Features of foundation with SPF 50

Light-eyed blondes - representatives of I – III phototypes should first of all think about buying a foundation with an option of sun protection. If you still do not know which phototype you belong to, take our test, and after that choose cosmetics.

The main feature of foundations with SPF is that the actual alignment of the skin tone is a kind of bonus, in addition to sun protection, and often to other functions:

    fight against imperfections;

    prevention of pigmentation;

    moisturizing.

Tone cream with a solar filter, it tends to have a lighter, more fluid texture. And as a care product, it does not require the application of a primer.

In short, this is a remedy for the summer, when a powerful sun protection factor... In addition, the usual foundation may be too thick for the hot season, when the skin tends to sweat and shine.

To summarize, a foundation with SPF 50 is needed in the following cases:

    with increased photosensitivity (typical for fair-skinned people);

    to protect against hyperpigmentation;

    as functional cosmetics (sun protection and prevention of wrinkles caused by photoaging).

Sun filters

Foundation can contain both physical and chemical filters. Biotherm medical expert Elena Alekseeva explains: “Physical filters do not penetrate the skin, but work on the surface, like tinting pigments. These include zinc oxide (Zinc Oxyde) and titanium dioxide (Titanium Dioxyde). In the list of chemical filters you will find avobenzone, oxybenzone, octyl salicylate and others. "

Antioxidants

Humidifiers

Combining moisturizing ingredients with sunscreens makes perfect sense. Under the influence of UV rays, the skin loses moisture, which weakens the protective hydrolipid gown.

City or beach

“Toning agents with SPF are suitable for the city and for recreation at sea. But I'm not sure that someone would want to do makeup before going to the beach, ”notes expert Elena Alekseeva.

Update

Experts have determined that after an average of 2 hours, the sun protection needs to be reapplied. This means that it needs to be renewed, regardless of the presence of toning pigments, if you are outdoors. Follow the manufacturer's directions.

Why do you need SPF in foundation

If we are talking about foundation, then we are hardly going to the beach. Nevertheless, it is important to remember about cosmetics with SPF not only on vacation.

“If there is no sun in the sky, this does not mean that there are no UV rays in the atmosphere. Even dense clouds block 10% of the rays, the remaining 90% continue to affect the skin. At the same time, clouds and even rain clouds are not an obstacle for UVA rays, which are most dangerous to health (like glass). Therefore, in autumn and winter, it is also worth using Sanskrin. You can only reduce the factor: if in summer a city in central Russia needs SPF 30, then 15-20 will be enough in autumn. In northern latitudes, it is permissible all year round use SPF 20. If you have a tendency to pigmentation, many moles or very light skin, you need SPF 50+ regardless of the season. "

SPF day care - whether it be a moisturizer, BB or foundation, is not just a summer choice if:

  1. 1

    you have a tendency to redness, rosacea, hyperpigmentation;

  2. 2

    you use night remedies with fruit acids, vitamin C high concentration, retinol and other components that increase skin photosensitivity.

What sun filters to look for in foundation

There are two types of filters.

  1. 1

    Physical or mineral (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) are mineral powder whose particles reflect sunlight.

  2. 2

    Chemical are organic compounds that react to ultraviolet light and trigger a reaction, as a result of which harmful UV radiation is converted into harmless heat radiation. An example of such filters is Mexoryl XL, SX.

In foundations, it is easy to combine both forms of sun protection: mineral pigments can also delay solar radiation, but you should not rely only on their protection. A combination of physical and chemical filters is the best option.

Although not all that simple.

Features of using foundation with SPF

Let's be honest: the sun protection factor in foundations is necessary, but it may not be sufficient, no matter how high the indicator on the package may be.


Sunscreen it takes a lot. On the face - about a teaspoon. There are several dining rooms on the body. © iStock

    The chemical filter needs to be renewed every 2-3 hours. This is the period of its decay under the influence of ultraviolet radiation.

    In a period of high solar activity, to fully protect the skin on the face, you need to apply about a third of a teaspoon of Sanskrin - a few drops of a foundation with SPF is definitely not enough.

Action: Before going outside, apply sunscreen spray over makeup.


The sunscreen spray is very useful both on vacation and in the city. © iStock

    SPF means the degree of protection against UVB rays.

    Letters UVA in a circle - protection against UV-A rays. They do not cause burns, but are more hazardous to health and provoke photoaging.

    PPD- UV protection type A.

    PA +++(number of pluses varies) shows the ratio of UVB to UVA. The product has a wide range of protection.

Price: 4 420 rubles.

The choice of Natalia Vlasova

BB cream Сreme Nude SPF-20 Erborian

The choice of Sergei Naumov

In the composition - algae Mediterranean and organic moisturizers that smooth the skin and give it well-groomed appearance all day.

