During the day, your sunblock loses its potency because of ingredients wearing down, sweat, touching or wiping your face and plenty of other daily activities.
In order to prevent your skin from tanning, you need to top-up your sun protection by reapplying sunscreen on exposed areas. But this reapplication gets overlooked as it is not exactly convenient to reapply sunscreen especially over foundation or your make-up.
Enter SPF Top-Up Loose Powder- Sandiva’s unique solution to this everyday problem- just dab on like a compact or any finishing powder for lightweight coverage but heavy duty sun-protection.

What’s different about the Sandiva SPF Top-up Loose Powder?
While loose powder is often used as just a setting powder that holds makeup in place, the Sandiva SPF Top-up Loose Powder goes far beyond that. It protects your skin from bacteria and UV rays, and even against harmful blue light that is emitted by your laptop screen! This loose powder blends into your skin tone and gives you a flawless soft-focus effect that lasts all day.
When should one use the SPF Top-up Loose Powder vs the One-and-Done Tinted Sunblock?
You can use the One and Done Tinted Sunblock as the main shield against the sun, and supplement it with the SPF Top up Loose Powder on those days when you’re going to be outdoors, want an extra finished look or need to keep touching up your face. The powder box conveniently fits into your bag so you can use it for any touch-ups throughout the day to refresh your skin and to stay protected from harmful UV rays.
Why is re-application important?
Your pores pump out oil that causes the sunscreen to smudge, leaving some areas more exposed than others. Additionally, rubbing, sweating or activities such as swimming could cause the sunblock to wear off from your skin. Hence, re-application is essential based on your lifestyle.
Does it blend with my skintone or will it leave a whitish residue?
The SPF Top-up Loose Powder comes in 3 shades to match your skintone. The Sandalwood in this product helps it blend right into your skin, making it bright and radiant, with sheer coverage and no whitish residue.
How much coverage does it provide?
The SPF Top-up Powder is formulated to work like a sheer veil that isn't heavy or cakey. It can act as the finishing touch of your daily makeup routine.
How does it work for dry vs oily skin?
Excess sebum is often the cause of acne. This SPF Top Up Powder absorbs the excess sebum without drying out the skin, making it a great option for oily skin.

Is it long lasting? How often does it need to be topped up?
