Ren Products - what do you use for SPF?

I'm thinking of moving from Eve Lom to Ren, starting with the moisturiser just because that's what I've run out of and moving eventually to the No 1 Purity Cleansing Balm with the Hydra Calm Global protection cream, but if I'm not mistaken they don't have any SPF in them.

Can anyone tell me what they use in combination with Ren stuff to ensure you are SPFed up?

Not specifically Ren (I'm a Nuxe girl myself), but I use this as sunscreen for my face. Hypoallergenic and very effective (French MIL swears by it). Though, if you can somehow get it from France, it's muchos cheaper (EUR 10 instead of £15)

Abs - Do you put it on before or after moisturising?

After.

good move to switch from Eve Lom to Ren, EL is full of silicones and mineral oils!

In terms of SPF why not use a foundation with spf in it?

MissFoodie - that's exactly the reason that I'm swapping! But wrt the foundation thing - good plan.... but I don't wear foundation everyday, but I do want SPF everyday hence the requirement to have it in a moisturiser or similar.

hhhmmm the problem with any decent sunscreen (ie non chemical) is that they always give you a whiteish tint....however green people sunscreen is good, plus unscented????

I think they may also do a moisturiser with spf in it too?
