Ami Colé Skin-Enhancing Tint

So let's talk about what the skin tint is offering up. For starters, the formula is clean, vegan, and cruelty-free. I know those are three buzzwords that can mean a range of things. But through the brand's Product Philosophy, I learned a lot. For Ami Colé, clean means their products are formulated sans endocrine disruptors (think: parabens, benzophenones, bisphenols, phthalates, etc.) that can disrupt your hormones. A pledge I love.

However, with a direct-to-consumer brand, finding your perfect shade match can be a challenge. But Ami Colé makes it easy by sharing photos of women under each shade. For example, I wasn't sure if I was Deep 1 or 2. But seeing an image and getting a breakdown of the undertones under the picture, I was able to select my perfect match, which was Deep 2, formulated for deep skin with golden or yellow undertones.

I first tested the formula by applying it to my face with my fingers, and it blended into my jawline seamlessly. I continued with a Beauty Blender. Because this formula is made to enhance and not cover up the skin, it felt like I had nothing on. And it played nice with my skin care and SuperGoop SPF.

Ami Colé Skin-Enhancing Concealer

Concealer is a staple in my makeup routine because of my hyperpigmentation. So I'm always on the hunt for a formula that doesn't cause breakouts and covers without caking. The Skin-Enhancing Concealer is fairly new to the Ami Colé lineup, but reviewers love it. So I was hoping for the same experience.

At first glance on the website, I loved that they shared two shades for each complexion. If you know your shade in the Skin Tint, they curate your concealer shades. For example, since I was Deep 2, my concealer shades are Deep 2 and Deep 2.5 Finding the right shade for concealing and brightening has always been a struggle for me, and this took the guesswork right out. The formula somehow manages to be lightweight but provides coverage. When applying my concealer, I let it dry down before working it in. As a result, I didn't have to go back in and touch any areas, and I could see my skin through the product.

Ami Colé Skin Melt Loose Powder

I have a cult-favorite powder I don't go anywhere without, but I tried this one in its place. First, let's talk about the packaging. One thing I don't like about loose powders is you can lose product if the packaging has holes that are too large. Ami Colé, said aht, aht, aht. We're not only going to develop a talc-free powder that sets, hydrates (thanks to hyaluronic acid), and doesn't leave skin cakey—but the packaging keeps the fine powder in its place.

The packaging has a screw on the top, a black piece that snaps on top of the powder, and then a mess net that keeps it in place. So you have a trio of product protection. I have to say. I was incredibly impressed with the design.

For me, Ami Colé is a brand I will continue to support. The products live up to their hype. I can't wait to see what they do next!
