Pharmacist advice

The labelled SPF 30 protection is achieved only when enough product is applied. A practical guide for the face, neck and ears is approximately two finger lengths of sunscreen.

SPF 30 may suit everyday city use and brief or moderate exposure. SPF 50+ is generally preferred for very fair skin, frequent sunburn, pigmentation concerns, high UV levels, beach holidays or prolonged exposure.

Apply sunscreen as the final morning skincare step. Allow several minutes before foundation so the protective layer is not moved or applied unevenly.

Renew protection approximately every two hours during intensive outdoor exposure and after swimming, sweating, towel drying or repeatedly touching the face.

The formula contains fragrance and isopropyl palmitate. Highly reactive or very congestion-prone skin should assess individual tolerance before regular use.

Consistent high-factor protection and regular reapplication are particularly important when using retinoids, exfoliating acids, dark-spot treatments or after dermatological procedures.
