High-Performance Daily Protection targeting Oxidative Ageing™

Sheer Hydration Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Versatile Tint is a 100% mineral tinted sunscreen that combines daily protection with a complexion benefit in one step. Sheer Hydration is a next-generation, antioxidant-infused sunscreen that doesn’t just protect—it actively reduces the visible impact of this oxidative damage.

The sheer tint is designed to help unify skin tone across a range of complexions, supporting a naturally healthy, luminous appearance, making it a practical choice for normal to dry skin that wants its SPF to do a little more. Broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection is delivered by micronised mineral filters. The moisturising base helps maintain hydration throughout the day, while the antioxidant complex targets Oxidative Ageing™, defending against pollution, HEV blue light, and infrared radiation alongside standard UV protection.  Lightweight, non-comedogenic, and part of AlumierMD's Core 4 Essentials routine. Suitable for daily wear alone or under makeup.   

For no coverage, see Sheer Hydration Untinted. For oily or blemish-prone skin, see Clear Shield.

Please note: The SPF designation has been updated from SPF 40 to SPF 30 to comply with new EU regulations. The active ingredient formulation and the level of sun protection remain unchanged.

Ingredients

Micronised Zinc Oxide: A safe, micro-fine mineral that offers broad-spectrum protection from both UVA (ageing) and UVB (sunburn-causing) rays without leaving residual chalkiness on skin. Zinc oxide is known as a physical sunscreen agent, largely reflecting and scattering UV rays.

Titanium Dioxide: A safe, naturally occurring mineral coated for sun stability, titanium dioxide offers broad-spectrum protection from both UVA (ageing) and UVB (sunburn-causing) rays. Like zinc oxide, titanium dioxide is known as a physical sunscreen agent, largely reflecting and scattering UV rays.

Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate: A stable form of the powerful antioxidant vitamin C, which protects the skin against UV-induced free radical damage. It also brightens the skin and evens out skin tone.

Tocopherol Acetate: An effective form of vitamin E for the skin, this highly moisturising and fat-soluble vitamin acts as an antioxidant, which strengthens the effect of vitamin C.

Resveratrol: Derived either from grape seeds or the Japanese knotweed plant, this antioxidant neutralises free radical damage.

Glutathione: An antioxidant peptide produced naturally in our bodies, glutathione helps recycle other antioxidants. Glutathione levels decrease with age.

ELIX-IR™: Knotgrass extract, which is rich in flavonoids, and protects the skin against the damaging effects of infrared (IR).

Physavie®: A plant extract that shields against the effects of IR and visible light (HEV).

Exo-P™: An exopolysaccharide that acts as a biomimetic shield against particulate matter from pollution.

Backed By Science
Sheer Hydration Versatile Tint Ingredients

Sheer Hydration Versatile Tint addresses a common compromise in tinted SPF: the trade-off between protection quality, cosmetic finish, and hydration. Micronised mineral filters deliver broad-spectrum UV protection in a formula where particle size is optimised to blend invisibly, while naturally derived tint pigments adapt across a range of skin tones for a cosmetically elegant result. 

The formula shares the same antioxidant defence philosophy as Sheer Hydration Untinted, targeting Oxidative Ageing™ beyond the UV spectrum through a multi-ingredient complex that addresses HEV blue light, infrared radiation, and environmental pollution. The Exo-P™ pollution shield adds a physical barrier layer. Together, these provide protection across the full range of environmental aggressors now understood to drive visible premature skin ageing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What skin tones does the "Versatile Tint" match?

The Versatile Tint sunscreen is a universal shade designed to blend into most light-to-medium skin tones. It provides a healthy glow and offsets the natural whiteness of the mineral sunscreen filters.

Can I use this sunscreen under makeup?

Yes, Sheer Hydration SPF 30 can be used under makeup. Its tinted formula helps to unify skin tone while providing sun protection.

Does this give coverage like a foundation?

For many people, yes, it provides a natural, skin-enhancing finish suitable for everyday wear. It is not a full-coverage foundation but works well as a combined tinted moisturiser and SPF step.

Is this sunscreen safe for sensitive skin?

Yes, being a 100% physical sunscreen, it avoids chemical filters that can sting sensitive skin. The tint is iron oxide-based, which is gentle and also provides added protection against visible light (like melasma-triggering blue light).

Why did the label change from SPF 42 to SPF 30?

The formula remains exactly the same. The label change is solely to align with updated EU regulatory standards regarding how SPF testing values are categorised on packaging. You are receiving the exact same protection profile as before.

What is the difference between Untinted unscreen and Versatile Tint sunscreen?

Untinted sunscreen is completely clear, ideal if you prefer no coverage, already use a tinted product, or have very fair or deep skin.

Versatile Tint sunscreen delivers a sheer finish that helps unify skin tone with a natural luminous effect. Both are suited to normal to dry skin.

For oily or blemish-prone skin, see Clear Shield.

Not sure if Versatile Tint is right for you?

For no coverage, see Sheer Hydration Untinted sunscreen.

For oily or blemish-prone skin, see Clear Shield sunscreen.

Reviews

Tip-top

"I really like this tint, it makes you look very healthy and I find it doesn't sit in my wrinkles. I haven't used foundation at all since I've had this and it's much nicer on my 54 year old skin. The only downside is the tube, the product gets caked up in the lid and it gets very messy."

— be c. (5/5)

Perfect coverage

"This glides on beautifully and gives enough coverage without looking like you're wearing anything. Perfectly blends into the skin. It's pricey but worth it, plus you get the added spf to protect from sun damage. I will never be without it now."

— Victoria B. (5/5)

Great product - 2flaws

"Hi. I really like your sheer hydration. I use daily. My two wishes are that it was not so expensive ( just ordered an alternative to try in this basis) also that you could decant it- it does not last after 2 days when I have tried. . or you would offer sachets / sample size for travel. I don’t have skin concerns but can’t submit this review without choosing one so disregard please."

— Lesley H. (4/5)

Another alumieremd product I would

— Susan F. (5/5)

Doesn’t sit right

"My aesthetics practitioner recommended this however, I feel its ingredients don’t sit well on my skin. It’s too greasy and the product/tint builds in areas so it’s uneven and patchy!"

— Rachel C. (2/5)
