The Best Facial Sunscreens at MECCA

A mineral sunscreen uses naturally derived minerals like zinc oxide to physically reflect UV rays rather than absorbing them. Because these formulas sit on top of the skin, they’re incredible for those with sensitive or easily irritated skin. We love Emma Lewisham’s Sunceutical SPF 50 Mineral Face Crème, which blends zinc oxide with blue light protection and antioxidants and hydrating ingredients that make it feel delightfully light. Go-To’s zinc oxide formula, Nifty Fifty Mineral, also includes a variety of antioxidants to improve skin tone, texture and hydration while protecting it.

When glow is not the go – and a sleek, matte finish is all you want in an SPF (and makeup base), MECCA MAX Screen Saver SPF30 Broad Spectrum Facial Sunscreen is a true winner. Suitable for all skin types – even the sensitive, oily, blemish-prone types – this fragrance-free cream is infused with aloe vera, goji berry extract, vitamin E and chamomile to keep your skin cool and calm when the weather heats up. And you can bet it looks phenomenal under any makeup look (it was made by the makeup-obsessives at MECCA MAX, after all!).

Too oily, too sticky, too shiny, no more! MECCA COSMETICA’s To Save Face SPF50+ Matte Sun Serum will render all your excuses for not wearing sunscreen obsolete with ability to control shine and reduce the appearance of pores all while offering broad-spectrum SPF protection

 

If dry, dehydrated skin is your key concern, you’ll be notably impressed by a generous layer of Go-To's Nifty Fifty Hydrating Sunscreen. As well as its primary purpose of protecting your skin from UVA and UVB rays (and that it does, with next-gen SPF filters Tinosorb® S, Uvinul® A Plus, Uvinul® T150 and Tinosorb® A2B), this SPF50 – dreamt up by Zoë Foster Blake – is packed with powerful antioxidants and hydrators to feel delightfully light and fresh on the skin. It’s super comfy, makes your skin look great on its own and under makeup, and offers protection for a day on the run – and in the sun!
