If you’re anything like us, when you pay for a skincare product, you want it to do more than just one thing – especially when it comes to SPF.
The Tatcha Milky Sunscreen SPF 50+ delivers just that, designed to protect the skin from harmful UV rays while visibly correcting past sun damage like dark spots, visible redness and fine lines, going beyond just future-proofing your skin.
Lightweight and milky for instant absorption, this Tatcha sunscreen boasts broad spectrum SPF 50+ / UVA & UVB rays / PA++++ protection to help defend the skin from damage and premature ageing.
Made using transparent sun filters and milky-light on the skin, it seamlessly blends into the skin to bring incredible protection but without any white marks, instead leaving behind an enviable glow and natural radiance.
After just two weeks the Milky Sunscreen was proven to help visibly improve fine lines, redness and dark spots, while 96 per cent of users agreed their skin felt calm and soothed
Not only does it help protect against damage, but it also visibly corrects UV damage and reduces dark spots, while including vitamin E and encapsulated ectoin to provide moisturising comfort and support to the skin’s natural barrier.
This makes the sunscreen an excellent choice for those with dry, stressed or sensitive skin as it delivers quenching protection and barrier repair without stinging or sensitivity.
Finally, Okinawa Aloe works to calm areas of dryness and irritation, leaving the skin feeling comfortably supple and glowing from the inside out.
But what sets this gentle yet effective Milky Sunscreen apart from the rest is its visible results, where in a clinical study on 30 participants, 100 per cent showed an immediate improvement in moisturisation and skin barrier instantly after use.
Better still, after two weeks the Milky Sunscreen was proven to help visibly improve fine lines, redness and dark spots, while 96 per cent of users agreed their skin felt calm and soothed.
Not only does it help protect against damage, but also works to help visibly correct UV damage and reduce dark spots, too
We also love that the sunscreen has been made without parabens, synthetic fragrances, mineral oil, sulfate detergents, phthalates, urea, DEA or TEA, designed to be non-comedogenic, dermatologist tested and cruelty-free.
And despite being a new release from the brand, users already can't get enough of it, rating it 4.9 total stars, raving about the ‘amazing milky formula’ and calling it the ‘best sunscreen’.
‘I have not tried a sunscreen that feels non-greasy but so hydrating at the same time like this one!’ Raved one impressed reviewer.
‘I love Tatcha’s sunscreen because the milky formula feels like a serum and it doesn’t clog my pores! It also doesn’t leave a white cast! I’m so impressed, definitely my new favourite sunscreen for all year!’
Another added: ‘I’ve been loving the Tatcha The Milky Sunscreen SPF 50 lately. The texture is super lightweight and milky, so it absorbs quickly without feeling greasy or heavy on my skin. It gives a natural, hydrated finish and layers beautifully under makeup.’
My thoughts:
With a trip to Japan in my near future, it seemed only right to try out a new formula from much-loved Japanese skincare brand Tatcha – makers of the iconic Dewy Skin Cream and proprietors of gorgeously glowy skin.
And surprise surprise, I loved this new formula just as much as Tatcha’s other dewy products, if not more.
As someone with dry and sensitive skin, I was pleased to discover that this sunscreen simply felt comforting and comfortable on my skin
Lightweight and milky but by no means lacking in deep moisture, this gorgeous sunscreen applies like a dream to the skin, soaking in within seconds to leave it feeling quenched and hydrated without an ounce of greasiness.
It also blends out without any white cast, instead leaving a wonderful natural, smoothing radiance that lasts all day on the skin, making it a gorgeous choice for the summer months.
As someone with dry and sensitive skin, I was pleased to discover that this sunscreen simply feels comforting and comfortable on my skin, and despite being incredibly hydrating, it still feels super lightweight.
Because who has time for that thick, greasy feel some SPFs give? Not me.
Instead this Tatcha sunscreen leaves me with a silky, fresh finish that looks like I’ve just stepped out the spa, with a plump, lit-from-within glow to match.

The milky formula also layers beautifully with my other skincare and makeup products, the latter applying without an ounce of pilling of lifting. This sunscreen takes my makeup to the next level, in truth, glowing through my foundation for a fresh-faced look.
And the SPF 50+ protection? As a pale girl, I can’t ask for more when it comes to intense, year-round protection.
Needless to say, the Tatcha Milky Sunscreen has now become my new favourite lightweight, everyday formula, delivering all the hydration, comfort and dewiness you could ask for.
