Tinted Sunscreen
Description
Heliocare 360 Colour Gel Oil-Free Bronze SPF50+ is an ultra-light, oil-free tinted sunscreen that combines high-level broad-spectrum photoprotection with natural foundation-style coverage. Formulated with Fernblock FC and advanced antioxidant and DNA-repair technologies, it provides SPF50+ and PA++++ protection against UVA/UVB, high-energy visible light (HEVL) and infrared-A, while helping to prevent photo-ageing and oxidative damage. The breathable gel-cream texture melts into the skin with a dry-touch, matte finish that evens tone, camouflages redness and imperfections, and is especially suited to normal, combination and oily or spot-prone skin.

- Retail unit intended for professional clinic dispensing and consumer retail use.
- Tube format designed for hygienic, travel-friendly and handbag-friendly daily use.
Usage
- Shake the tube gently before use if indicated by the manufacturer.
- Apply generously and evenly to clean, dry skin on the face (and neck if desired) as the last step in your skincare routine and before makeup.
- Use a sufficient amount to achieve the stated level of protection; as a guide, apply at least two full finger-lengths of product for the face and neck.
- Blend evenly, taking care around the hairline, jawline and ears to avoid demarcation lines.
- Apply 20 minutes before sun exposure to allow an even film to form on the skin.
- Reapply every 2 hours during periods of direct sun exposure, and always after swimming, sweating or towel drying.
- For dry skin types, apply a suitable moisturiser underneath if additional hydration is needed.
- Avoid direct contact with eyes; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
- Use daily all year round, even on cloudy days and during incidental daylight exposure such as commuting.
- As with all sunscreens, do not rely solely on the product for sun protection; combine with shade, clothing, hats and sunglasses, especially during peak UV hours.
Contraindications
- Do not use in individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to any of the ingredients.
- Discontinue use if irritation, redness or persistent discomfort occurs and consult a healthcare professional.
- Not intended for application on broken or actively infected skin unless directed by a healthcare professional.

Storage Conditions
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of heat.
