PSA: SPF is not just for summer, it’s a 365 skincare essential

Say it with me: the absence of sunshine does not equate to the absence of UV rays.

With the warm glow of summer drifting away in the rearview mirror, we’re all busy getting ourselves ready for the autumn/winter seasons ahead. However, though we may be vacuum-packing our summer dresses for another year, now is not the time to retire our trustee SPF.

Each and every year, plenty of people make the mistake of thinking that using an SPF is only required when the sun is shining, which is a myth that has long been debunked. We must be conscious of harmful UVA and UVB rays all year round, and protect our skin from their effects day in and day out.

For this reason, we refuse to leave the house without applying a layer of Skingredients® Skin Shield SPF 50 PA+++.

From the Skingredients® range created by award-winning skincare expert, dermal facialist, skin tutor and bestselling author Jennifer Rock, this product is far more than just an SPF. A broad-spectrum skincare essential, the Skin Shield is deeply moisturising, has a peachy tint so that it can be worn underneath make-up or on its own, and leaves you feeling refreshed and looking dewy.

Sitting perfectly under make-up with zero pill, think of this product as a lightweight mineral parasol that will shield your skin from damaging UVA and UVB rays, blue light emitted from both the sun and our screens, pollution and infrared waves.

The ideal priming base, the formula contains niacinamide and vitamin E for the antioxidant protection against pesky environmental aggressors. It is non-comedogenic, oil-free, water-resistant and non-greasy, and what’s more, there’s no need to stress about a chalky white cast and photo flashback.

Paring things back to the absolute essentials, the Skin Shield is part of the Skingredients® ‘Key 4’ active-driven, clinically-proven products, which also includes the PreProbiotic Cleanse cleanser, Skin Veg Hyaluronic Acid serum, and Skin Protein Anti-Ageing Retinoid Serum. Plus, each product comes in a durable outer container, and can be refilled time and again with insertable tubes.
