I tried the tinted SPF Holly Willoughby's makeup artist swears by - and it made me glow

While on the set of Celebrity Bear Hunt in the hot climate of Costa Rica, 's makeup guru, Patsy O'Neill, divulged that she used on the famous presenter, reports . Offering hefty sun protection and a radiant finish and light texture, it ensured Holly's face stayed both shielded and TV-ready amid the intense filming schedule.

Tempted by how impeccable her skin appeared - and my own battles with makeup sliding over SPF - I tested the myself. Regularly priced at a steep £38 and sold by upscale shops like , some colours are now snagging a bargain for £26.60 at , so it's a good time to see if your match is reduced.

It doesn't contain any silicones, oils and alcohols, which the brand says makes it suitable for all skin types, including my sensitive and eczema-prone skin.

If you're looking for an ultra-lightweight daily SPF, I'm also a massive fan of . Priced at £38, it boasts the lightest, non-pilling formula I've encountered.

For those seeking a more wallet-friendly alternative, the is currently reduced to £16.80 from its original price of £21 and provides a similar lightweight invisible finish. If you're in search of something that can be worn on its own, .
