Mineral sun protection and light coverage in one pocket compact
Avène Sun High Protection Tinted Compact is a 100% mineral tinted sunscreen for the face, made for skin that is highly sensitive or intolerant to chemical filters. Its cream-to-powder texture combines titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which give broad UVA and UVB protection without triggering reactions, with a vitamin E precursor that helps protect skin cells from free radicals. It evens out the complexion with light to medium coverage, resists water for 40 minutes and fits in a bag for touch-ups through the day.
The texture
A smooth cream compact that turns powdery as you blend it with the sponge. It gives a velvety, matte finish with buildable light to medium coverage and no white cast. It is fragrance-free and comes in two shades: Beige, for light to medium skin, and Honey, for medium to tanned skin.
Who it suits
- Sensitive skin that reacts to chemical sun filters or fragrance
- Anyone who wants sun protection and makeup in one step
- Touch-ups over sunscreen during the day, in the city or on holiday
- Skin with redness or uneven tone that likes a little coverage
Worth knowing before you buy: the compact contains silicones and talc and gives a matte finish, which can feel dry on very dry skin. The 10g compact is ideal for the face and top-ups; use a separate body sunscreen for the rest of the body.
