What Is MDSolarSciences Cheek Crème SPF 30?

MDSolarSciences Cheek Crème SPF 30 is more than just a blush. It’s a dual-function cosmetic that combines:

  • Broad-spectrum SPF 30 to shield your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays
  • Skin-nourishing ingredients like jojoba oil, shea butter, plant-derived squalane, and antioxidants (Vitamins C & E)

This vegan, cruelty-free formula is non-comedogenic and dermatologist-developed, making it safe for sensitive skin while delivering a luminous finish.

Why Choose Cheek Crème SPF 30?

Infused with jojoba oil, shea butter, and plant-derived squalane, the Cheek Crème hydrates without feeling greasy. Vitamins C & E provide antioxidant support, helping to promote healthy-looking skin over time.

3. Buildable Color for Every Occasion

Whether you want a subtle daytime flush or a more dramatic evening look, the creamy, blendable texture allows you to layer color without compromising SPF protection.

4. Ethical, Clean Beauty

  • Vegan & cruelty-free
  • Gluten-free & fragrance-free
  • Dermatologist-developed for sensitive skin

Is Natural Tanning Bad for You?

Is Natural Tanning Bad for You?

Let’s settle this for good: a tan isn’t “healthy color.” Not even a little. A light tan might look radiant, but what you’re seeing is your skin responding to UV damage. When UV exposure hits, melanin production spikes in self-defense—darkening the skin to try to prevent even more injury. That golden-hour glow people chase? It’s a red flag, not a wellness win. The good news: you don’t need UV damage to get that luminous look. Tinted sunscreens, daily moisturizers with SPF, and modern makeup alternatives deliver believable, healthy-looking radiance—minus the risk. So go ahead, glow smarter and keep your skin protected.

Sun Damage: Beyond Wrinkles

Sun Damage: Beyond Wrinkles

Sun damage affects more than just your skin’s surface. While wrinkles are the most visible sign, UV exposure also harms collagen, disrupts your skin’s immune defense, triggers dark spots, changes texture, and can even damage DNA, increasing the risk of skin cancer. UVA rays penetrate deep and cause aging, while UVB rays burn the surface. Prevention is key: daily broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+), reapplication, and coverage of often-forgotten areas like eyes, lips, and hands protect both appearance and health. Modern formulas, including tinted and mineral options, combine UV protection with hydration and antioxidants to defend, correct, and restore skin. Consistent sun care preserves skin’s firmness, radiance, and long-term health—because stopping damage before it starts is the smartest beauty move.

