Mineral foundation is made from natural minerals like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide.
These ingredients not only provide coverage but also act as physical sunscreens, blocking harmful UV rays.
Many mineral foundations come with a high SPF, such as SPF 40, to protect the skin from sun damage.
Mousse foundation has a fluffy texture but doesn’t inherently provide sun protection.
Sheer foundation gives light coverage but may not contain SPF unless specified.
Oil-based foundation focuses on hydration and finish but does not guarantee sun protection.
Therefore, mineral foundations are ideal when SPF is needed for sun protection.
