“Sunscreen Make-up”: The TikTok trend: How sun protection finds its way into the beauty routine

It is by no means only an important topic in midsummer: Gone are the days when sun protection was annoying, unpopular, but tireless in skin care. The “sunscreen make-up” trend, driven by TikTok, not only protects against harmful UV rays, but also gives a luminous, more natural finish. A sun protection factor (SPF) is now an essential part of the daily make-up routine for many women. And for good reason:

Sun protection is the most important protection against premature aging of the skin, pigmentation disorders and, most importantly, skin cancer. However, it has often been neglected or only used sporadically in the past. However, the “sunscreen make-up” trend has awakened a new awareness: a steadily growing number of make-up products now contain SPF, which makes it easier to combine sun protection and a make-up routine.

More and more beauty products contain SPF

For some time now, tinted sunscreens have served as a perfect example, offering not only protection but also light coverage and an even skin tone. These multi-purpose products are great for a quick, no-fuss look. They are easy to apply and ensure that the skin is protected all day long without the makeup applied looking heavy or like a thick layer.

Furthermore, more and more foundations and BB creams contain an SPF. They offer the familiar comfort of make-up and can be easily integrated into your existing routine. Powders or setting sprays with SPF (which ensure that the make-up lasts longer) are particularly helpful when you're on the go; they can be applied over the make-up and provide protection all day long.

This makes daily sun protection a matter of course

The “sunscreen make-up” trend offers the best possible proof that sun protection and beauty care go hand in hand. The best thing about it: it can be easily integrated into any make-up routine. This way, sun protection becomes a matter of course – completely stress-free.
