The sun may lift your spirits, but it can be harsh on your skin. Thankfully, today’s new generation of sun protection products goes beyond SPF to nourish, hydrate, and keep your complexion truly content under any light.
Invisible cover
B&B Labs’ Auto-Tone CC Suncare SPF30/PA++++ is an all-in-one colour-correcting sun protection designed to block UVB and UVA rays while protecting the skin from blue light, infrared rays, pollution and bad microbes.
Powered by 100% mineral UV filters (zinc oxide + titanium dioxide) in optimised particle sizes, the formula blends seamlessly into various skin tones.
Ectoin, a natural extremolyte, protects skin from pollution and light-induced stress while niacinamide and tranexamic acid visibly improve uneven skin tone, dark spots and pigmentation.
