Our Top Picks for a Full SPF Face



It’s increasingly crucial to make sure we protect our skin. Whilst tans are lovely, it’s still smart to bring out the sunscreen, if only to keep your skin supple and wrinkle free. Here is a list of the key components to your usual base makeup; they’re pretty, lightweight, and are all high in SPF. Whether you’re looking for a powder or setting spray, we’ve selected the best of them.




 

NARS: Smooth & Protect Primer SPF50 (£27, johnlewis.com)

This is a fantastic primer to prolong the wear of a makeup look, whilst perfectly blurring pores and imperfections; and it contains a seriously high factor of sun protection. This will be invaluable over summer: protecting your makeup and your skin.

 

 

Bobbi Brown: BB Cream SPF35 (£29.50, bobbibrown.com)

This is a BB cream that multitasks. Containing light-reflective pearls, it brightens skin and hydrates, while using caffeine and botanical extracts, to minimise redness and leave you glowing.
