SPF Your Way with Luke

SPF Your Way with Luke

My 3 wishes in life are for sunbeds to be banned globally, to become a backing dancer for Beyonce, and to have bronzed glowing skin, without the skin damage. This year, one of those wishes came true. No Bey hasn’t hit me up yet - but the next best thing. Ultra Violette dropped their Super Glow Drops SPF 50, allowing me to fool my friends into thinking I have naturally flawless bronzed skin! As you know we don’t gate-keep at Ultra Violette, so keep reading and thank me later. 

First and foremost, it’s important you start with a strong base to ensure those pesky UV rays aren’t going to impact your skin health. This is why Supreme Screen SPF 50+ Hydrating SKINSCREEN™ is my summer staple. Supreme not only provides broad-spectrum protection but also enough hydration to give my moisturiser the boot this season, saving me time in the morning.  

Now, when it comes to SPF application I don’t wanna see any scrimping, only applying a pea-sized amount (which is my biggest skin ick). I want to see the full recommended application – ¼ teaspoon (5 pumps/20c sized piece) to ensure that full protection and hydrated glowing skin. Trust me, you will thank us in the future.  

The secret to taking this hydrated skin up a notch and achieving that bronzy glow is to add a few drops of the Bronzing Super Glow Drops SPF 50. I like to use 3-4 drops and mix them into my Supreme, and before you shout at me – yes, I know mixing things with your SPF is a big no-no. But Vi has changed the game by designing and testing these SPF 50 drops to ensure they won’t mess with your UV protection. So don’t you worry! 

With your SPF base on point, it’s time to get creative! Next up are the Illuminating Super Glow Drops SPF 50. AKA my secret weapon. With this serum, I find less is more. The aim is to fool everyone into thinking you are born gifted with glow, so I blend out a drop on each cheekbone, softly buffing up and out towards my temple with my finger. The secrets don’t stop there though - for anyone that has slightly hooded eyes like me, I blend the tiniest amount on my brow bone too, to open that eye area up. Trust me give it a go; they will never know!  

With my skin now complete, I’m ready to fool the girls at brunch. But there’s one more step to turn any look into a “10 10 10’s across the board” (that one’s for my Beyonce fans, you're welcome). After all that hard work, I can’t have dry lips letting the team down! So, I lock everything in and protect my pout with a Sheen Screen SPF 50 Hydrating Lip Balm. There are 6 shades to choose from so you can coordinate your glossy lip to your outfit. Choc Top is normally my go-to for a warm neutral - but now we’re into the summer season I’m switching things up and going with Smoothie for a subtle pink pop of colour. 

And I’m done! Follow my 3 sneaky steps to keep your friends guessing your skin secrets all day. I hope my wisdom allows you to go slay the day to continue being the superstar that you are. 

XOXO Luke
