Hydrating — Enhances plumpness — Enhances firmness
A luxurious lightweight tinted moisturiser with SPF15 for broad-spectrum, physical UV protection. No.4+ is based on our best-selling No.4 Vanilla Silk Hydrating Lotion but has a hint of tint and natural broad-spectrum sun protection provided by non-nano zinc oxide. It effortlessly blends with your own natural skin tone for smooth, radiant skin and a sun-kissed glow.
This formula includes a cocktail of botanical actives including antioxidant-rich Hibiscus Sabdariffa and Australian natives Davidson Plum and Lemon Aspen which support the skin's natural elasticity.
Zinc oxide provides physical broad spectrum sun protection without the usual toxins found in chemical sunscreens! The lotion absorbs well and smoothly into the skin and does not have a thick, greasy texture. It has been created as the perfect daily moisturiser for incidental sun exposure (working, shopping, taking a short walk etc), but for prolonged sun exposure we recommend using our Basking Beauty Natural Sunscreen SPF50.
This product provides just a hint of tint to smooth and even your skin tone, it does not provide a lot of coverage. If you are wanting additional coverage we recommend using this as a primer before your makeup application.
Beauty Benefits
Silky smooth, radiant and firm skin with balanced skin tone and a natural sun-kissed glow.
Cocoa Butter, is the natural fat extracted from the Cacao Bean. Known as the “ultimate moisturiser”, it is rich in fatty acids to help improve skin moisture retention and elasticity. Bursting with B vitamins and vitamin C and E, Cocoa Butter deeply penetrates the skin to visibly reduce wrinkles and provide a protective barrier against environmental damage. The polyphenols found in Cocoa Butter also work to calm and soothe unhappy skin.
Australian Rosella Extract, is also known as the “botox” plant, thanks to its natural source of alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA’s) which helps to speed up cell turnover, increase moisture and flexibility and encourage fresh, younger looking skin.
Raspberry, contains a natural SPF and is loaded with the powerful anti-inflammatory resveratrol, which protects the skin against inflammation. The antioxidant function of these stem cells extends skin cell longevity by repairing DNA damage and preventing internal and external oxidation.
Lemon Aspen, often called Rainforest Lime is an Australian native containing flavone glycosides, strong antioxidants which help to combat the free radicals that damage the skin. They also help to strengthen skin capillaries and visibly enhance skin elasticity and firmness.
Application
Apply this luxurious lightweight creme to the face and decolletage every morning after applying No.3 Exotic Goddess Ageless Serum. Use a second application after the first has dried or use as a primer/base before applying foundation if you would like additional coverage. This lotion looks dark when you first pump it out of the bottle but it will adjust to approximately 80% of skin tones once blended into your skin.

We batch make all of our natural skincare and use pure Australian wildcrafted extracts that may differ in colour and texture based on season and region they are harvested from.
As a result, this product may vary in colour, texture and fragrance from batch to batch. This does not impact the efficacy of the product and each contains the same amount of active ingredients.
I have been wearing this for years and get compliments all the time about how flawless my “skin” is. My skin does not look great without this product. I am sensitive to every other makeup product I have tried. This one is a keeper - I’m lucky I found one more bottle of it in my cupboard. Please keep making it!
I love both the tinted and untinted moisturizers. Absorbs well into the skin.
My only complaint is that I can’t get all the contents out of the bottle and wish that the product was available in a jar so I can enjoy every last bit of moisturizer!
The perfect lotion for everyday. Efficiently hydrates and unifies the skin with a subtle tint. You barely notice it is there but you do notice you have a nicer skin. I love that no one can tell you have make-up on.
I love this formula so much, it protects and hydrates my skin while leaving a lovely glow
I love this tinted SPF moisturiser! I use this product every day. It feels nice and light to wear throughout the day (and I live in a tropical climate!) it is good under makeup. I also love that I have never had a problem with the tint coming off onto my clothes -big bonus! It’s a beautiful natural shade, not orange and it just blends into my own skin colour. I feel lightly protected when I’m driving or ducking into the shops etc. I can’t live without this one.
Can you mix Angel Drops with this . I am looking for a dewy finish. Also would this product be the closest to a foundation in your range?
The Luminous Angel Drops and the Snowflower Illuminating Face Oil both work really well to create a dewy glow. The Tinted Vanilla Silk lotion is the closest to foundation in our range. It suits all skin tones as adjusts naturally to your complexion and will also even out skin tone. If your skin is olive or dark the other product that this mixes well with is the Luminous Angel Highlighting Creme.
Does this clog pores because of the high coconut oil content?
Our products are formulated with specific carrier oils (Camellia Seed Oil is one of the main ones) which are designed to transport the coconut oil deep into the skin layers, ensuring that clogging of pores does not occur. Clogging occurs when coconut oil is used on its own or in products where there are no carrier oils and hence the oil remains on the skin surface leading to congestion. This is definitely not the case with our formulas.
How much zinc is in this moisturiser? and does it have nano particles?
10-12% zinc. We do not use nano particles.
What sun protection factor does this product provide?
This provides a sun protection factor of 15. We recommend using this for incidental sun exposure (eg going to the shops). If you are being exposed to direct sunshine, we recommend you use our Basking Beauty Sunscreen which provides SPF50 protection.
Hello! Is this enough spf for the Australian summer?
This tinted lotion contains an SPF of 15. We recommend using this tinted lotion for incidental sun exposure, eg when shopping, going to work etc.
When in direct sunlight for more than 10 minutes we recommend using our Basking Beauty SPF 50 sunscreen.
Hi! Can I check if the benefits of this are the same as that of the original No.4 hydrating lotion? Thanks!
The benefits are defintely the same. The only difference between this formula and the non-tinted lotion are that this formula contains the tint along with a higher natural sun protection factor due to the red raspberry seed oil and black raspberry seed in the formula (the non tinted lotion just contains black raspberry seed oil).
Hi, does this come in a lighter shade? Both videos you’ve posted show quite dark skin and light reviews aren’t good. It sounds so beautiful but I can’t seem to find a lighter option and thought I was perhaps just missing something?
We only have one shade. This can be mixed with the No.4 Vanilla Silk Hydrating lotion to lighten.
Does the coconut oil in this product cause irritation or breakouts?
Using coconut oil in our formulas should not cause any breakouts or skin reactions. This is due to the way we blend various oils in our formulas. For instance, the use of Camellia Seed Oil ensures that the coconut oil and other oils penetrate deeply into the skin and do not sit on the skin surface which is what can lead to breakouts.
How has this formula changed?
The updated formula has had a few tweaks:
Neutral flattering tone - Our upgraded lotion has a neutral-toned mocha tint more suited to both dark and light complexions. The tint adjusts to your natural skin tone once blended for a beautiful sunkissed glow.
Silky and smooth –The new formula has a silky texture for ease of application and more effective absorption to ensure the product blends seamlessly into the skin.
Is this fragrance free ?
Our fragrances come from essential oils.
