The phrase “you are enough” really had its moment over the last couple of years, huh? It’s an important truth to remember, but anything seems trite when you see it on enough t-shirts.
The thing is… you really are enough! And I assume you want your makeup to be, too.
Available April 8, Jones Road’s latest launch is a lightweight tinted moisturizer with “just enough” coverage to warrant its ultra-cute (and not at all overused in this context) name. Keep reading for all the details on Just Enough Tinted Moisturizer—plus team Byrdie’s honest reviews.

The Inspiration
“On days when I’m running errands and don’t want a lot of makeup, this is my go-to to just make me look and feel better. It really is Just Enough,” explained brand founder Bobbi Brown.

The launch also coincides with the brand’s first-ever big lifestyle campaign (it’s helpful that Just Enough “personifies” the entire look they’re selling). The multi-media campaign features five personas—the Modern Mom, the It Girl, the Entrepreneur, the Confident Woman, and the Wellness Expert—all Jones Road girlies through and through.
The Formula
Working to improve hydration and protect the skin’s moisture barrier from water loss, Just Enough was crafted for minimal makeup days when you want your skin to look like your skin… with a little bit of blur and evening out. It’s available in 16 shades, all of which correspond to Jones Road’s What the Foundation lineup.

The brand recommends you apply the product directly to your face, avoiding the eyes and using either your fingers or Jones Road’s Skin Brush to blend it in. If you want extra coverage (Just Enough is just enough, but sometimes you want a little more), they recommend pairing it with The Face Pencil.
The Reviews

“As someone who only wears tinted moisturizers, I must say this is one of the best I’ve tried. It glides on my face like silk—my jaw actually dropped when applying. It’s almost as if the shade Cinnamon was made for me. It provides light coverage and looks and feels like my skin, only better. This will definitely be my new go-to for the office, dinner, and everywhere in between.”

“I typically reach for a tinted moisturizer or SPF in lieu of a traditional foundation. So I immediately knew there was a high chance I’d like this new launch from Jones Road. As the name alludes, this tinted moisturizer gives just enough coverage that you notice a difference post-application. I love the gorgeous creamy texture and wish it came as an un-tinted everyday moisturizer, too . It blends evenly across your skin and deposits a light veil of color (I wear Porcelain)—very natural but with a subtle glow. If you have any blemishes or imperfections, you’ll need to go back in with a concealer, but the Just Enough Tinted Moisturizer plays nicely as a base. I can easily see this formula being a star in my summer makeup routine because it feels weightless on the skin but still elevates my overall complexion.”

“I fall in love with almost every product Jones Road rolls out, and the new tinted moisturizer is no exception. It’s aptly named—it’s exactly “just enough” color, hydration, and dew factor to make my skin feel more fresh and even. The texture feels exactly like a moisturizer, so it’s easy to blend (I just used my fingers) and surprisingly effective at canceling out the redness around my eyes and nose (I wear shade Ivory). This is definitely a new routine staple as we head into summer.”
