FAQ

Does SPF go under or over makeup?

SPF is the final skincare step before makeup. During the day you can top up with powder SPF or reapply where possible.

Why does my SPF pill?

Usually because of too many layers, silicone combinations or applying makeup too quickly. Simplify the routine and give layers time.

Is tinted SPF enough?

If you apply enough, tinted SPF can protect and even the complexion. Too little product means less protection.
