High-Performance Daily Protection
A 100% mineral tinted sunscreen for normal to dry skin, combining broad-spectrum SPF 40 protection with a sheer, complexion-enhancing tint that helps unify skin tone and supports a natural finish, alongside antioxidant defence against UV, pollution, and blue light.
High-Performance Daily Protection targeting Oxidative Aging™
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 micronized mineral filters. The moisturizing base helps maintain hydration throughout the day, while the antioxidant complex targets Oxidative Aging™, 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.

Apply generously and evenly to face, neck, and chest 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply as needed or after swimming, washing, towel drying or heavy perspiring.
Caution: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, eyelids and mucous membranes. Keep out of reach of children. Prior to use on children under 6 months of age, consult a physician.
Micronized Zinc Oxide: A safe, micro-fine mineral that offers broad-spectrum protection from both UVA (aging) 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 (aging) 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 moisturizing 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 neutralizes 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.

Sheer Hydration Versatile Tint addresses a common compromise in tinted SPF: the trade-off between protection quality, cosmetic finish, and hydration. Micronized 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 Aging™ 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 aging.
Sheer Hydration Broad Spectrum SPF 40 (Versatile Tint) is part of AlumierMD's Core 4 Essentials, designed to target the visible signs of aging driven by Oxidative Aging™. Its antioxidant complex including ELIX-IR™, Physavie®, Resveratrol, and Glutathione, defends against HEV blue light, infrared radiation, and pollution alongside broad-spectrum UV protection, supporting long-term skin radiance and resilience with every application.
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.
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.

"This gives me sun protection and coverage to even out my skin in one step. I am fair skinned and need sun protection daily. I didn't realize how nice it would be to also have a product that gives me an even skin tone at the same time. I never used foundation but find I love the results of using a lightly tinted product. I have extremely sensitive skin and like a 2 in 1, less steps equals less time prepping in the morning."
