Sunscreen Insight

I'm looking to try a tinted sunscreen, but honestly don't know much about them? What are your thoughts on tinted Sunscreens? Are they better than the usual? What brands are best? Thanks in advance for all of your help with this! ❤

I wear a tinted sunscreen everyday! I need a mineral only sunscreen, but a lot of those leave a white cast, so the tint helps eliminate that. I don’t think the tint makes it better or worse than any other sunscreen, it’s just a personal preference really. I also like the tint because I don’t wear makeup, but sometimes want a little bit of coverage for redness or blemishes and the tinted sunscreen works out very well for me for that. The Australian Gold one is my favorite, it comes in 3 shades.

Definitely very similar to a BB cream! Light coverage, just kind of evens out your skin tone and helps cover redness and blemishes a little bit.

I like this tinted sunscreen. It has a peach tinge to it and brightens up my complexion. Korean cosmetics also make BB creams with SPF50.

I love tinted sunscreens, they usually blur skin, makes it look even and smoother. Tinted sunscreens have replaced my foundation and I could not be happier! My faves are Supergoop Mattescreen, Avene Mineral Tinted Most tinted sunscreens use mineral filters which can be drying (at least on my oily skin), I need to prep my skin, sometimes even use a heavy (yes! Shocking for oily skin to use this in the morning but yes) moisturizer that would work well with the sunscreen, one that would not pill, not make skin oilier, etc. The coverage is usually light, some even disappear on skin, some are more pigmented. Keep in mind that it’s a sunscreen so you need to apply the proper amount so the shade can get darker the more you pack it on (MDSolarSciences Mineral Tinted, Frezyderm Color Velvet).

I tried tinted sunscreen but I ended up switching back to regular one. It stained my shirt collar 😅

Oh wow! I didn't think about that. I would if you just used it on your face and then a regular sunscreen on your neck if that would make a difference or not?
