Does Makeup with SPF Actually Work?

It’s no secret that many women prefer a streamlined beauty routine. Combining skincare and makeup into one step is appealing. That’s why we’ve seen a surge in multi-benefit products, and the data backs it up too — 74% of women would opt for foundation with SPF. 

But does Makeup with SPF Actually Work?

The short answer is yes. Makeup with SPF undergoes the same rigorous testing and regulatory standards as traditional sunscreen. In the US, all sunscreens are regulated as drugs, ensuring that they meet specific criteria for safety and efficacy. This means you can trust that the SPF claim on your makeup is accurate.

So, why incorporate SPF-powered makeup routine?

  • Convenience: Streamline your beauty ritual with a product that offers both coverage and protection.
  • Protection: Even minimal sun exposure can contribute to premature aging and skin damage. SPF in makeup provides an extra layer of defense.

At TONAL, we understand the importance of sun protection. That’s why we developed Sunveil SPF 50 Skin Defense Foundation. We believe that protecting your skin shouldn’t compromise your beauty routine. By offering a foundation with built-in SPF and patented skincare actives, we’re making it easier for women to incorporate sun protection into their daily lives.


Remember, makeup with SPF is not a replacement for traditional sunscreen. It should be used in conjunction with other sun protection measures, such as seeking shade and wearing protective clothing. But it can certainly help to boost your overall sun protection.
