This SPF duo pairs everyday sun protection with skin-enhancing benefits. Sheer SPF delivers broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection in a lightweight, oil-free formula that hydrates, visibly brightens and helps reduce puffiness. Tinted SPF offers the same level of protection with a sheer tint to subtly even skin tone. Together, they provide daily defense while leaving skin looking fresh, balanced, and naturally radiant.

FAQs

Is this product considered pregnancy or nursing-friendly?

We recommend consulting your healthcare provider for any specific concerns.

What skin types is Barefaced SPF best for?

This sunscreen is ideal for normal, combination, and sensitive skin types. Because it’s mineral-based and free of fragrance, it’s gentle enough for post-procedure or reactive skin.

If you’re oily, it can double as your primer; if you’re dry, apply over a lightweight moisturizer for smoother blending.

Can I wear SPF with makeup?

Absolutely. It layers beautifully under foundation or tinted moisturizer and also gives a polished, even finish on its own.

If you’re wearing makeup, reapply with a powder or spray SPF to maintain protection throughout the day.

Reviews

Holy Grail

"I have tried about 10 different spfs for daily wear. I like tinted, but I want it very sheer and it's hard to match my lighter but yellow toned skin. This goes on silk. The tint blends seamlessly, and the untinted isn't too chalky. My skin is getting drier as I get older, so I need a moisturizer under, but texture, color, and performance are A+."

Jennifer A. (5/5)

"Its wonderful!! Its literally been about two wks and ive seen a drastic difference in my skin!!"

Heather (5/5)

Best sunscreen, hands down

"This is the only sunscreen formula that has ever made me actually look forward to putting it on AND to do so consistently!"

Jennifer J. (5/5)

Great formula

"I love this sunscreen! The tinted version is amazing for lightly evening out my complexion. The sheer is also great! Both versions wear wonderfully under makeup or on their own. I love how smooth it applies and it doesn’t feel too greasy. Truly one of the best sunscreens I’ve used and I keep coming back to it for years!"

Katie (5/5)

The best sunscreen duo!

"The best sunscreen duo! Usually sunscreen burns my face upon application but these do not! They keep my skin feeling hydrated. I love the tinted one for my no makeup days!"

Kelsey E. (5/5)

Best SPF on the market

"The absolute best SPF. I have used the nontinted SPF for about two years and love it. It actually makes your skin look much brighter and more even. I recently tried the tinted and now cannot live without it. I work from home so don't need a full face of makeup and the tinted SPF is the perfect amount of sheer coverage. It's like a filter for your face for zoom meetings. I can't recommend this SPF enough!"

Allison P. (5/5)

Best SPF ever!

"My daughters and I LOVE the SPF duo! It is light on your face, perfect for all skin types, and gives the protection you need. The tinted one has just the right amount of pigment to even skin tone, so I don’t have to wear foundation or other make up!"

Elizabeth J. (5/5)

Impressed!

"Goes on smooth and blends really nicely. I have a medium skin tone with freckles and the tinted SPF matches well. The sheer SPF is literally that. . no white cast."

Q&A

Can you use this in place of moisturizer if you are more combo/oily skinned?
Hi Kristen! Yes! Barefaced SPF contains hydrating ingredients and may be used as your moisturizer in the AM. If further hydration is needed, a thin layer of moisturizer may be applied before applying SPF over top.
