How to Use The Face SPF

Apply liberally and evenly 15 minutes before sun exposure. Remember areas like ears and neck. Reapply at least every 2 hours.

Skin Tip: For added hydration, apply a moisturizer first. SPF should be the last step in your skincare routine.

The SPF That Solves Why Men Don’t Wear SPF

90% of skin aging is caused by the sun. Men’s skin is thicker and more collagen dense, making it more susceptible to UV damage. Wearing SPF daily is essential, and The Face SPF was formulated to solve many pain points that prevent men from doing so. No white cast. No fragrance. No greasy texture. Designed to optimally absorb into men’s skin.

Unrivaled ingredients

Every ingredient is carefully selected for its nutrient profile and backed by research to work for men's skin. Plant-based and 100% fair trade.

Reviews

Best face mineral sunscreen out there

"Working outdoors in a high-alpine environment means daily sun protection is a mandatory part of my routine, and The Face Mineral Sunscreen is hands-down the best I have ever used. Most mineral sunscreens are a chore to work with, but this is the only one I’ve found that goes on this effortlessly without leaving my skin tone looking white or ghostly. It feels lightweight, and because it performs so well against the elements, I carry it right in my daily pack to reapply while working outdoors. If you spend time outside and hate heavy, chalky sunscreens, this is an absolute must-have."

— tim (5/5)

"Great sundcreen - does not sting your eyes. Works well with other Caldera facial products. Unfortunately it is a very small container with a limited number of appkications; i managed a total of eight face & neck applications."

— Paul (5/5)

not greasy, easy application

Great quality

"I love it, I love how quickly it Absorbs to the skin and gives your almost this glow look"

— Jeffrey W. (5/5)

Better than regular otc sunscreens

"Probably a little better than most sunscreens but the whiteness of the product turns you and your skin pale. Come up with a clear sunscreen and you’ve got something."

— Joel N. (4/5)

"Overpriced that does a absolutely nothing"

— Carlos (1/5)

Highly recommend

"First the smell or lack there of, is very nice. Just a faint and fresh smell when applied. It doesn’t leave your face covered in white paste and absorbs immediately. Easy to apply. Not greasy. The only drawback is the price. I love the product but, it is pretty pricey for a tiny amount of product."

— glenn m. (5/5)

Great product!

"Smooth - non greasy. Great product."

— Gary P. (5/5)

Q&A

Hi! Does the face screen run with working out/sweating from being in the sun? I work outside often and sweat beads down my face when it’s super hot out and am looking for a sunscreen that is water proof. Thanks!: Thanks for reaching out! The Face SPF is specially designed to provide broad spectrum SPF 30 coverage. While it is not considered waterproof, it won’t run off or sting your eyes, and it's made to blend into your skin seamlessly without leaving a white cast. We do recommend reapplying at least every 2 hours for optimal protection. Plus, we stand by it with a 60-day money-back guarantee—love it or get your money back.
Is this product noncomedogenic?: Hi Cherith, we are happy to share that The Face SPF is non-comedogenic!
Hi, Kristin! Is your new mineral SPF product moisturizing enough to use as a “all in one” product after shaving? I live in a very warm and humid environment and feel overwhelmed in the summer with a moisturizer (I use Base Layer) and an additional sunscreen product. Perhaps using a few drops of The Good underneath the SPF and not use Base Layer during the summer months? I’ve been using The Good and Base Layer for years and layer them both every night.: Thanks for asking a great question about The Face SPF. It depends. Some individuals prefer to use a moisturizer underneath, while others prefer to use The Face SPF by its self – it truly comes down to preference and also time of year. The Face SPF is formulated with a range of incredible ingredients. It contains Bakuchiol, a plant-based retinol alternative known for its ability to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, lines, and wrinkles. It also features hydrating Squalene, along with antioxidant-rich red algae, beta-carotene, and nourishing botanicals like nettle, yarrow, and winter cherry. The Face SPF is a lightweight, 100% Mineral Sunscreen with SPF 30, providing broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays while keeping the skin hydrated. Unlike typical mineral-based sunscreens, ours doesn't leave a white cast on the skin. Its application is smooth and luxurious, effortlessly blending into your skin. It's suitable for all skin types, particularly those with sensitive skin. I consider it my favorite SPF, and I'm incredibly eager for you to give it a try!
