Which ingredients should you look for in a tinted SPF for the face?

Today, the cosmetic market offers a wide range of tinted sunscreens, formulated according to the specific needs of each skin type.

The selected ingredients play an important role in the ability of tinted SPF to suit different skin types. 

Here are some key ingredients to look for to develop a skin care sunscreen for the face:

  • Mineral filters (e.g. zinc oxide) and/or organic : essential for protecting the skin against UVA and UVB rays (including visible light), these ingredients are safe and effective.
  • Emulsifiers and surfactants: some of them are of natural origin and have moisturizing properties for soft and smooth skin (e.g. beetroot sugar or aloe vera).
  • Antioxydants: some of them may be of natural or organic origin, helping to protect cells against damage caused by free radicals; free radicals are unstable molecules that can attack cells and their genetic material, leading to premature ageing.

In conclusion, a tinted sun cream specially designed for the face is made with ingredients that provide the skin with a high level of sun protection against the sun’s rays, while at the same time offering proven additional benefits such as moisturising, anti-ageing, anti-dark spot protection, etc. Like all cosmetic products, they are tested to ensure they do not cause irritation and have been approved by a toxicologist. Tinted SPF aims for a flawless complexion.
