Make-up and sun protection: why separate products aren't enough
Most people apply too little sun protection - and under make-up it gets even less. Make-up with integrated SPF doesn't solve this problem completely (the amount applied is too small for full protection), but it adds up. Sun protection plus SPF make-up on top means double protection.
Colorescience has specialised in exactly this concept. All make-up products contain mineral UV filters (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) and are free from chemical filters, parabens and fragrances. This makes them well tolerated even by sensitive and rosacea-prone skin.
Foundation with SPF: the Natural Finish Foundation SPF 20 offers light to medium coverage. The Tint Du Soleil Whipped Foundation SPF 30 has a whipped texture for an ultra-light feel - plus retinol and ceramides beneath the colour.
Primer with SPF: the Brightening Primer SPF 20 corrects a dull complexion with a yellow undertone, the Bronzing Primer SPF 20 gives a warm bronze look. Both work as a make-up base and sun protection at the same time.
Correctors: the Mineral Corrector Palette SPF 20 contains four colours - green against redness, peach against dark circles, beige and sand for the complexion.
As an authorised Colorescience retailer in Germany, we can confirm: demand for make-up with integrated sun protection has doubled over the past two years. Our customers in Cologne particularly appreciate that Colorescience does entirely without chemical filters - important for everyone who wants to be on the safe side after treatments or with sensitive skin.

Frequently asked questions about make-up with sun protection
Is make-up with SPF enough as sun protection?
Not on its own. The amount of foundation you apply isn't enough for the stated sun protection factor. You always need a separate sun protection underneath. The SPF make-up on top is a bonus.
Is mineral make-up better for sensitive skin?
Usually yes. Mineral filters sit on top of the skin instead of being absorbed and irritate less often than chemical filters. Colorescience formulates all products without parabens, fragrances and talc.
How do I apply SPF make-up over sun protection?
Apply sun protection first and let it absorb for 2-3 minutes. Then primer, then foundation. With Colorescience Face Shield as the base and Natural Finish Foundation on top, you have mineral protection in both layers.
Which Colorescience make-up for which occasion?
Everyday: primer + Brush-On Shield. More coverage: Natural Finish Foundation or Tint Du Soleil. Events: Mineral Corrector Palette for targeted corrections, then foundation. Beauty on the Go Palette as a finishing touch.
Can I combine Colorescience make-up with other brands?
Yes. The mineral formulas are compatible with all skincare products in our range. Ideal combination: ZO Skin Health or iS Clinical as care, Colorescience Face Shield as sun protection, Colorescience make-up as the finish.
