Daily sun protection is one of the most effective ways to care for your skin in the long term. But let’s be honest, remembering to apply a separate SPF every morning isn’t always realistic, while some sunscreens feel too heavy or don’t play nice with makeup.
That’s why we love a hardworking moisturiser that builds in sunscreen without any extra effort. From deeply hydrating creams to lightweight protectors, we’ve rounded up our favourite moisturisers with SPF to guard against UV damage – no complicated routines required.
Want lasting hydration and solid sun protection? This is your new beauty staple. Cetaphil’s Daily Defence is an advanced sunscreen with UVA and UVB protection, but it also contains a complex of niacinamide and chicory extract to hydrate, reduce redness and strengthen your skin barrier. It’s also oil-free, so it won’t clog your pores.
Toss it in your bag for a fuss-free way to stay glowing and guarded all day long. Plus, it’s like the perfect sidekick that works hard so you don’t have to. Just smooth it on and you’re ready to go.
Best for: dry skin in need of deep, daily hydration.
If unbeatable protection is your top priority, this silky sunscreen more than delivers. The powerful blend includes zinc oxide, ceramides (helpful fats to support your skin barrier), and moisturising coconut oil.1 This one’s also certified as 100% natural – perfect for more delicate skin types.
It’ll leave you with a satin-smooth finish that’s ready for anything, from beach days to Teams calls. You’ll feel like you’re stepping into a spa every time you apply it, except instead of a cucumber mask, you’ve got a glow that could stop traffic.
Best for: skin that needs extra protection.
Another hydrating hero, Vitaskin’s Daily Protect is packed with some handy extras. Vitamin E2 is the star ingredient, which has antioxidant and photoprotective properties, so it can protect the skin from the harmful effects of sunlight, which build up over time. There’s also gentle lavender oil, hailed as soothing3 for skin.
This lightweight moisturiser sinks in easily so you don’t need to wait ages before applying makeup if you’re in a rush. It’s like the skincare equivalent of your favourite dress – simple, effective and always ready to impress. Plus, it smells like a garden of relaxation.
Best for: hardworking on-the-go protection.
If your skin’s looking a little tired or dull, this SPF-infused day cream is a smart way to bring it back to life. Powered by rose, cucumber seed oil and marshmallow extract, the formula is rich in natural antioxidants and fatty acids, which can help fend off environmental stressors (like sunlight and pollution).
Think of it as your “I woke up like this” moment, but with a whole lot more glow and no need for coffee. Plus, the gentle scent of rose and citrus makes it a delicious addition to your morning routine.
Best for: boosting glow and comfort for tired skin.
The final say
Finding an SPF that isn’t too chalky, heavy or oily is half the battle, but these multitasking moisturisers make it simple. Whether you’re chasing hydration, protection or brightness, each one earns its place in your routine by keeping your skin shielded and supported.
Plus, they’re packed with helpful extras like antioxidants and natural oils to give your skin a healthy glow. Consider this your easiest step towards long-term skin health, with minimal effort.
