High Performance Tinted Moisturizer Formulated by Dr. Macrene Alexiades, MD, PhD · Dual Board-Certified Dermatologist & Research Scientist
Your skin, perfected — a sheer, color-adapting veil of hydration, brightening, and environmental defense.
Where the High Performance Concealer builds coverage, the Tinted Moisturizer does something more nuanced: it evens, brightens, and protects while letting your skin show through. Formulated on the same clinical active base Dr. Alexiades developed for the concealer — the same four forms of hyaluronic acid, the same eight-plant antioxidant shield, the same full amino acid complex — but worn as a daily treatment moisturizer that carries a sheer, luminous wash of adaptive color.
This is not a tinted moisturizer that happens to have some actives. It is a dermatologist's treatment formula that happens to give you a beautiful finish.
Available in six color-adapting shades.
Key Actives
Brightening complex — resveratrol & tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (stabilized vitamin C) — A stabilized, oil-soluble vitamin C paired with resveratrol penetrates where conventional vitamin C cannot, visibly evening skin tone, reducing the appearance of dark spots, and imparting lasting luminosity beneath the adaptive tint.
Milk thistle (Silybum marianum ethyl ester) — A rare, clinically-relevant botanical antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that calms reactive skin while protecting against the oxidative damage that drives uneven tone and dullness.
Eight-plant anti-pollutant shield — Epigallocatechin gallate and its glucoside derivative, green tea leaf extract, ginkgo biloba, pomegranate, feverfew, yerba mate, and coffee seed extract form a comprehensive defense against environmental aggressors — particulate pollution, UV-induced oxidative stress, and infrared damage — that are the primary drivers of premature skin aging and loss of radiance.
Superoxide dismutase — One of the skin's own endogenous antioxidant enzymes, included at a clinical level to neutralize free radical damage at the cellular level before it translates to visible aging.
Four forms of hyaluronic acid — Sodium hyaluronate, sodium acetylated hyaluronate, sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer, and hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate work at different molecular weights and depths for layered, all-day hydration that plumps fine lines from within.
Full amino acid complex — Arginine, glycine, alanine, serine, valine, proline, threonine, isoleucine, histidine, and phenylalanine mirror the skin's own natural moisturizing factors, continuously restoring softness, barrier integrity, and the appearance of smooth, healthy skin.
Bisabolol & tocopherol — Botanical soothing and vitamin E antioxidant support to calm inflammation and protect the skin's lipid barrier throughout the day.
The Finish
Sheer, luminous, and skin-like. Six color-adapting shades flex to meet your skin tone rather than sitting on top of it, delivering the look of well-rested, evenly-lit skin with no visible product line.
Wear alone for a light, natural finish or layer under the High Performance Concealer for targeted coverage where needed.
Shade guide: Light or Light-Medium → porcelain skin tones Medium or Medium-Deep → fair to light tan skin tones Deep or Extra Deep → tan to dark skin tones
The Science Behind the Glow
Pollution, UV exposure, and oxidative stress are the three primary environmental drivers of dullness, uneven tone, and accelerated fine lines. Dr. Alexiades built the anti-pollutant and brightening architecture of this formula around the same multi-pathway defense strategy she applies clinically — not a single hero ingredient, but a layered system of antioxidants working at different mechanisms simultaneously. The result is a daily wear product that actively counters the damage your skin accumulates every day you put it on.
What You Will See
Immediately: A sheer, luminous, color-adapted finish that evens skin tone and imparts a natural, healthy glow.
With regular use: Visibly reduced fine lines and wrinkles, improved radiance, more even skin tone, and measurably better defense against the daily environmental stressors that age skin prematurely.

DR. MACRENE actives
Highly potent, plant-derived actives in this product.
Powered by patented multi-active technology.
"It has a more full-coverage finish [than] other tinted moisturizers I've tried. What sets it apart from foundation, though, is that it doubles as both makeup and skincare. The combination of ingredients—such as peptides and hyaluronic acid—evens out skin tone, softens fine lines, and diminishes dark spots."
