5 affordable Supergoop dupes

The brand Supergoop has gone from strength to strength since its launch in 2007.

In today’s world we all know the importance of wearing SPF every single day, both for our skin’s health and for our looks.

Back in 2007 SPF wasn’t as widely prioritized which is what Supergoop set out to change.

They created sunscreen designed for daily use which would actually be appealing to use, unlike most thick and heavy SPFs at the time.

Nowadays they have a number of cult products which so many people use as part of their daily skin care routine to protect from the sun’s harmful UV rays.

Two of the most popular products from the brand are the Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40 and the Supergoop Glowscreen SPF 40.

Even though they are some of the best sunscreens around, you still might be looking for a good Supergoop dupe.

This is because they are on the pricey side, as both of these products retail for $38 USD (or £32 / €33.90) for the standard size 50ml tubes.

Bank accounts around the world will be relieved to know that there is a Supergoop dupe for each of these products which costs a lot less.

The Supergoop dupe list

Scroll down to see every good Supergoop dupe, including Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen dupes and Supergoop Glowscreen dupes.

Why is Supergoop so popular?

People love Supergoop because their sunscreens don’t leave a white cast so they can be used on lots of different skin tones.

Even if you have dark skin, SPF is a must as you still need sun protection.

The Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen dupe list

Supergoop’s Unseen Sunscreen is a clear sunscreen with SPF 40 and the added bonus of a number of skincare nutrients.

These include red algae to protect against blue light, and meadowfoam oil for hydration.

It applies clear and can be worn alone or under makeup where it works well as a primer.

These are the best Unseen Sunscreen dupes available today.

Trader Joe’s Daily Facial Sunscreen SPF 40

Price: $8.99 for 50ml

This Supergoop dupe went viral on social media when it was launched and sold out at Trader Joe’s for months.

Luckily you can often pick it up on eBay if you can’t find it in store.

Trader Joe’s Facial Sunscreen is an amazing Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen dupe.

Just like Supergoop, it has an oil-free formula and leaves no sign of any whitish cast on the skin.

The active ingredients of the Trader Joe’s dupe are almost identical too.

This is an incredible Supergoop dupe, and the biggest difference between the two is the price tag.

Trader Joe’s Unseen Sunscreen dupe is just a fraction of the price of the real thing from Supergoop.

Trader Joe’s Daily Facial Sunscreen SPF 40 is also available in Trader Joe’s stores

Kroger Sunscreen Invisible Gel SPF 40

Price: $11.49 for 89ml

Like the Trader Joe’s sunscreen, this Kroger sunscreen is also an incredible dupe for Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen.

Again, the active ingredients are extremely similar and the formula is too.

The Kroger Supergoop dupe leaves the same velvety feel as Supergoop’s sunscreen and will not leave you with a greasy shine on your skin.

It works just as well as a makeup primer as the real deal and has the same level of UV protectant in it, making it a pretty much perfect dupe.

This is also a really affordable dupe that is a fraction of the cost of Supergoop.

Black Girl Sunscreen Make it Matte SPF 45

Price: $17.99 for 50ml

This is another great Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen dupe that costs less than the real deal.

One of the things people love about Supergoop is that it leaves no white cast on the skin.

Black Girl Sunscreen is designed for darker skin tones and also has no white cast whatsoever.

The ingredients are very similar and the texture is also the same.

Black Girl Sunscreen leaves a silky matte finish which is great if you have oily skin and find Supergoop’s Unseen Sunscreen a little too dewy for your liking.

The Supergoop Glowscreen dupe list

Glowscreen by Supergoop is a tinted SPF that doubles as a makeup primer.

It currently comes in four shades, Sunrise, Dawn, Sunset and Golden Hour, that leave you with a dewy finish.

There are some nice skin-friendly ingredients too including hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and vitamin B5.

These are the best Glowscreen dupes available today. 

e.l.f. Suntouchable Woah Glow Sunscreen SPF 30

Price: $14 for 50ml

This affordable Supergoop dupe is also a sunscreen and primer hybrid with a tint.

It currently comes in three different shades and is clearly intended to be a Supergoop Glowscreen dupe.

The obvious difference aside from the price is the lower SPF in the Elf sunscreen but other than that they are extremely similar.

Elf’s Supergoop dupe contains hydrating squalane, aloe and hyaluronic acid making it a good option for dry skin

It’s a great dupe because the glowy finish is so similar to Glowscreen’s and once blended in on the skin they look almost identical.

Sun Bum Glow 30

Price: $18.49 for 59ml

This is another good dupe for Supergoop Glowscreen.

Sun Bum Glow 30 is a tinted formula as well which leaves a glowy, dewy finish on the skin.

The overall effect is so similar to Glowscreen so if you love that dewy finish but don’t want to spend so much on Supergoop’s product this is much more affordable.

Despite having a glowy finish it has quick absorption and dries down nicely without leaving a greasy residue.

Any Supergoop sunscreen is a good investment for your skin as they provide broad-spectrum SPF with non-sticky formulas and no white cast.

However you can get a really good Supergoop dupe in drugstores and grocery stores which has similar active and inactive ingredients.

The finished product when applied to the skin for any of these Supergoop dupes is incredibly similar.

The only difference is generally the price as a Supergoop dupe is a lot cheaper.