A product with SPF 30 protection has helped me out more than once when I underestimated the danger of the Moscow sun. True, the face stood out strongly against the background of the burnt parts of the body, but that's another story.

Price: 3 099 rub.

Elena Motinova's choice

Foundation with lifting effect Perfectionist, Estée Lauder

Assistant for aging skin... The Perfectionist truly fills in wrinkles with their texture and reduces their appearance.

Price: 6 792 rub.

Editor-in-chief Karina Andreeva's choice

Cushion Derma-Cushion, Gray Beige, Dr. Jart +


One of my favorite BB creams long time was BeautyBalm Dr. Jart +. It seems that now I have found an alternative to him. When you use the product, there is a feeling that you did not just apply a foundation, but as if it were a good moisturizer at one time. At the same time, the coating turns out to be weightless (I used the sponge pad that comes with the kit), and the skin is radiant (a highlighter in the form of a cross is hidden in the heart of the cushion). If you mix both shades, you get fashion effect gym skin (as a person who loves sports, to be honest - the result is indistinguishable: as if the truth just got out of cardio). For a denser and matte finish apply only the beige part of the cushion - the product masks skin imperfections well and even relieves irritation. The composition is excellent: low molecular weight hyaluronic acid and marine plankton extract for deep moisturizing, calamine (a compound of zinc oxide and iron oxide) to relieve redness, Moringa butter oil to protect against exposure negative factors environment... SPF 50 - as a wonderful bonus (not everyone can take foundation with them on vacation, but it will be very useful at sea in the summer).

Price: 4 715 rub.

Egor Kartashov's choice

Cushion Miracle Cushion SPF 23, Lancôme


Perfectly moisturizes and refreshes the skin, gives it radiance and protects from the sun (there is an SPF filter 23). The make-up is obtained without the mask effect.
The porous pad is impregnated tonal fluid which resembles water in texture. I especially recommend it to fans of BB and CC creams.

If the client asks to choose the tone for home use then I always advise it.

Price: 3 100 rubles.

The choice of Maria Viskunova

Foundation Naked Skin One & Done, Urban Decay

A versatile summer formula - light moisturizing tone plus concealer to mask imperfections, on top - transparent powder... If the skin is good, you can do with one thing.

Naked Skin One & Done is the lightest moisturizing creamy tone that covers minor nuances. It is lightweight and invisible on the skin, at the same time it stays firm all day and protects from the sun's rays, having an SPF-20 formula in its composition. Leaves a natural finish and slightly mattes. Suitable for normal to combination skin.

Price: 1 199 rub.

Olga Romanova's choice

CC-Cream Embryolisse Soin Correcteur De Teint

The beloved Embryolisse CC Cream is a super treat! It cares for and covers minor imperfections, creating the effect of well-aligned skin. But at the same time, you will not notice a single trace of foundation - the coating looks flawlessly natural. This is a remedy for those girls who prefer natural makeup want to achieve perfect color skin, but do not like dense textures. The product includes a protective formula SPF-20

Price: 2 330 rub.

Cushion YSL Le Cushion Encre de Peau


It is also very delicate and light in texture, evens out the skin tone qualitatively, but is completely invisible. I equate it with the Embryolisse product - I just alternate the two depending on my mood. I would not call the cushion format professional, but for home use it is very convenient, so I recommend it to everyone. The product has SPF 10 protection.

Little hack: I use the BeautyBlender sponge with the cushion, not the pillow that comes with the kit. It is this sponge that allows you to distribute the product on the skin as thin as possible and blend well.

Price: 1967 rub.

1. BB- Vichy cream Normaderm

Just great product! It has a very light texture and fits well. It is simply applied, does not instantly freeze into the mask, rather, this cream looks more like a day moisturizer. Of course, it will not mask noticeable imperfections, because it lays down in a very thin layer. But on the other hand, it creates such an effect that the skin itself becomes even and naturally radiant.

A pleasant aroma, like all Givenchy products. Creates the appearance of hydrated and well-groomed skin, but does not completely hide all the imperfections of the skin - that's why it is a balm. The shade got darker than necessary, but it's okay, for a while after the vacation - it's the most!

11. Light tonal NARS velvety effect product

Tightens the skin well and works in problem areas very effective. Adjusts to skin tone while maintaining your natural glow.

14. BB cream SPF 30, tone 2 nature, Essence

In the summer, a high protection factor of 30 is a great bonus, since there are quite a few “happy” owners of very fair skin in Russia. The first effect after the cream was squeezed onto the hand was not very happy. At first glance, the texture seemed dense, but the product is well and evenly distributed on the skin, it is quickly absorbed. For a natural tone, this BB is too dark, but when shading it adjusts well to the color of the skin, it masked small redness and unevenness perfectly. There is no obvious border between "our" and "tinted" skin. There are no fragrances in this "bibishka" (but this is a plus for girls with sensitive skin), but at the same time it has some kind of specific sourish aroma (with an expiration date everything was in order).

