Morphology

untinted = tinted (transparent) = un + tint + ed

The adjective is formed by productive prefixation (un-) on the participial adjective 'tinted', yielding the straightforward meaning 'not colored'.

Etymology

Untinted comes from un- 'not' and tint 'color', so it literally means 'not colored', as in clear glass or a moisturizer with no added color.
