Shielding your skin from the sun is one of the most important steps in any beauty routine. From skincare to makeup, today’s products are designed to offer both style and serious protection.
Anti-ageing sun protection
The Youth-Extending Daily Hydrating Fluid SPF 50 from Paula’s Choice is a feather-light anti-ageing facial moisturiser for normal to oily skin that provides effective UVA/UVB protection.
It also provides hydration for a healthier, younger-looking complexion, protecting the skin from visible signs of ageing thanks to a potent antioxidant-enriched formula that fights environmental stressors.

Light as air
Tatcha’s The Silk Sunscreen SPF 50 serves as the final step in any daytime skincare routine.
This mineral SPF is light-as-air, silky to the touch and completely sheer on all skin tones.
Enhanced with zinc oxide and fortified with hyaluronic acid, silk extract and niacinamide, this hybrid formula protects against UVA/UVB rays and pollution while boosting hydration and skin barrier strength.
Luminous and hydrating
KraveBeauty’s Beet The Sun SPF is a lightweight sunscreen that feels like second skin and is powered by internationally recognised UV filters, delivering broad-spectrum protection that blends seamlessly into skin.
It has no white cast, does not irritate the skin and is supercharged with upcycled beetroot extract, a powerful antioxidant that goes beyond sun protection to fight oxidative stress.
A multi-molecular hyaluronic acid complex and beta oat glucan deeply hydrates and strengthens the skin barrier.
Silky smooth formula
Laneige’s Perfect Renew 5D Sun Protector Essence offers SPF50+ PA++++ protection in a breathable finish that wears well under makeup.
The silky, no-white-cast texture product safeguards skin against UV rays and photo ageing built to transform skin over time.
Additionally, triple pro-collagen peptide helps to visibly tighten pores to firm the skin from within and patented anti-ageing ingredient RE.D Flavonoid boosts the skin’s inner radiance.

Natural-looking finish
The Ordinary recently launched the UV Filters SPF 45 Serum – a serum-textured sunscreen offering broad-spectrum SPF 45 protection against sun damage and premature skin ageing caused by sun exposure.
By providing both UVA and UVB coverage, this formulation protects against sun damage and reduces premature skin ageing caused by the sun.
Lightweight and white cast-free, it is also compatible with other makeup and skincare products to allow for easy layering.
It also offers instant and all-day hydration support, is non-comedogenic (does not clog pores), and provides skin with a natural-looking luminous finish.
