📽️ Watch Now: How to Wear Smidge SPF Under Makeup
If you’ve ever layered sunscreen under your makeup only to end up with pilling, patchiness, or that dreaded greasy shine—we feel you. Choosing the right SPF for your skin and your daily routine shouldn’t be a trade-off. That’s why we made Smidge.
In the video, our founder Nat shows you exactly how Smidge works under makeup—SPF that rubs in like a dream and actually works with your foundation.
Why Regular Sunscreens Don’t Always Work With Makeup
Most sunscreens are really greasy. Others leave a white cast or feel sticky—two things that don't pair well with primer or foundation. And for those of us with sensitive skin? The struggle is even more real.
Here’s what makes Smidge different...
Why Smidge Is Better for Makeup Wearers
🌿 Non-greasy formula
Our formula absorbs well and has a non-greasy finish—so your base goes on smoothly without sliding around.
🎨 No White Cast
No ghost face. Just a skin-blending SPF 40 that’s close to invisible on most skin tones.
🧖♀️ Lightweight Layers
Smidge doesn’t clog pores or pill. It absorbs quickly, making it perfect under makeup—even on humid or long days.
💚 Sensitive-Skin Friendly
No sting, no weird smells, and no harsh chemicals. Our customers with reactive or rosacea-prone skin rave about how calm and comfortable their face feels.
👜 Good to Go
Whether you're getting ready for work or packing light for a trip, Smidge simplifies your morning routine. Just a smidge is all you need.
