Question:
Hope you can help! Can you tell me what make-up ranges have a foundation that does NOT contain SPF? I get an allergic reaction even to the ones with only 5% SPF and it would seem that every foundation i pick up in the stores has a SPF in it. I have been using a product from SHE, which is based on using Zinc oxide as sunscreen, but it has recently become unavailable – I was told by my supplier that SHE are re-vamping their products. I am not a great fan of powder based products as I think they accentuate my facial hair. Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Answer:
Try using one of the mineral based foundations from ranges like I.D. Bare Escentuals (Ph: 1800 808 993), Glo Minerals (Ph: 1800 66 44 55) or Jane Iredale (Ph: 1300 850 008).
They’re made from 100% pure minerals and are free from preservatives, talc, oil fragrances and dyes, so they’re perfect for the most sensitive skins or skins suffering from conditions like acne or rosacea. They still provide SPF protection but without the chemicals and there are both powder and liquid foundation formulations in all these ranges.
