UV Protect: The Best Sun Cushions to Apply (and Reapply) on Your Face
As the sun gets more intense by the day, one self-care you shouldn’t forget (on top of staying hydrated) is applying sun protection. UV rays are harmful to the skin and if you’re not careful, you might not just end up with a few burns and uneven skin. You could suffer from skin cancer, like Australian actor Hugh Jackman did.
If you want to protect your skin but don’t like the sticky feeling of applying multiple layers of makeup, you can simplify your routine with a sun cushion. Here’s where you can get them!
innisfree No-Sebum Sun Cushion
The No-Sebum Sun Cushion SPF50+ PA++++ offers UV protection and excellent coverage with a matte tone-up effect to smoothen the skin without feeling sticky. If you’re already a fan of innisfree’s No-Sebum Mineral Powder, this product is like its cushion sibling with an added milky bright sun shield. It’s noncomedogenic-tested, so it’s suitable even for those with acne-prone skin!
Get it for P1,200 at Lazada or their official website. Refills are also available via Shopee.
rom&nd Back Me Tone Up Sun Cushion
The Back Me Tone Up Sun Cushion SPF50+ PA++++ offers a natural bright tone-up effect without any white cast, so you don’t have to worry about your face looking whiter than your neck. Although it has a lotion-like application, it provides a matte finish without the oiliness and cakey texture after applying multiple layers. It’s a good choice for quick touch ups, too!
Get it for P990 at Shopee. You can also browse their Lazada for other cosmetic products.
The Face Shop Dr. Belmeur UV Derma Babymild Sun Cushion
The Dr. Belmeur UV Derma Babymild Sun Cushion is a gentle and mild cushion-type sun cream that provides SPF28 PA++ protection. While it has a lower SPF compared to others, it still does the job and offers more. It’s low irritant, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin. It’s also pediatrically tested, so it’s safe to use even by children three years old and above. You won’t get wrong with a sun product from one of South Korea’s top-selling cosmetic brands!
Get it for P1,495 at Lazada or Zalora. You can also visit their website for other sun care products.
Nature Republic Green Derma Mild Cica Big Sun Cushion
The Green Derma Mild Cica Big Sun Cushion offers a physical UV protection of SPF50+ PA++++ and has a lightweight texture when applied. It’s dermatologically tested and formulated with extracts from Centella Asiatica and other Cica ingredients, which help soothe irritated skin. Don’t be shocked once this cushion arrives at your doorstep, though, because it’s a bit bigger than others! But that’s a good thing considering its budget-friendly price.
Get it for P825 at Shopee or their official website.
DEAR DAHLIA Skin Paradise Tone-Up Sun Cushion
The Skin Paradise Tone-Up Sun Cushion is an SPF35 PA+++ physical sunscreen that’s vegan and cruelty-free. Its hydrating formula is a combination of plant-based natural ingredients and gentle mineral physical sunscreens, which help deflect harmful UV rays and brighten and even out the skin tone. It’s also infused with Dahlia Variabilis flower extract, providing anti-aging benefits with its antioxidant properties.
