Sunproof Glam: Integrate SPF into Your Daily Makeup

Sunproof Glam: Integrate SPF into Your Daily Makeup

Protecting your skin from harmful sun rays is crucial, even on cooler days. Integrating SPF products into your daily makeup is a great way to seamlessly incorporate sun protection into your routine. Using a moisturiser, primer, mist, tint and foundation with SPF can help you achieve a sun-protected, glamorous look without compromising your skin’s health. 

The Importance of SPF in Your Makeup Routine

Sunscreen is a non-negotiable step in any skincare routine, and integrating a tinted sunscreen with SPF into your makeup is an easy way to ensure you're protected throughout the day. Not only does SPF shield your skin from harmful UVA & UVB rays, but it also helps prevent premature ageing, dark spots, and other sun-related damage. At the Beauty Crop, we can also help you find the best SPF for under makeup if you prefer separate sun protection products. 

SPF Primers: The Perfect Base to Protect & Perfect 

SPF primers are a great way to give your complexion a smooth base for makeup application, whilst offering an extra layer of sun protection. A multitasking product like the Vitamin Babe Enriched Glow SPF45 Primer helps ensure your makeup stays in place while shielding your skin from the sun. 

Benefits of Using SPF Primers

By incorporating an SPF primer into your routine, you can simplify your skincare and makeup steps while ensuring your skin is protected from UV exposure. Look for vitamin-enriched primers that offer broad-spectrum protection and a lightweight, non-greasy formula that won't feel heavy on the skin.

Dewy Bounce Skin Tints: Achieve a Radiant, Sun-Protected Look

Our Dewy Bounce SPF30 skin tints are a great option for those looking to achieve a natural, radiant finish while incorporating SPF into their makeup routine. These tinted SPF products provide sheer, but buildable coverage, hydration, and sun protection, making them perfect for those who prefer a more effortless, glowy look. 

How to Apply Dewy Bounce Skin Tints

To achieve a luminous complexion with sun protection, simply apply a few pumps of the Dewy Bounce tinted SPF all over your face using your finger, or the Dewy Bounce makeup sponge. Blend the product into your skin for a seamless finish. Wear it on its own for a natural tint, or finish your routine as normal with blush, bronzer, powder & mist. 

How much SPF do you need to apply

When it comes to SPF, the general recommendation is to use a product with at least SPF30 for daily protection. However, if you're spending an extended period in the sun, consider using a higher SPF in your routine and ensure you always reapply every 2 hours to keep your skin shielded. 

SPF45 Primer: Apply 2-3 finger lengths of the SPF primer (to give adequate sun protection) onto clean hands and blend into your skin. Don’t forget your neck and décolletage, too. 

SPF30 Skin Tint: After cleansing & priming/moisturising, apply a few pumps of your tinted SPF onto clean fingers. Gently blend into your skin, add more if desired, and build coverage. You can also use a Dewy Bounce sponge if you prefer.

SPF30 Mist: Use the Vitamin Babe SPF30 mist as the final steps in your makeup routine, and also for top-ups throughout the day - mist liberally until your face and neck are glistening with the mist and allow for the formula to dry. It is recommended to reapply SPF every 2 hours throughout the day. The best thing about our SPF mist is that it works with your makeup and not against it, and it’s also safe for acne-prone skin. 

Best SPF Mists for On-the-Go Protection

An SPF mist offers a convenient way to reapply sun protection throughout the day, especially when wearing makeup. A product like the Vitamin Babe SPF30 setting mist is a lightweight sun protection face spray that can be used over your makeup to set & refresh your look while boosting your skin's defences against UV exposure. Even on no-makeup days, this is a must-have!

Tip: the Vitamin Babe SPF Mist works perfectly paired with the Vitamin Babe SPF45 Glow Primer.

Choosing the Right Tinted SPF for Your Skin Type

Selecting the right skin tint with SPF for your skin type is crucial to achieving a flawless, sun-protected complexion. Whether you have oily, dry, or combination skin, there's an SPF skin tint that can cater to your specific needs and preferences. The Dewy Bounce Skin Tint with SPF has been dermatologically tested for sensitive skin and is formulated with 82% natural origin ingredients, including cutting-edge resins that ensure long-lasting results even on oily and acne-prone skin.

Remember, when it comes to sun protection, it's better to be safe than sorry. So, don't forget to incorporate SPF into your makeup routine for a sunproof glam look all year round.
