To protect your skin from UV damage this summer, sunscreen makeup duos might serve you well. While you’re likely well aware that sunscreen daily is nonnegotiable, you might want to supplement your daily sunscreen with some makeup with SPF. These hybrid formulas not only shield your skin but also enhance its appearance – smoothing texture, evening tone and addressing specific concerns for a healthier, more radiant finish. Ahead, a curated edit of the best sunscreen makeup products worth adding to your routine
Charlotte Tilbury Invisible UV Flawless Poreless Primer SPF 50
Charlotte Tilbury’s invisible sunscreen-primer hybrid offers serious broad-spectrum protection with SPF 50 PA++++, while instantly blurring and smoothing pores with its soft-focus glow filter. The peach-tinted formula has been tested across skin tones to ensure it blends away to nothing but fresh-looking skin, while smoothing as a primer should and never pilling underneath your base. Plus it’s infused with skincare ingredients including Collalift, a breakthrough active that boosts elasticity, hyaluronic acid to keep skin hydrated and Charlotte’s Magic 8 blend of oils and actives including peptides, camellia oil and aloe vera to nourish.
Tom Ford Beauty Architecture Radiance Hydrating Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 50+
This medium-to-full coverage foundation from Tom Ford Beauty delivers a polished finish with a hint of luminosity – enough to make one appear well-rested and fresh without looking shiny. The serum-like texture blends effortlessly without settling into fine lines or clinging to dry patches, thanks to a powerful skincare-infused formula featuring hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, passionfruit oil, caffeine, jasmine and botanical oils including the rare Queen of the Night flower. It’s more than just a foundation – it’s a skincare-infused canvas that delivers moisture, SPF 50 and sophistication in one.
Nudestix Nudescreen Blush Tint SPF30
This Nudestix SPF 30 Blush Tint is easily one of the best in its category. In the shade Strawberry Sunset – a warm, rich coral red – just a light tap of pigment delivers the perfect dewy, flushed cheekbones of a sun-kissed goddess. The creamy formula blends effortlessly and doubles as a vibrant cream eyeshadow and lip tint for a monochromatic look, while adding extra sun protection to the delicate eye and lip areas.
Ultra Violette Sheen Screen™ SPF50 Lip Balm
A true multitasker, this Ultra Violette lip balm delivers a buildable tint, SPF protection and nourishing glossy balm all in one. With six versatile shades to choose from, it’s packed with vitamin E, cocoa butter and lanolin to leave lips soft, supple and deeply hydrated. At the same time, SPF 50 broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection keeps them safe from sun damage – making it the ultimate lip essential for everyday wear and summer days alike.
Supergoop! (Re)setting Refreshing Mist SPF 40
Supergoop! is a pioneer in innovative sun care, known for effective formulas that are easy to apply. The Refreshing Mist is exactly that: designed to top-up your suncare rather than be your only form of protection. It features an ultra-fine texture that sits beautifully on top of makeup, feels hydrating and, most importantly, provides high UVA SPF 40 shielding. Finished with a light, herbaceous aroma of rosemary and mint, it makes reapplying sunscreen feel like a quick, pleasant ritual rather than a chore.
