The INKEY List Polyglutamic Acid Dewy Sunscreen SPF30, 50ml

Product Information

HOW DO I LAYER THIS UNDER MAKE UP? We recommend to wait 2-3 minutes before applying makeup. This will give the SPF a chance to fully absorb and settle without leaving any white residue. To start with, always apply an adequate base before putting on any makeup – this should be the final step in your daily skincare routine. Now, when the time comes to re-apply SPF, you can simply use a sponge to blot sunscreen on top of your makeup gently. Just add some sunscreen to a dampened sponge and lightly dab it all over your face until absorbed, ensuring every area is adequately covered. As we all know, protecting our skin from those harsh UVA and UVB rays is crucial for maintaining healthy looking skin. Our new Polyglutamic Acid Dewy Sunscreen SPF 30 not only provides top-notch protection, but it also enhances your natural radiance, leaving you with a dewy, healthy glow. If reapplying over makeup, we would recommend to reapply with a beauty blender and lightly dab all over the face until it's been absorbed, and each area is covered.

We’ve looked at texture, application, claims and the impact on skin to find out which one is worth your time and money. First, let’s take a look at the claims that The Inkey List are making about the product. Those are in bold, and I’ve added my take next to each. Non-pilling – Pilling is where your skincare products clash with one another for several reasons, such as incompatible textures, which cause a bobbly or balling effect on the skin – almost like the products are peeling. It’s super frustrating when this happens, as it often means you need to start your skincare and makeup from scratch. I personally struggle a lot with this claim, as a product pilling depends on the other products it is being applied with. There’s no way to know how the consumer will layer a product, and therefore whether it will bobble on their skin.WHEN WOULD I USE ON MY ROUTINE?Use as the very last step in your AM routine after your moisturizer. First and foremost, this product provides your skin the daily protection from harmful UVA and UVB rays with organic chemical UV filters. The element of this formulation that makes it unique is its 8% Hydration Trio of Polyglutamic Acid, Glycerin and Squalane.

How is best to reapply? If reapplying over makeup, we would recommend to reapply with a beauty blender and lightly dab all over the face until it's been absorbed, and each area is covered. Reapply frequently, especially after perspiring, swimming or towelling. What is the true difference between SPF 30 and 50? Various research states that the SPF (sun protection factor) is a number that helps determine roughly how long you can stay in the sun for without burning vs your norm without protection. For example, if your skin would usually burn after 10 minutes of sun exposure, then an SPF 30 estimates protection for 300 minutes and an SPF 50 estimates 500 minutes of protection, however this can differ based on skin sensitivity and the strength of the sun rays.
