SPF is your best friend

Once upon a time, sun protection was considered limited to only the Australian and European beaches or athletes playing in extreme heat. Thanks to growing research in skin and beauty, we also know how important it is for us to protect our beautiful skin ourselves against the sun's harmful UV rays.

 Today, dermatologists around the world stress the importance of wearing sun protection, even when the sun is not blazing outside.

Luscious has cracked the code. Here are some fun tips to protect yourself against the sun while still looking lusciously flawless and sun-kissed.

 

Let’s ditch the thick, greasy sunscreens

Like us, are you also a girl who loves her sun-kissed looks and skin alike? For us South Asian girls, achieving a radiant, even-toned complexion is even more challenging. Our beautiful melanin-rich skin, which makes us oh-so exotic, also possesses a heightened vulnerability to sun damage.

Don’t worry, darlings. We have cracked the code:  flawless, sun-protected skin is entirely achievable if you’re a skintellectual who understands how SPF works!

To start with, ditch the outdated, cheap, greasy creams and embrace makeup that offers built-in sun protection designed to enhance your natural skin glow. Foundations, lip balms, BB creams and what not, these SPF-rich products are your best friends.

SPF-rich makeup is your best friend!

Now that we know, the higher the SPF the better the protection. So, look out for products that have an SPF of 15 or higher. If the SPF is 30 and above, you have won at life.

Foundations, moisturisers, primers, and lip balms, Luscious has got you covered. A moisture-rich primer not only hydrates your skin but also provides the right sun protection.

Many of us skincare girlies know that lips also deserve love and safety as much as the rest of our face. How about SPF-infused lip balms that provide a matte finish to minimise shine and maximise sun defence? No more sun-damaged lips!

Lock it all in with setting sprays and powders for an extra layer of protection throughout the day. For touch-ups, use our Softlight Setting Powder, Softlight Banana Powder, or Softlight Peach Powder to mattify your skin and keep your sun protection lusciously topped up.

Stay Lusciously sun-kissed

By now, you know that we at Luscious Cosmetics love our sun-kissed makeup. But hey, we love sun defence even more. They say perfection does not exist, but our innovative brightening base is here to stay.

This revolutionary staple boasts an impressive SPF 35, offering hydration, priming, and sun protection in one luxurious formula. You will be surprised that this weightless base not only protects you against the sun but also gives you radiantly flawless coverage.

Do you still want to use a sunscreen before applying your makeup, or opt for a Luscious brightening base that combines every feature into one product? Our pick is definitely the latter.
