Will foundation protect me from the sun?

In contradiction to most myths, most foundations don't in fact have a sun protection factor in them, unless they specifically say so. But as a make-up artist and now with my own brand, I know to look out for titanium dioxide as an ingredient in foundation because that is a mineral for sun protection factor. So even though your foundation may not specifically say that it has an sun protection factor in it, if it has titanium dioxide the foundation has got a little bit of a sun protection factor and that will be around a four or a six, which to be honest, still isn't enough. So bare that in mind when you hear myths like that.
