Slathering on sunscreen every day might feel like an extra task, but it's an essential part of every beauty routine. Not only will SPF protect you from harmful UV rays (you can see the danger of lack of sun protection here), but it will also help prevent burning, discolouration, and other topical issues from occurring on the skin.
But even though SPF is a crucial part of a skincare regimen, it hasn't always been the most flattering on brown skin. Many formulas have been notorious for leaving behind an ashy blue or grey tint when applied to warm complexions, causing some people of colour to eliminate the step altogether.
The good news, however, is that all sunscreens are not created equal and there are a ton on the market that won't make people of colour look ghostly. If you've been on the hunt for sun protection that won't compromise your complexion, we've tapped the beauty influencers you trust to share which SPF products they use on their brown skin — check them out ahead.
