Daily Defence with a Hint of Colour
A tinted sunscreen gives you the best of both worlds: everyday sun protection and a natural, even-looking complexion in one step. These lightweight, easy-to-wear formulas help blur uneven tone, add a soft wash of colour, and eliminate the white cast often associated with traditional SPF. Perfect for minimal makeup days or a streamlined routine, a tinted SPF creates a healthy-looking glow while shielding your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays.
You’ll find sheer, medium, and buildable options across a range of skin types and finishes. La Roche-Posay offers hydrating, high-protection tints ideal for sensitive or reactive skin. Fans of a dewy, skincare-first finish often turn to Drunk Elephant, whose ingredient-led formulas sit comfortably under makeup or worn alone. If you prefer mineral protection, bareMinerals creates complexion-enhancing tints with broad-spectrum coverage. For everyday, invisible application, Supergoop! remains a favourite for wearable, breathable textures.
A tinted sunscreen can replace both your moisturiser and your traditional base on days when you want quick, effortless coverage. Many formulas contain skin-supporting ingredients such as antioxidants, hydrators, and soothing complexes to help brighten, calm, and soften the skin over time. Apply generously after cleansing, blend outward for your desired level of coverage, and reapply throughout the day for continued protection.
Explore our full range of tinted SPF to find a shade, texture, and finish that fits seamlessly into your routine.
Does tinted sunscreen provide the same level of protection as regular SPF?
Yes! Tinted SPF offers the same UV protection as its untinted version, as long as it has a labelled SPF rating and you apply the recommended amount (two finger lengths).
Can tinted SPF replace my foundation?
Many people use tinted sunscreen as a light-coverage base. It evens tone and softens imperfections, making it perfect for “no-makeup” makeup days.
Is tinted sunscreen suitable for oily or blemish-prone skin?
Absolutely. Many formulations are non-comedogenic, mattifying, or oil-free. Look for mineral or gel-textured tints if you prefer a lighter, shine-controlling finish.
