What SPF is enough for daily face use under makeup?

SPF 30 is enough for daily face use under makeup. Higher SPFs offer only marginally more UVB protection (98% vs 97%), but they’re thicker, stickier, and more likely to pill. For daily commutes and office life, SPF 30 in a moisturizer or primer is the sweet spot — protective enough, layers well, and you’ll actually wear it. The key isn’t the number; it’s that you wear it.
