6 Splendid Makeup Products With Sun Protection

Summer has always been notorious for taking a toll on your skin. From darkening your complexion and causing premature signs of ageing to increase the likelihood of skin cancer, there are multiple adverse repercussions of prolonged exposure to the scorching summer sun. No wonder, sunscreens are considered to be completely indispensable, not just during summer but at every moment your skin comes into contact with the sun's harsh UV rays. 

However, ask anybody who puts on a full face of makeup every morning, the step of applying sunscreen complicates our beauty regimes further. Do we apply a layer before getting to the base makeup? Or do we smear some as a finishing layer to our makeup look? And while we're at it, what do we do about that greasy white sheen left behind? To simplify such questions about using makeup and sunscreen simultaneously, we decided to eliminate the need for 2 separate products altogether. Instead, here's a curated listicle featuring the 7 best makeup products with SPF that'll take care of both your beauty and sun safety needs!

1. Revlon Photo Ready 2-Way Powder Foundation SPF 20 

This 2-in-1 foundation slash compact product is extremely useful and the additional quality of SPF 20 PA+++ makes it a must-have for your beauty counter. The pressed powder can be used for various purposes, both wet and dry, and it comes infused with a photochromic pigment that reflects and diffuses light, thereby making your skin look brighter, clearer and more radiant. The product delivers medium to full coverage, which looks natural and leaves a matte finish.
