Milani Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Skin Tint ($16.99) is a new foundation stick with a soft matte finish that has moisturizing ingredients like Murumuru Butter that launched with the Milani Spring 2025 Collection. Available in 25 shades this formula promises to blur lines, even your skin tone, hydrate, and provide light-to-medium coverage. I don’t know if anyone remembers but there was a Milani Conceal + Perfect Foundation Stick that launched back in 2019. I hated it. It was terribly drying but this new formula definitely is a huge improvement.
I am overjoyed that there’s a new foundation stick on the market as I am a HUGE fan of swipe and go foundation sticks. MASSIVE fan! I don’t use a lot of foundation so having the ability to just swipe a little one, blend, and get the rest of my makeup done is perfect. I’ve been a fan of stick foundations back to the Benefit Playstick days. I hope Milani starts a trend with foundation sticks as I’d love to see them back a come back!
Let’s review and swatch the new Milani Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Skin Tint! Jump ahead.
Milani Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Skin Tint are available twenty five shade range for $16.99 each for 0.28 oz. I do have an an issue with the near $17 price tag just because I’m loving (LOVVVVVVVVVVVVING) LYS BeautyTriple Fix Blurring and Hydrating Skin Tint Foundation Stick and it’s $25 for 0.25 oz. I do feel the LYS formula is a lot more creamier than the Milani version with a big more pigment. If I had to choose between $17 and spending a $8 dollars more for the LYS I would probably go with the LYS. I realize it’s smaller and a bit more money but I just like the formula a little bit more than Milani’s version. That being said, drugstore makeup is never something anyone pays full price for. Even now at ulta.com you can snag $5 off Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Skin Tint using code 393244 which does make it a much better deal than near $20. I’m becoming a little bit of a nitpick lately with the drugstore makeup prices but man, they seem to have jumped up a lot in a really short amount of time.
Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Skin Tint comes housed in a swivel up barrel which easily swivels down. Yes, that’s very important to mention because some products swivel up and don’t swivel down which can be irritating as hell. No issues with the packaging here. It goes up and down easily. Also, the barrel shade matches the foundation in side perfectly which can be helpful when selecting a shade. One thing I didn’t love was the small cap that this comes with which protects the top of the foundation. It’s a tiny plastic cap that many stick products come with. Typically, I do toss them out but in this case Milani says keep it and replace the cap which easy use. I guess this formula may dry out if you don’t. The problem I have with it would be it falls off when replace and ends up stuck in the barrel of the top or sometimes or sometimes it falls off and jiggles around and ends up slicing off bits of foundation. I did this with one of the two shades I purchased. The entire head of the foundation ended up sliced up as I replaced the small clear cap, put the outer cap on, and went to put the foundation away but the cap fell off inside and when I took it off the clear cap fell off, into the foundation, and sliced it up. Not cool. I think I may toss them out and keep my fingers crossed the foundation remains creamy.

Ok, enough of ranting let’s get to the good stuff. This is beautifully formulated. It is a soft matte finish but not a dry one. The texture of the foundation is soft, creamy, and easy to blend. It feels soft with a light silky feel on skin but still has a creamy, lightly moisturizing formula that allows easy blending with a brush or even fingers. It doesn’t adhere to drier areas and looks smooth and flawless on skin. The coverage can be used lightly or you can build it up for more coverage. It’s fairly pigmented so it should conceal darkness, dullness, and provide a bright, even finish. I personally have dull skin so I rely on foundation to brighten up my complexion, even my tone, and make me look more awake and this did the trick. I don’t have major problems likes redness or acne to conceal but I’d say the level on pigment on this should tackle such issues. I enjoyed the natural finish it provided as no matter how you provide it looks very skin-like and natural without appearing too made up. I like a more moisturizing formula as I have dry skin but I had no issues with the soft matte finish. It isn’t a flat matte nor a drying one or one that looks mask-like. It was breathable, lightweight, and didn’t bring attention to drier areas on my face. It looked smooth and flawless and wore for around six hours. It showed some signs of wear as I headed into hour seven and faded a good deal at hour eight. I didn’t expect it to even wear for six as stick foundations do tend to have a shorter wear in my experience but it did nicely and I didn’t set it with powder.
One of the biggest perks of this product is the shade range. It feels like a drugstore brand has finally got a handle on a solid range of colors. The colors and undertones seem quite accurate and I think people will be surprised how easily they’ll find a color match. I got six and seven. Six is a light, warm peach and Seven is Light Medium Neutral. I liked six better but seven was a good match as well for me. The peach undertone is always a hard one for me to find in foundations and I’ve found it’s more flattering on me than going with neutral which can sometimes be a bit too light. Six was a perfect light-medium with a hint of warmth due to the peach.
Milani Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Skin Tint is a love for me. I’m Muse Approving this one. If you love stick foundations but find the market a little lacking in them you’re going to adore this formula. It’s soft, creamy, lightweight, and it looks beautiful on skin. The price is a little high but coupons and sales always help!
