Compact foundation Medium SPF 50+
pHformula Compact Foundation Medium SPF 50+ is a longwearing tinted compact that combines broad-spectrum sun protection with a natural, blendable medium coverage. Vegan, reef-friendly and ideal for Cyprus sun — perfect for daily wear and as the finishing step after professional skincare treatments.
About this product
This compact pairs SPF 50+ UVA/UVB filters with the Pro-defence and Skin Antiox complexes — antioxidants that protect against blue light, free radicals and photoageing. Coverage is medium and buildable, finish is satin-dewy, and the formula is hydrating instead of drying, so it won’t emphasize fine lines or texture.
Who it’s for
- Daily sun protection with light makeup coverage — the Cyprus climate
- After resurfacing procedures (peels, laser, microneedling) when the skin needs both SPF and visual evening-out
- Combination, normal and slightly dry skin types
- Anyone looking for a clean, vegan, reef-safe sunscreen with colour
Key ingredients
- UVA + UVB mineral and organic filters — broad-spectrum SPF 50+
- Pro-defence complex (Pongamia glabra seed oil, Dunaliella salina, Haematococcus pluvialis) — protects against UV and blue light
- Skin Antiox complex — antioxidant shield against oxidative stress
- Carthamus tinctorius seed oil + Vitamin E — nourish and hydrate
How to use
After cleansing and your serum/moisturiser routine, apply with the supplied sponge starting from the centre of the face and blending outwards. The formula provides full coverage and allows touch-ups during the day. Reapply every 2 hours when out in the sun.
Expected results
Immediate even tone with natural medium coverage, soft satin finish that lasts 6–8 hours without setting powder. With consistent daily use: reduced photoageing, fewer new pigmentation spots and better post-procedure healing.
FAQ
Is this an SPF or a foundation?
Both. It is broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sun protection with medium tinted coverage, formulated to replace your daily SPF + light foundation step.
Will it look cakey or settle into pores?
No — the formula is hydrating with a satin-dewy finish. For very oily skin areas, set with a translucent powder where needed.
Can I use it after a chemical peel or laser?
Yes — this compact is specifically formulated for use after pHformula resurfacing procedures and other in-clinic treatments.
