Additional tips for choosing and using tinted moisturisers with SPF:

  • When choosing a tinted moisturiser with SPF, it’s important to consider your skin type, coverage needs, and desired finish.
  • It’s also important to make sure that the product is broad-spectrum and has an SPF of 30 or higher.
  • Look for a product that is oil-free and non-comedogenic if you have oily or acne-prone skin.
  • Choose a product that is fragrance-free if you have sensitive skin.
  • Test the product on a small area of your skin before applying it to your entire face.
  • Apply the tinted moisturizer to clean, dry skin.
  • Use a small amount of product and blend it evenly over your face.
  • Don’t forget to reapply the tinted moisturiser every two hours, or more often if you are sweating or swimming.
