There is no debate that sunscreen is a vital part of everybody’s skincare routine and there are an abundance of sunscreens that cater to different skin types.
But, if I’m being honest, I don’t have the habit to reapply it throughout the day (even though you should) only because I don’t want to pile it on top of my makeup.
Surprisingly, there already are a number of makeup products that already have sunscreen in it which is great! Stay young and protected with these 15 makeup products with SPF for your everyday natural, glowy look.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not meant to replace sunscreen entirely, but at least it helps to sneak some SPF into your makeup routine — think of it sort of as a 2-in-1! You’re getting the maximum sun protection that you need whilst still looking your best self.
1. La Roche-Posay UVIdea Tone Up Cream SPF 50
Primer should always be the first step in your makeup routine to ensure that it lasts all day. Since it’s such an important product, it’s only right to invest in a quality primer like La Roche-Posay UVIdea Tone Up Cream (S$41.90).
The lightweight, silky and moisturising formula doubles as a primer and sunscreen for a brighter tone and natural complexion. Infused with La Roche-Posay thermal water, it easily absorbs into the skin and reduces skin irritation for an airbrush look.
