We have a complicated Relationship with the sun. It infuses us with vitamin D and brightens our days and moods. At the same time, the sun prematurely ages our skin and harmful rays can cause long term damage. The peacemaker is our UV Defiance SPF 50+ Lotion!
IT COMBATS AGEING AND SUN DAMAGE
SPF is a non-negotiable. From fine lines to sunspots, pigmentation and long-term cell damage, sun exposure can be very harmful and the risk of skin cancer through sun exposure is very real, which is why we recommend getting skin checks from your dermatologist every year. When spending time in the sun, we need to protect our skin so we can enjoy the outdoors. SPF is just one component of being sun smart. Not to scare you into becoming an SPF addict, but by the age of 70, two in three Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer. That’s why we are all about SPF all year round!
AN ESSENTIAL FOR ALL SKIN TYPES
If you have sensitive skin, our UV Defiance SPF 50+ lotion is your new skin BFF. It is preservative and fragrance free making it is suitable for children as well. It is fast absorbing and does not contain chemicals that damage ocean reefs. Ideal for your face and body, this lightweight formula is non-ghosting. If you have dry skin, our SPF contains the hydrating properties of Aloe Vera and Vitamin E and is a beautiful base for under make up.
SPF RATING BREAKDOWN
If SPF ratings are confusing, you’re not alone. We will break it down for you. SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor and is a measurement for how long your skin will be protected from the sun before burning. It’s personal – but based on a universal formula! Our UV Defiance SPF 50+ lotion will protect your skin for 50 times longer than you would burn without any protection.
THE APPLICATION PROCESS
After moisturising your face, apply your sunscreen. It acts like a primer for your makeup, allowing for a smooth base. You should always apply SPF at least 20 minutes before going outside. Our SPF protects you for 4 hours. We do, however, recommend reapplying every 2 hours especially if you are swimming or exercising. As our product is non-ghosting, you won’t have that white shadow to fuss over when reapplying over makeup.
