Is it bad for makeup and sunlight/heat to mix?

it can be, yes. that's never stopped me though haha, just remember to wear sunscreen. there are many, many foundations that actually have sunscreen in them. most are 15 spf so if you're more fair skinned i would wear a stronger spf sunscreen too.








here are some good foundations that have sunscreen in them and descriptions of each (the prices they wrote are kind of insane, and you can most definitely get them for cheaper so dont believe that some of those are really that expensive) --





-Almay Smart Shade Foundation


How Almay developed a foundation that matches your skin tone to a tee no one will ever know, but that is exactly what this makeup with sunscreen protection of SPF 15 does. Consumers to have to start out with the shade that most closely matches their own skin for this to work, so they need to pick the light, light/medium, or medium product that is the closest. It's very natural looking with a touch of concealer, lightweight and sheer. It is also very good at controlling oil in the skin. It is easy to apply, but consumers so make sure they blend it in well and use it sparingly to avoid streaking. This product retails for around $13 at your local drugstore or wherever makeup is sold.





-Physician's Formula Sun Shield Liquid Foundation


Containing sun block protection of SPF 15, consumers like this product because it is great for combination skin types. The finish is matte that covers flaws and it blends smoothly on the face. It is hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, PABA free, and non-comedogenic. It also helps prevent freckles and hyper pigmentation issues from sun exposure. This product retails for around $6 at your local drugstore or wherever makeup is sold.





-L'Oreal Bare Naturale Foundation


Another mineral powder foundationthis makeup with sunscreen goes on easily and provides a very natural look that is easy to apply and covers well. The powder has an almost creamy texture to it, giving the face a nice matte finish. The sunscreen is an SPF 19 which doesn't change the composition or texture of the foundation whatsoever. Two issues with this product from L'Oreal is that customers have complained about getting the right color match and that it tends to accentuate dry and flaky skin. It retails around $14 at your local drugstore or anywhere makeup is sold.





-Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation


This is a company that produces makeup and facial products designed to help the skin look its best so it's not surprising that they would put out a mineral powder foundation makeup with sunscreen. This makeup with SPF 20 includes antioxidants that are very good for the skin, especially users with oily skin. However, some customers have complained that getting the right coverage is very difficult because of the design of the brush and makeup all-in-one applicator. Some have also commented that they makeup may be too sheer. This product retails for around $12 at your local drugstore or wherever makeup is sold.

-Revlon Custom Creations Foundation


Another well known manufacturer of makeup with sunscreen, Revlon's Custom Creations Foundation is a unique product. They have managed to incorporate five foundation shades into one bottle that provides users with a total of thirty shades to choose from. The sleek turn dial on the bottle dials up the color the wearer needs and the lightweight formula is for all skin types. This makeup with SPF 15 is available for all skin tones and retails around $14 at your local drugstore or anywhere makeup is sold. The one downfall about this product is that each bottle contains 5 different shades and if you shade happens to be sold out, you cannot replace it witIs it bad for makeup and sunlight/heat to mix?
Well in a sense yes. Just because heat can make you sweat, causing the make up to melt off. Make up does not serve as sunblock so always try to wear sunblock before and after application, try bare minerals mineral veil sunblock version. So it's just bad because it won't last long, basically making the application useless, always add primer after sunscreen!
