The second ingredient is hydrogenated vegetable oil. So no, not oil free.

Living in Hawaii with oily skin I am looking for the perfect moisturizer. This one felt great and the coverage was sheer and natural looking. It did not make my face look oily but 1 week later I had lots of acne all along my face. I really wanted this product to work but I tried again and it caused me more breakouts.

I have extremely oily/sensitive skin and this product works beautifully. It doesn't create an oily feel...just light and smooth. Also, it doesn't clog pores - I haven't broken out once since I used it. I am a HUGE fan of this product and would definitely recommend giving it a shot. It is so worth the money!

Does it feel/look like you are wearing make up?
I don't want something that is too cakey and noticeable. I want it to be perfectly natural but definitely hides my flaws (I have some acne scars and a few blemishes).

It does not feel heavy at all, and definitely has enough coverage to hide scars. Its buildable coverage.

This is a lot different than foundation! It sounds like just the thing you're looking for. Be sure to check out what other brands have to offer as well, and read through all the reviews as to make the best choice.
This stuff is not cakey or too over-powering. It might be a bit oily depending on your skin type but it is sheer, evens out skin tone and redness without being heavy like foundation. I myself, having dry skin and redness, and a big fan of tinted moisturizer when I do not have the time or ideal weather for a full face of make up.

This does not feel like your wearing makeup. I use this to even my skin tone, and it does a pretty good job at covering my ance scars.

I love this product for that very reason - it doesn't feel like I'm wearing foundation. I've never worn foundation, but decided it was time for me to use a product that gave me some kind of coverage. It is sheer, though. It helps w/my sun damage spots, but doesn't necessarily hide them altogether.

IMO its doesn't feel as if you're wearing makeup. However, I would use caution with this product if you've had or do have acne issues. It aggravated my acne (had cystic acne within days of wearing the product) but the color blends nicely and its feels good on the skin

Hope in a Tinted Moisturizer gives you a sheer to light coverage. Depending on the severity of the scarring you may need a concealer as well. The finish is natural without looking too matte or dewy. We hope this answers your question!

I would definitely go to the store and sample. I have what would be classified by most people as olive skin with pink undertones. I ended up with "light". I would have never guessed that.

Color ranges - are VERY PEACHY - be extremely careful -

Get the sample of colors from a magazine -

In general, i wanted so much to like this product, but i found it too terrible for words and actually returned it. I never return cosmetics but it was just so awful that i couldn't even add it to the proverbial "just in case" bucket under the sink.

This smells nothing like Hope In A Jar Moisturizer. It barely has any scent at all. I can smell a little sunscreen upon application, but that can't be avoided, since this contains sunscreen. I can smell Hope In A Jar Original on my face till I wash it off, but I never even smell Hope In a Tinted. Even though they are both "Hope" products, the "Tinted" moisturizer is completely different from the Hope Originals, SPFs, etc. The texture is similar to that of a sheer foundation, and when it sets it doesn't budge. (It's not great for layering). It doesn't rub off on everything like most other tinted moisturizers, and it actually seems to control oil breakthrough. I find this is best used alone. Occasionally I've applied The Present before or after this tinted moisturizer, but I get a more natural-looking color and finish when it's used all by itself.

I have the hope in a jar (original) and I believe that this Tinted Moisturizer does NOT smell similar to it at all. It has a very light smell that reminds me of sun-tan lotion. I hope this helps!

This one has the exact same smell as Hope in a Jar. I think it is slightly muted though, but it is consistent with Hope in a Jar.

It's SPF 20, with octinoxate (7.5%), and oxybenzone (3.5%). Octinoxate, also known as octyl methoxycinnamate, is a UVB blocker. Oxybenzone absorbs short wave UVA-2 radiation.

If you're going to spend a lot of time outdoors you'd want to wear this over Hope In A Jar SPF 30 or Here Comes the Sun SPF 40 so you get protection from long UVA radiation as well.

Question
cakey and blotchy
I applied it (medium) over moisturizer, which was hope in a jar original formula. I have normal to partly oily skin, but not much oily in winter. The tinted moisturizer just didn't cover evenly, it looks blotchy and when I try to smooth it with fingertips it becomes cakey and rolls off my face leaving flakey stuff... i exfoliate everyday and has pretty smooth surface, until I apply this product. What am I doing wrong here? or is it just not the product for me? I had high expectation for it, since I love philosophy line.

I had the same experience, it has splotchy coverage and settles into pores. A primer underneath helps, but you shouldn't need that with a tinted moisturizer. This was a disappointment.

Hi Beauty Sister.
Try just use it as your moisturizer. Skip the Hope in a Jar. You might be over-moisturizing which is causing the cake effect.

Question
Different than supernatural poreless flawless spf?
I love Philosophy & use the supernatural poreless flawless spf 15 everyday over HIAJ, and under the supernatural airbrushed canvas powder. Is this essentially the same kind of thing? Would this just be a tinted version of regular HIAJ or more similar to the supernatural poreless flawless spf 15? When exactly is it applied?

I actually use this instead of the HIAJ + the Present which I used to use together. I'm not familiar with the poreless product you spoke of, but I am pleased with the tinted moisturizer so much so that I use it as foundation/moisturizer, and only use blush and eye makeup for a finished look. LOVE the product. Give it a try.

I tested the product in the store. This is comparable to Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer. Basically, it's a very sheer foundation that is a great moisturizer. I believe it would be used in place of the flawless/poreless; although if you want additional coverage you could use powder on top.
