FAQs

What is tinted mineral sunscreen?

Tinted mineral sunscreen is a type of physical sunscreen that contains mineral filters, typically zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, blended with pigments to match skin tones. Unlike traditional sunscreens that may leave a white cast, tinted versions seamlessly integrate with your skin colour, offering a natural, barely-there look while providing broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays. Ideal for daily use, these sunscreens also help to lighten out the skin tone and reduce the appearance of blemishes.

What does tinted sunscreen do?

Tinted sunscreen does more than just protect your skin from sun damage. It offers a dual function by combining the protective benefits of mineral sunscreen with the aesthetic appeal of a light foundation. The tint in the sunscreen helps conceal imperfections, such as redness, uneven skin tone or minor blemishes, providing a smooth, even complexion. Additionally, it can serve as a primer under makeup or a stand-alone skin enhancer for a natural, healthy glow.

Can I mix mineral sunscreen with moisturiser?

While it might be tempting to mix mineral sunscreen with moisturiser for ease of application, it is not recommended. Doing so can dilute the sunscreen, compromising its efficacy and reducing protection against UV rays. For optimal sun protection, apply your moisturiser first and allow it to absorb fully into the skin. Follow up with a generous layer of mineral sunscreen to ensure complete coverage and maximum defence against solar damage and oxidative stress.

Can you layer different sunscreens?

Layering different sunscreens is generally considered safe and can sometimes enhance sun protection, especially if the products have other active ingredients offering broad-spectrum coverage. However, it's essential to let each layer dry before applying the next to prevent dilution and ensure each formula works effectively. Remember, the key is to achieve sufficient total SPF coverage and protect all exposed skin.

Is tinted sunscreen better than normal sunscreen?

The choice between tinted and normal sunscreen often comes down to personal preference and specific skin needs. Tinted sunscreen provides the added benefit of skin tone evening and minor imperfection concealing, making it a preferred option for those looking for a cosmetic advantage. However, tinted and non-tinted mineral sunscreens effectively protect against UVA and UVB rays. The most crucial factor is choosing a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an adequate SPF rating and applying it correctly and regularly.

Does sunscreen protect against blue light?

Certain ingredients in sunscreens, particularly those in mineral sunscreens containing zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, can offer some protection against blue light (also known as high-energy visible light). This light, emitted by the sun and digital screens, contributes to skin ageing and possibly pigmentation. While most sunscreens primarily guard against UV radiation, a tinted mineral sunscreen can help mitigate blue light's effects on the skin, thanks to the physical barrier it creates and the pigments used for tinting.
