Kyle Richards swears by Supergoop! sunscreen, calling it her 'favorite' for radiant, shimmering skin
The multi-tasking Glowscreen protects the skin from UV rays, moisturizes and works as a makeup primer — no wonder it's the 'Real Housewives' star's favorite.
Kyle Richards — currently making waves for her cheeky Instagram comment on country singer Morgan Wade's latest video — has been in front of the cameras since she was a child, but somehow hasn't seemed to age since at least her first appearance on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills when the show premiered in 2010. The star maintains her youthful looks in a number of ways, one of them being clear dedication to a longtime skincare routine. Among her many product recommendations to her followers is one that she calls her "favorite" sunscreen — Supergoop! SPF 40 Glowscreen, a 3-in-1 multitasker that protects skin from UV rays, moisturizes from the inside out and helps create a dewy look as a makeup primer. You can score a tube for yourself for $38 at Amazon to help get ready for the summer sun.
The Beverly Hills babe called Supergoop! Glowscreen her 'favorite' sunscreen, sharing it as an essential part of any beach day.
On an Instagram Reel, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star shared what her beach day essentials are — and that included Supergoop!'s SPF 40 sunscreen. Let's check in with Kyle to see why she loves Supergoop! Glowscreen so very much: "[It's] my favorite sunscreen — 40 SPF — Supergoop! Glowscreen. It has slight coverage, a pretty color, and gives you some shimmer." This is far from the only Supergoop! product Ms. Richards depends on to keep her skin looking ageless. She also called out Supergoop!'s Glow Stick on an Amazon Live video noting that, much like the Glowscreen, it gave a glowy, shimmery appearance. (By the way — if you want to check out more skincare wonders from Supergoop!, take a peek at our review of their Play sunscreen.)
Supergoop! Glowscreen is famously multitasking, protecting skin from multiple environmental factors while also working as a makeup-gripping primer and moisturizer. The blend of clean chemical active ingredients in this SPF 40 helps to protect skin against UVA and UVB rays and even filter blue light, both important in preventing the visible signs of aging on our bodies.
As a primer, the sunscreen is also a hard worker: the hydrating formula, made with hydrating hyaluronic acid along with niacinamide and Vitamin B5, helps to perfect the skin's appearance, creating a dewy base layer for any makeup look — you can even go makeup-free! The hyaluronic acid helps permeate the top layer of skin to moisturize from the inside out, leaving your exterior supple, soft and nourished. Sea lavender is also in the mix for a light, lovely fragrance, and helps to provide antioxidant protection and support continuous hydration.
And we didn't forget the shimmer! The pearlescent properties of Supergoop! Glowscreen lends skin a natural-looking glow, perfect for wearing alone or to elevate your makeup with a shot of illumination. Application is easy: apply generously and evenly as the last step in your skincare routine before doing any makeup, and presto! You're ready for a day of sun, fun and looking absolutely stunning.
Kyle isn't the only fan of Supergoop! Glowscreen — more than 6,000 Amazon reviewers have also given the sunscreen a sparkling five-star rating. "Love this product under foundation or alone... Goes on smoothly and the glow is just right for a no makeup day at the beach," raved one convert.
Mature users have also found a lot to adore with the Glowscreen. "I am in my 70s and have been so pleased to find serums and moisturizers that give my face a glow, but the minute I add sunscreen the glow is [usually] gone," lamented one, adding, "This product actually enhances it!!!"
"The formula is lightweight and absorbs quickly, leaving no white cast or residue behind," shared a user. "I’ve worn it under makeup and during intense outdoor activities, and it has held up remarkably well. It doesn’t clog pores or cause breakouts, which is a huge plus for someone with sensitive skin like mine."
Another megafan also loved the glow factor: "This product is very glowy! It leaves the face moisturized and not cakey. The sheer tint in it really makes the face look radiant and 'fresh'. It is a bit pricey," they acknowledged, "but you don't need a lot for each application."
It may be on the pricier end of sunscreens, but you're also getting three products in one here: a sunblock, moisturizer and dewy makeup primer.