15. Toning fluid " Perfect skin»SPF 20 Caudalie

With a very pleasant aroma and light texture. Removes redness, visually conceals pores and improves skin tone. Fits like a second skin. Does not leave grease, the skin becomes soft and tender with it.

16. Erborian BB cream

Possesses a light pleasant aroma, from this the process of applying the BB turns into a real beauty mystery. It is perfectly distributed, eliminates imperfections and holds up perfectly. Works flawlessly in any weather, leaves no marks on white collars and miraculously refreshes the complexion.

17. La Roche-Posay BB cream

A good product, moisturizes, makes the skin soft and silky. The texture of the cream is very light, well applied and distributed. Just one minute is enough - and the skin of the face in perfect condition... The masking ability is rather weak, but the BB is not intended to mask the skin. He has other tasks. Bottom line: skin color is natural and radiant, minor imperfections are hidden, significant ones have become less noticeable.

18. Stellary CC Cream

Cream with a pronounced odor, quite oily in texture, but evenly distributed on the skin. It masks well enough, but it feels like the skin is in the "bunker", practically does not breathe. In general, this is a good matting agent, but it still dried the skin. Another disadvantage of this product is its packaging. A tube with an inconvenient dispenser, you can't wait for cream from it. I had to remove the lid and squeeze it onto the sponge.

19. CC-cream "Black Pearl"

It has an excellent matte layer, suitable for oily skin. Lies down evenly, well masks bruises around the eyes. Easily washed off with water. After removal, the skin looks rejuvenated and well-groomed.

20. La Roche-Posay CC-cream

The consistency is not liquid, closer to thick. Together with a convenient dispenser, this product is very economical in terms of consumption. The aroma is pleasant, floral. It moisturizes the skin well, you don't even need to apply a moisturizer, you can directly on the skin (manufacturers advise doing this). The only negative is that it poorly masks irregularities, but at the same time removes redness well and creates a well-groomed skin beautiful tone... It's nice that the product contains SPF protection 30, so you don't have to worry about age spots with it.

21. Smashbox CC Cream

Tone cream Smashbox behaves "decently", it is quite easy to apply, but you need to make sure that there are no forgotten traces out of sight, as it dries quickly. Moisturizes well. The only one important nuance, which is worth knowing - this is a light shade of tan (if you suddenly do not guess with a shade and take a tone darker), so make sure that there is no ugly border on the neck. Another plus is that it smells good.

22. Ton Mattin Vivienne Sabo foundation

Liquid product, easy and pleasant to apply. The smell is harsh, chemical. Slightly sticky in texture, but dries quickly and adheres well. Improves skin tone, removes pallor, does not lie down with a mask, pores perfectly levels, they become visible only if you look very closely. Perfectly mattifies. Excellent value for money and quality.

23. Stellary Foundation

Its texture is dense, but at the same time cool. Lays down evenly, perfectly masks imperfections, redness and small pimples... He holds on firmly - in one day he survived a date, a meeting, and a meeting with his friends. There is only one minus - this foundation does not like heat, but in hot weather it is better not to use a dense tone (this is not very good for pores).

24. Foundation Tint Du Soleil SPF 30 Sunforgettable

A cool product for those who need results here and now, plus for the whole day. Lies flat, quickly adjusts to the skin and evens out minor imperfections. It literally can be used on a raid when you are in a hurry somewhere, and there is absolutely no time to create beauty.

25. CC cream SPF 30, tone 2 nature, Essence

Has a fairly dense texture, while it is applied and distributed on the skin as well as its lighter counterpart BB. Of the advantages, I would like to highlight its unsurpassed disguise. It perfectly conceals skin imperfections, does not require additional assistance in the form of concealers and powder. But, there is also a minus - it gives a rather dense coverage and is "naughty", does not really adapt to the color of the skin, remains noticeable on the face. But, nevertheless, the effect of the mask, as from some tonal means, was not noticed behind it.

26. Foundation Extreme SPF 30 Oriflame

A light, pleasant cream with a pleasant flower scent... Convenient tube small size... The texture is light, easy to apply. The skin underneath breathes. Suitable for dry skin as it moisturizes very well. Does not stain clothes, can be applied by hand. Despite the lightness, it mattifies the skin well. Leaves no oily sheen. The skin looks natural without any redness or unevenness.

27. Burberry Foundation

He has a very beautiful bottle, which is pleasant and comfortable to hold in your hands. The lid closes tightly, which means that the cream will never stain the cosmetic bag. It is squeezed out just as conveniently, dosed, which allows you to use the product to the very last drop. The tone is well applied and blends easily over the face. Girls with very fair skin should choose the most light shades... If you haven't guessed with the tone, it can be used as a contouring agent. During the day, the cream does not roll, but holds well. Does not have a pronounced odor.
