2 years in the making with over 50 rounds of formulation, MERIT’s first-ever SPF and second-ever complexion product is here! I have everything you need to know about MERIT The Uniform Tinted Mineral SPF 50. Enjoy!
Key Ingredients
MERIT The Uniform formula uses an ultra-fine zinc oxide that allows for uniform protection against both UVA and UVB rays, and this also ensure that the product feels very lightweight on the skin.
There’s also a plant-derived emollient that is a natural alternative to silicone that helps give the formula a really pleasant silky, velvety texture with zero stickiness. and ensures no sticky feeling on the skin.
Finally, there’s also a plant-based mineral SPF booster in a powder format that promises to help to soften skin, and also ensure the zinc oxide diffuses evenly throughout the product to deliver a soft, blurred look on the skin.
