Lisa Rinna, 60, uses this tinted sunscreen — it's FSA or HSA-eligible at Amazon
The former Real Housewife and 14,000 enthusiastic shoppers, rave about this double-duty cream.
Lisa Rinna — one of our favorite Real Housewives — has been happily married to Harry Hamlin for nearly 27 years, and she's been rocking the same haircut for longer! That's proof that if something's working for you, you work it. You know what else works for her? EltaMD UV Clear Tinted Face Sunscreen. She uses it year-round, of course, because she lives in sunny SoCal, but now that it's summer, your skin probably needs some protection, too. Thinking about dropping a bottle in your cart? Here's a secret: If you get it through the Amazon FSA store, you can get it using the pre-tax money you set aside to use for health and personal care. It's like a 30% discount.
This gentle mineral sunscreen offers UVA/UVB protection; plus it's water-resistant for up to 40 minutes.
Rinna, 60, went through her whole beauty routine on video for Vogue. It's pretty impressive — she even gets a custom blood cream that uses her own plasma to keep her skin youthful. While that might be too much for us regular people, she gets real about sun protection — especially as a mom.
"My girls, they're at that age where they want to just go outside and bake in the sun," she said. "I'm horrified when I see it. I'm like guys you cannot put your face in the sun and of course, they don't listen to me because you know back in the day we were like lying on foil in the backyard."
Now that she's older and wiser, she skips the foil and makes sun protection a top priority.
"I don't go downstairs until I put my sunscreen on ... the minute you hit the windows the minute you see the sun it's going to hit your face so I always have sunscreen on."
Her favorite? EltaMD UV Clear Tinted Face Sunscreen.
"I love this because it gives you that you know just like a little hint of freshness because you know when I see Harry Hamlin I want him to see I'm fresh as a daisy and I look cute right so I think this is always nice and I'm protected."
With zinc oxide and octinoxate, this tinted sunscreen gives you broad-spectrum protection against UVA (rays that age your skin) and UVB (rays that burn your skin). This sheer formula is oil-free, mineral-based and doesn't leave behind a sticky residue. It's also ideal for acne-prone skin.
Lisa is not the only one who loves this tinted sunscreen — it has nearly 14,000 rave reviews from Amazon shoppers.
"I've never been so happy with a skincare item," shared one bronzed beauty. "It feels amazing on the skin, and the best part is that it makes me look glowy and bright. I don't look pale or tired, but fresh and a little bronzy. I won't be buying any other sunscreen ever again."
I have melasma and I [have used] this sunscreen every day under my makeup for years," share a loyal fan. "I first used it when I bought it from a dermatologist's office 13 years ago. After I stopped seeing that Derm I couldn't find it and had to experiment with different sunscreens for a few years. I was so happy when I found this sunscreen on Amazon and I've now been using it and buying from Amazon for the past 4 years. It has helped to keep the melasma from getting darker. I'm fair-skinned and this tinted color looks dark when dispensed but blends in upon applying. I think it would work for any skin color."
"Holy grail of skincare products!" wrote another enthusiastic shopper. "This is my daily sunscreen. I absolutely love this. I have VERY sensitive and when I say sensitive I mean, even sensitive skin products will irritate me. This has NOT ONCE made my skin burn or break out in a chemical rash. I have tried other face sunscreens that a dermatologist recommended but this has been the best one yet. I also have a pale complexion and I love that it gives me a natural-looking glow and tint."
This lightweight formula can be worn both instead of or under makeup. It's also oil-free and mineral-based, and contains zinc oxide for maximum protection.
