Skincare Products with Built-In SPF

Post by Shecky's blogger, Brittany Thomas of ClumpsofMascara.com

Skin Cancer Awareness Month means it’s time for us gals (and guys…they’ve got skin too!) to be a little more cognizant about protecting our skin from those UV rays. One of the best ways to do this is to use products with SPF built right in. Check out some of my favorites.


I know it’s a bit on the pricey side but Clinique’s Even Better Skin Tone Correcting Moisturizer SPF 20 ($42.50) is absolutely fantastic. It works great for ladies with sensitive skin. Did I mention that it also helps even out your skintone a bit? Prolonged use of this baby means your lovely face will glow like the goddess that you are.


Okay, so I know it’s for guys, but I am absolutely in love with Jack Black’s Intense Therapy Lip Balm SPF 25 ($7.50 on Dermstore.com). Aside from containing SPF 25, this lip balm feels super moisturizing on your smacker. We don’t think your guy will notice if his Jack Black balm is missing. Or will he?


Are you a foundation-wearin’ kind of gal? You may want to give Cover FX Natural FX Water Based Foundation SPF 15 ($40 at Sephora) a whirl. This medium-coverage and oil-free foundation has SPF 15 and gives your skin a satiny touch. How awesome are foundations that don’t feel heavy? Cover FX feels lightweight and natural. Love it!



Don’t forget to show your hands some lovin’. Boscia Daily Hand Revival Therapy SPF 15 ($16 on Dermstore.com) feels absolutely divine on the fingers and palms. I also love that this vegan hand lotion has SPF 15. It makes a perfect addition to your purse’s beauty lineup.



Looking for a moisturizer that is so lightweight that it fits comfortably under your foundation? Look no further, girlfriend. Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 15 ($14.99) is inexpensive and super hydrating for those of us with dry skin.

Do you use any skincare products with SPF in them? What are your favorites? Have you used any of the above products?

We couldn't miss an opportunity to shout-out Dermalogica’s amazing FITE products. One of our fave products is the Skin Hydrating Booster ($54), but other than purchasing any of the FITE products, be sure to join Team Shecky’s!


The Somaly Mam Foundation sells products made by sex trafficking and slavery survivors, and the profit goes right back to the cause: raising awareness, building shelters and helping those still in crisis. The Silk Empowerment Necklace ($25) is beautiful and unique, just like the survivors who crafted it.



You may already know all about NEST and the amazing handmade goods that women around the world have created. This spring, pack up for a picnic using the Raquel Tote ($10), a fashionable way to support a female entrepreneur’s success.


Make a purchase through UNICEF’s store and the profits will do children in need a world of good. Handmade in India, the Wool & Silk Wrap ($50) features a bright, multi-colored pattern, and is bound to become your go-to spring accessory.

Do you buy products that donate to charities? What have you purchased that went to a good cause? What do you think of our picks? How do you choose to volunteer your time?
