What is Tinted Sunscreen? Things You Need to Know

Sunscreens are a must regardless of the weather. They come in non-tinted and tinted formulations, with the latter gaining more popularity as they are said to give the skin a subtle glow. As tinted sunscreens have an added tint or color base, they can both provide UV protection and help even out your skin tone or hide minor imperfections.


Does the added benefit mean that tinted formulas are better than non-tinted ones? Are they the best sunscreens for face? Is it time to replace your current SPF with a tinted one? Continue reading as we explore what tinted sunscreen is and what makes it different from a typical formula.


What is tinted sunscreen?


Tinted sunscreens are SPF formulations that contain mineral filters such as zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, as well as additional pigments. These colored pigments create shades that match different skin tones, adding another layer of protection while also giving the skin an attractive glow.

With skin tone shades or visible skin-tone color, tinted sunscreens can reflect away visible light. The additional color of these formulas is created by mixing yellow, red, and black iron oxide with pigmentary titanium dioxide. This provides a tint that can be matched to any skin tone.