The SPF Matchmaker: Find Your Perfect Sunscreen by Skin Type

The SPF Matchmaker: Find Your Perfect Sunscreen by Skin Type

Overview: Not all sunscreens are created equal—and the wrong one can sabotage your skin. Whether you’re oily, dry, sensitive, or acne-prone, discover your SPF soulmate with dermatologist-developed formulas designed to protect, perfect, and actually feel good on your skin. The SPF Matchmaker: Find Your Perfect Sunscreen by Skin Type When it comes to sunscreen, most of us know the basics: apply broad-spectrum protection, reapply every two hours and don’t skip a day—even if it’s cloudy (yes, really). But here’s the thing, are you using SPF that’s best for your skin? Your skin type matters more than you think when it comes to picking the right formula. The Wrong SPF Can Sabotage Your Skin Sunscreens that feel like silk on dry skin might turn into an oil slick on oily skin. A formula that works wonders for acne-prone complexions could leave sensitive types red and irritated. It’s not one-size-fits-all, and honestly, why should it be? The good news: no matter your skin type, there’s an SPF soulmate destined to be your perfect match. Founded by dermatologists, MDSolarSciences really understands that your skin type should be factored into the sunscreen that you choose and use; and we’ve spent years perfecting formulas that work as hard for your skin as they do against UV rays. Consider this your guide to finding “the one.” Why Your SPF Should Swipe Right on Your Skin Type Think of sunscreen as the ultimate multitasker. It’s the non-negotiable daily step that protects against sunburn, premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and even skin cancer. But beyond that, it’s also skincare. The right SPF should elevate your daily routine, not work against it. Here’s what happens when your SPF isn’t a good match: Oily skin: heavy formulas = clogged pores and extra shine. Dry skin: matte or oil-free sunscreens can leave your complexion parched and flaky. Sensitive skin: chemical filters may trigger stinging or redness. Acne-prone skin: greasy or comedogenic formulas can fuel breakouts. Translation: the wrong sunscreen can play havoc with your skin. But don’t stress, read on to discover formulas you’re sure to fall in love with. For Oily Skin: Stay Shine-Free & Fabulous Oily skin gets a bad rap, but here’s the upside: all that natural moisture keeps skin plumper and younger-looking for longer. The challenge? Shine, clogged pores, and breakouts. What to look for: Lightweight, oil-free, or gel-based formulas Non-comedogenic (translation: won’t clog pores) Matte or soft-focus finishes to counter shine MDSolarSciences Pick: Mineral Crème SPF 50 This cult-favorite formula feels like cashmere on your skin and dries to a natural matte finish—no greasy residue, no pore-clogging oils. The naturally derived zinc oxide protects against UV rays, while antioxidants like Vitamin C go the extra mile to fight free radicals. It’s basically SPF with a built-in Instagram filter. Pro tip: If you get shiny mid-day, keep blotting papers handy, but resist the urge to powder over your sunscreen. That can mess with your protection. Instead, reapply with a portable stick formula. Dry Skin: Quench Its Thirst If moisturizer disappears on your skin faster than you can say “reapply,” you need SPF that works double duty to keep hydration locked in while defending against the sun. The wrong sunscreen can suck away what little moisture you have left, leaving your skin feeling tight, flaky, and uncomfortable. What to look for: Creamy, hydrating textures Moisture-boosting ingredients like vitamin E or hyaluronic acid Sunscreens with a dewy finish MDSolarSciences Pick: Mineral Tinted Crème SPF 30Sunscreen that feels like skincare, it’s silky, moisturizing, antioxidant-packed, and has just the right amount of tint to blur and even out skin tone. Translation: your dry skin gets a healthy drink of hydration and that dewy, lit-from-within glow. Pro tip: Apply SPF as the last step in your routine over your moisturizer, not instead of it. Layering hydration is key for parched skin. Sensitive Skin: Handle With Care If your skin flares up at the mere mention of a new product, don’t worry… we’ve got you. Chemical filters can sting, fragrances can irritate, and heavy formulas are a recipe for redness. The good news: mineral sunscreens are your sensitive skin’s BFF. They use zinc oxide and titanium dioxide to physically block rays, and they’re far less likely to irritate your skin. What to look for: 100% mineral formulas (zinc oxide + titanium dioxide = gentle heroes) Fragrance-free, soothing, minimalist ingredient lists Formulas that feel so great you’ll actually want to wear them every day MDSolarSciences Pick: Solar Stick SPF 40Kid-safe, (aka, gentle) fragrance-free, and gentle enough for even the most easily irritated complexions. This on-the-go stick glides on seamlessly, no stinging, no burning. Bonus: it’s also portable, so you can reapply at a moment’s notice. It’s a sensitive skin win. Pro tip: Always patch test, even with mineral sunscreens. A quick dab on your jawline can save you from a full-face freakout.Acne-Prone Skin: Breakouts BewareThe last thing acne-prone skin needs is another reason to break out. Unfortunately, the wrong SPF can do just that, clogging pores, adding grease, or suffocating skin. The right one? Game-changer. What to look for: Oil-free, lightweight textures Non-comedogenic (aka, won’t clog pores) Mattifying finishes with calming ingredients like niacinamide or green tea MDSolarSciences Pick: Tinted Solar Stick SPF 40Portable and sheer, this SPF stick won’t clog pores, but it will protect your skin while blending seamlessly into your complexion. It’s antioxidant-rich to calm inflammation and compact enough to slip into your pocket. Goodbye blemishes, hello protection on-the-go. Pro tip: Never skip SPF because you’re anxious about a breakout. Fact: sun exposure can darken acne marks and make them linger, so be sure to wear it every single day. The Perfect Product Is Just The First Step Once you’ve found your SPF soulmate, here are some non-negotiables everyone should follow—no matter your skin type: Reapply, reapply, reapply. Every two hours if you’re outdoors, and more often if you’re swimming or sweating. Don’t skimp. Most people under-apply sunscreen. You need about a nickel-sized dollop for your face and a shot-glass amount for your body. Layer smart. Sunscreen goes on last (before makeup). If you’re using serums or moisturizers, let them sink in first. Don’t miss these important bits. Ears, lips, scalp part, hands, and feet. Check the expiration. Sunscreen past its prime won’t protect you. Always look for the expiration date (SPF formulas are required to list them). Bottom Line: The Perfect Match Matters Sunscreen isn’t optional…it’s essential! But finding the right one for your skin is the difference between “ugh, I’ll skip it today” and “aah, this feels so amazing I want to wear it every day.” Whether you’re oily, dry, sensitive, or acne-prone, there’s a formula designed to protect, perfect, and empower your skin. Because at the end of the day, sunscreen shouldn’t just protect you from the sun, it should make you love the skin you’re in. What are you waiting for: Discover Your SPF Soulmate Today Shop Now
