Incorporate SPF Into Your Makeup Routine
Incorporate SPF Into Your Makeup Routine
By Olivia Blackwell
In every skincare routine, one crucial step should never be overlooked: wearing sunscreen daily. This simple yet powerful habit not only safeguards your skin from premature aging, including wrinkles and age spots, but also reduces the risk of skin cancer. As dermatologists consistently emphasize, incorporating sunscreen into your daily routine is a small yet significant investment in your long-term skin health.
With summer approaching, it is more important than ever to protect your skin from damaging UV rays. While applying sunscreen daily is an ideal place to start, sun protection products extend beyond just your standard facial sunscreen. UV-protective makeup products can have additional benefits like cancer and age preventing ingredients, all while adding a touch of glamor.
Sunscreen infused makeup has a wide span, including blushes, foundations, lip balms, and even eyeshadow. It is important to note, however, that these products should not be used in full substitution of applying regular sunscreen to the skin. Just like sunscreen, SPF makeup products are to be reapplied throughout the day for the most effective protection.
If you are in search of something with sheer coverage to even out your skin for everyday wear, Ilia’s Super Serum Skin Tint with SPF is perfect for adding some protection to your skin while achieving a glowy complexion. The formula includes ingredients like niacinamide, squalene, and hyaluronic acid, which help hydrate and minimize redness and fine lines.
For something with a little more shimmer, Supergoop’s Illuminating Cream Eyeshadow is suited for getting some pigment on your lids while adding sun protection.
Whether it is starting with a lightweight skin tint or playful eyeshadows and blushes, SPF makeup products are ideal for adding an extra layer of protection that your skin will later thank you for.
