecting. On my combination skin the longevity of the skin tint wasn't optimal, maybe only lasting a couple of hours and slightly longer if I set with powder. However I did find that it worked well as skin perfecting base for my foundation. There are a total of twelve shades to choose from, and the lightest shade on offer is 10 Rose Ivory. Whereas the deepest shade is Deep Chocolate. I’ve got dry skin, with dry patches, but somehow this foundation manages to look oily and super shiny on my skin within a couple of hours, which never happens for me, so I can’t imagine it sitting nicely on oily skin.
