Our Favourite Tinted SPFs For An Everyday Dewy Glow

If there’s one thing we can’t leave the house without, it’s SPF. One of the few products that are universally agreed upon to help prevent a number of common skin concerns we all face later in life (we’re talking pigmentation, dark spots, fine lines and wrinkles), it really is a no brainer when it comes to an every day, must-have in your morning skincare routine. Better yet, a tinted SPF provides all the ease and convenience, offering both coverage and protection with a radiant glow to match.

To help choose the right one for you, we’ve narrowed down some of our favourites below.

best tinted SPF Naked Sundays

Naked Sundays SPF50+ Collagen Glow Priming Lotion

Australian brand, Nake Sundays has changed the game with their collagen-infused hydrating mineral SPF 50. While it’s a slightly thicker consistency than what we’re used to, upon application it provides all the coverage you need (without leaving a white cast) while simultaneously prepping the skin for that soft dewy glow we all love. Amazing for under makeup, it won’t leave your skin feeling congested at the end of the day which is what we absolutely love about it too!

La Roche-Posay Anthelios Tinted SPF 50

Another one of our favourites we recommend having in your handbag or in the console of your car, this one is especially suited for those who have sensitive skin and sometimes find they experience a stinging sensation around the eyes. With such a lightweight formula, it’s super easy to apply and feels like you’re not wearing anything at all. Pop on some mascara and you’re ready to take the day.

The Ordinary Serum Foundation

mixed with SPF

An inside beauty secret shared by one of our therapists at SELF, they recommend mixing your own formula foundation, like this one from the Ordinary, with your favourite SPF. Why? With the consistency of a serum, it’ll mix beautifully with your SPF and offer a really natural, hydrating glow, perfect for everyday wear.


Laura Mercier TInted Moisturiser Natural Skin Perfector SPF 30 

With its silky smooth formula, what’s not to love about the Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser? With beautiful sheer coverage, it not only protects your skin against the UV rays but locks in moisture for up to 24hours so your skin doesn’t feel patchy or dehydrated throughout the day. Perfect for when you’re on the go!

Beautiful Skin Superfluid SPF 50

This part sunscreen, part foundation from Rationale is by all means, definitely worth the investment. Offering that luminous coverage we all know and lust for, it’s consistency is much more ‘fluid’ than others, but this means it’s excellent for building up to a soft, dewy finish.
