Tinted SPF = My Holy-Grail Beauty Product

Legit every dermatologist I’ve ever met with has told me to use this sheer tinted sunscreen from EltaMD. It protects skin from UVA and UVB rays, feels ultra lightweight, and is infused with niacinamide to help minimize breakouts, redness, and acne scars.

This three-in-one tinted sunscreen acts like a moisturizer, SPF, and skin tint in one. In the morning, apply a few pumps to your clean dry skin, blend it in using your fingers, and you’re done! You can also layer it over regular face moisturizer for an extra dewy look too.

Supergoop makes a ton of excellent sunscreens, but this all-mineral tinted version is hands-down my fave. The sheer tint works with all skin tones, and the fluffy, mousse-like texture is easy to blend and leaves skin with a soft, matte finish so you don’t look overly shiny.

This ultra-creamy tinted sunscreen is water resistant for up to 80 minutes, so it’s perf for beach and pool days. You’ll still need to reapply, but it’s definitely the best option is you’re looking to to minimize sunburn and sun damage while swimming and sweating this summer.

Drunk Elephant’s OG sunscreen has been a regular in my routine for years, and this sheer tinted version is just as good. The clean, plant-based formula uses 20 percent zinc oxide SPF to shield skin from UVA and UVB rays, plus sunflower and raspberry seeds extracts to protect from environmental damage.

Even though it’s made with mineral blockers like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, this tinted sunscreen doesn’t leave behind a weird chalky cast, so it’s totally cool to use on all skin tones. It’s also made with all-natural ingredients, like coconut oil and shea butter.

This tinted sunscreen is ideal for anyone who tends to avoid SPF because they hate how it feels. The gel-cream texture is ultra-lightweight, sinks in fast, is non-greasy, and has a buildable tint that helps hide zits and dark spots without feeling heavy or “makeup-y.”

I’m obsessed with this ultra-sheer tinted sunscreen for my no-makeup makeup days. The SPF 50 formula comes in two light-reflecting shades—glow and bronze—to give your skin an ethereal, just-napped-on-the-beach look. Plus, it helps blur discoloration, soothe inflammation, and protect skin from the damaging effects of blue light (ahem, your phone).

This tinted sunscreen feels just like a foundation, making it the perfect choice for anyone who prefers more coverage. It instantly covers redness, melasma, and breakouts (without settling into fine lines or pores), while protecting skin with a mineral-based SPF 50.
