I Found The Perfect Mineral Face Sunscreen For Medium To Dark Skin — And It Has No White Cast!
Finding a sunscreen that has no white cast on medium to dark skin is hard. I’m so happy I discovered the Live Tinted Hueguard 3-in-1 Mineral Sunscreen-Moisturizer-Primer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 — it’s truly one-of-a-kind.

No white cast at all (brown girl-approved!)
The Live Tinted Hueguard is a mineral sunscreen that leaves no white cast (the greyish white film that most sunscreens leave behind on deeper skin tones) and blends beautifully into the skin.
The formula of the sunscreen is serum-like and leaves a healthy glow on the skin. It’s not greasy or goopy. No weird chemical smell or anything.
It looks great with or without makeup. If you plan to wear makeup on top, then give the sunscreen (as you should with any other sunscreen too) a few minutes to absorb into the skin.
Moisturizer + SPF in one step is game-changer
I was slightly skeptical about the “3-in-1” sunscreen/moisturizer/primer product claim. But after testing the Live Tinted Hueguard for 8 weeks I can safely say that I’m a believer! Due to the lightweight serum-like formula, the product hydrates and primes the skin really well and makeup applies very smoothly on top. My skin feels smooth, plump and hydrated all day.
By combining the moisturizer and sunscreen steps into one, my morning skincare routine on most days is down to three simple steps — cleanse, vitamin C serum, moisturizer + SPF — and done in less than 5 minutes. When I’m in a real rush, I skip the vitamin C serum and simply do a cleanse, and apply Hueguard (about 3-4 pumps).

Sensitive, acne-prone skin approved
Not every sunscreen suits my sensitive, acne-prone skin. Most cause break-outs because due to having thicker and potentially pore-clogging formulas. With the Hueguard I have none of those issues; the formula is very gentle, lightweight and doesn’t cause any reactions.
Added bonus: the Hueguard is clean, vegan, cruelty-free, fragrance-free & reef safe. It is also a mineral sunscreen, which makes it safe for pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Finally, an SPF product that works for deeper skin tones
I am rarely so blown away by beauty products, but with the Live Tinted Hueguard, I really am. Finding a good SPF that works well, doesn’t leave a white cast on my medium-deep skin or cause breakouts for is surprisingly hard. The Hueguard saves me time and so much stress; it’s a total winner and now has a permanent spot in my skincare line up.
