Hi all 😀

Does anyone have a good recommendation for an spf for your face specifically?

Ideally SPF 50 and looks good under makeup.

I have seen one on the body shop but they are so expensive I didn't just want to purchase without recommendations.

Thanks!
 
The nuxe one. I got it free in the M&S beauty box but have brought it twice since. No cast and no shine.

I've heard good things about the la roche posay face spf whenever I've asked for recommendations, but I've just bought Lancaster invisible face mist- which is cooling, 50spf and can go on after make up and so far it seems pretty good! I don't think it's been sunny enough to really test but it doesn't ruin my make up.

La roche posay anthelios is great! Make up is fine to go on about 10 mins after ☺

I have started using this one and agree really good under makeup and foundation blends well over.

I have tried the body shop one, wouldn’t recommend if you have oily skin, very thick and made me look super shiny even with a oil control foundation and loads of powder!

I use this Nivea one and it’s fab! Dries nice and Matt, not sticky at all. View attachment 515503

I love the nivea matt one it’s a good base for make up and gives me a nice glow. I get it delivered with my Asda shop.

The recommendations above are great.

Also recommending Garnier Ambre Solaire Super UV Face Fluid SPF50 - really lightweight (on my oily skin) and the SPF I wear under make up.

It’s £12 from ASOS and other online retailers but always £7 from boots!

The La Roche Posay ones are good. Bit pricy but It’s the only spf that doesn’t make me break out or make my skin feel really heavy and greasy.

Not a fan of the bodyshop one, I made me break out and super oily.

Australian Gold Botanical Tinted face lotion - its mineral and SPF 50. Goes on very nicely.

I found the la Roche posay one I had broke me out 😣 strange because everyone else seems to love them so definitely worth a try!

I use tropic Sun day spf 50. Perfect under make up, smells lovely and doesn’t make me break out

I also can recommend this one. I also like Vichy Ideal Soleil Mattifying Face Dry Touch Sun Cream too.

I second this one! You can find it quite cheap on Amazon or in Savers/Superdrug. I’ve seen it in some supermarkets but comes up more expensive for some reason. I have oily skin and this cream sinks into my face and neck instantly, can’t smell it, isn’t greasy like most sun creams and can apply primer and makeup almost instantly after.
