As a makeup artist passionate about innovative skincare, I’ve noticed that SPF often gets overlooked in daily routines. That’s why GLOWGUARD is a game-changer—it prioritises sun protection while also serving as an excellent primer to enhance makeup longevity.

I hate to admit I’m not the best with sunscreen because I generally don’t like the textures that are on the market. GLOWGUARD is unlike anything I’ve tried, so light on the skin, layers with my skincare without balling and sits beautifully underneath makeup. This is the future of SPF.

Emily Zganiacz

Massaging GLOWGUARD onto my skin with my hands is my favourite application method. It's a nice light consistency that sits beautifully under my makeup.

GLOWGUARD is the first sunscreen I can honestly admit I wear religiously. As a PoC finding a sunscreen that sits well on my skin, leaves no white cast and work perfectly under makeup has been an absolute game changer.

Ordered my second bottle and I love it 🧡

Ordered my second bottle and I love it 😀

Not greesy or sticky when I wear it, and my makeup sits well after wearing GlowGuard. This has cut my additional primer use.

I will repurchase again.

Finally, a Sunscreen That Doesn't Leave a White Cast

I've been using the Melitta GlowGuard SPF 50. Living in NZ, a decent sunscreen is a must, and a lot of them are too thick or leave a white residue. This one avoids that.

It's really light and sinks in fast. The main thing for me is that there's no white cast at all, which is hard to find. It just disappears on the skin. I use it under my foundation and it works well as a primer. It doesn’t pill, and my makeup goes on smoothly.

It's good to know it has ingredients like Centella Asiatica and Purslane, too. The glass bottle with the pipette is handy for getting the right amount. It’s a solid sunscreen if you want something that's easy to wear and doesn't leave a white finish.

Quality product for sensitive skin

Such a good sunscreen! Have been using it for several months now and love how light it is on my skin. Having had a melanoma removed, I am super conscious of using a quality product and I am happy with Glowguard. Also, my 11yr old daughter reacts to most sunscreens but not this one, its great to have one product that we can all use.

The best sunscreen!!!

My absolute favourite sunscreen I’ve ever used!! It does everything you could want from a sunscreen and more. No white cast, goes on so smoothly, moisturises, acts as the perfect primer AND has the cutest packaging! I love it!!!!

Perfect surf guard!

My brother and I use it for surfing! We can’t be bothered to reapply often, so having protection for more than 2 hours is sooo good. Also quite a few sunscreens irritate our eyes, haven’t had the issue with GlowGuard!!
