It is a dilemma that never ceases to come back as soon as the temperatures climb: how to protect your face UVs without ruining this complexion that we patiently worked in front of the mirror? Each year, it’s the same scenario. We arm with a luminous foundation, we fix everything with an invisible powder … And at noon, the dilemma strikes: should we really draw the tube of sunscreen to rebuild your face at the risk of doing everything?
How a solar faces runs, and why it changes everything
Unlike conventional sprays or thick creams, the solar faces faces was thought of to integrate into a makeup routine already in place. Ultra-fine, often formulated to be non-comedogenic, it applies by simple remote vaporization, without contact with the fingers. This gesture thus avoids moving foundation, concealer or blush-while offering a homogeneous layer of SPF, with no fat effect or film effect.
Some mists also act as makeup fixersand the most recent versions rely on mattifying or moisturizing ingredientsfilling the double need for protection and comfort. Another advantage: their nomadic format. A small sliding bomb in the handbag, and this is the possibility of spraying on the terrace, in the car or even between two meetings, without a necessary mirror or retouching.
If they are still absent from certain routines, it is also because they suffer from a vagueness on their perceived efficiency. However, provided you are generously applied (and regularly), the faces sunscreen display a SPF index equivalent to that of a classic cream. Just respect the right gesture: several sprays about fifteen centimeters from the face, closed eyes, and do not wipe afterwards.
What reflexes to adopt to no longer choose between makeup and sun protection?
Adopting a solar face mist does not mean abandoning your usual morning cream. On the contrary, mist is a reapplication solutionnot a basic product. So we start with a classic layer of SPF before makeup, then we draw the mist throughout the day. This duo ensures continuous protection, without sacrificing the shine of the complexion.
Among the most reliable options adapted to makeup, three solar mists stand out ::
La Roche-Posay Anthelios Invisible Brume SPF 50+ : an ultra-fine mist and without fatty finish, perfect for sensitive skin.
Vichy Capital Sun Invisible Hydrating Murd SPF 50 : invisible sun protection that hydrates and refreshes instantly.
Coola makeup Setting Spray SPF 30 : The 2-in-1 organic which fixes makeup while protecting the skin from the sun.
Apply your solar mist without misstep
- Choose a mist in the minimum SPF 30, or even 50 for clear or sensitive skin.
- Check the UVB/UVA mention for wide spectrum protection.
- Avoid too scented or alcohol -based formulations if the skin is reactive.
- Apply generously and repeat the application every two hours, especially outdoors.
Discreet but formidably practical, the solar mist infiltrates where the creams fail: between two meetings, on a crowded terrace or in the heart of a hot afternoon. A simple gesture, a few blinds blind, and makeup remains intact – the skin, protected. With that in your bag, no more excuse to zap the reapplication.
