I tried the tinted SPF Holly Willoughby's makeup artist swears by – and it made me glow

Importance Score: 25 / 100 🔵

The tropical setting of Costa Rica served as the backdrop for Celebrity Bear Hunt, where television personality Holly Willoughby’s makeup artist, Patsy O’Neill, revealed her secret weapon for flawless sun protection and natural-looking coverage. Ultra Violette’s Daydream Screen Tinted Veil SPF50 was O’Neill’s choice for the presenter. This product offers robust sun protection, radiates a luminous finish, and boasts a featherlight texture, making it ideal for intense filming under the Costa Rican sun.

Understanding the Product Benefits

Daylong Sun Defense and Flawless Finish

Inspired by Holly Willoughby’s impeccable complexion, I decided to trial the Daydream Screen Tinted Veil myself, especially since I often struggle with makeup slippage over sunscreen. Priced at £38 and available at high-end retailers like Cult Beauty, some shades are currently available at a discounted price of £26.60 at Sephora. It’s a savvy time to explore whether your preferred shade is on yoursite or in-store.

Effortless Application and Universal Appeal

Unlike many traditional SPFs known for their thickness, this product applies like a liquid foundation, blending effortlessly with the skin. A little goes a long way, as I found that just a small amount applied easily with my fingertips.

Wide Range of Shades and Versatile Coverage

With 15 diverse shades, the Daydream Screen Tinted Veil is more than a subtle tint. It offers light-to-medium coverage, smoothing out skin imperfections, and concealing blemishes effectively.

Normally averse to shiny foundations due to their tendency to emphasize oiliness, I found this tinted veil achieved an ideal balance on my skin.

Enhancing the Application Experience

Dealing with Post-application Stickiness

Initially, a tacky feel after application can be addressed easily by dusting translucent powder onto specific areas such as the nose and under-eyes. This stickiness dissipates quickly after absorbing into the skin.

Seamless Integration with Makeup

Other makeup items, including blushes, bronzers, and highlighters, merge effortlessly over this tinted veil. I tested both powder and liquid formulas, confirming their compatibility, and there was no noticeable separation or shifting once applied.

Key Ingredients and Dermal Advantages

The moisturizing power of Pentavitin

The Daydream Screen Tinted Veil features Pentavitin, touted for its hydrating properties, positioning it as a summer-season makeup essential. Its formulation, free of silicones, oils, and alcohols, caters to all skin types.

Robust Sun Protection and Versatile Usage

While the highlight is SPF50 defending against UVA and UVB rays, this product is intended to complement rather than replace your standard sunscreen, facilitating easier reapplication throughout the day.
