Facial sunscreen (oil-free gel)

Description

Heliocare 360° Oil-Free Gel SPF50 is an ultra-light, mattifying facial sunscreen gel that provides high-level, full-spectrum protection against UVA, UVB, visible light and infrared-A. Formulated with Fernblock+ (an enhanced Polypodium leucotomos extract), an advanced filter system and potent antioxidant and DNA-repair complexes, it helps prevent and repair sun damage, photoageing and pigmentation. The feather-light, oil-free gel melts quickly into the skin, leaving a dry-touch, matte finish that controls shine without clogging pores, making it especially suitable for combination, oily and acne-prone skin while still being well tolerated by normal and sensitive skin.

Bnefits

  • High-level full-spectrum photoprotection with SPF50 and PA++++, defending against UVA, UVB, visible light and infrared-A.
  • Fernblock+ technology (enhanced Polypodium leucotomos extract) delivers powerful antioxidant and photoimmunoprotective activity to help prevent and repair photo-induced damage.
  • Advanced combination of chemical and mineral UV filters provides broad-spectrum, photostable protection with a cosmetically elegant feel.
  • Ultra-light, oil-free gel texture absorbs quickly, leaving a dry-touch, matte finish that helps control excess oil and shine.
  • Non-comedogenic and sebum-regulating, ideal for oily, combination and acne-prone skin without clogging pores.
  • Contains DNA-repair enzymes and antioxidant actives to help repair UV-induced DNA damage and limit premature skin ageing.
  • Subtle, very light tint that helps even out skin tone and minimise the risk of a white cast on most skin tones.
  • Tested under dermatological and ophthalmological control, suitable for daily use and sensitive skin.
  • Paraben-free, alcohol-free and vegan-friendly according to brand claims.

Usage

  • Ensure thorough coverage up to the hairline, over the ears and around the eyes, taking care not to get product into the eyes.

  • Reapply every 2 hours during periods of high or direct sun exposure, and always after sweating, swimming or towel-drying.
  • Use daily all year round, even on cloudy days and when primarily indoors but exposed to daylight through windows.
  • Combine with other sun-safety behaviours such as seeking shade, wearing protective clothing, hats and sunglasses, particularly during peak UV hours.

Adverse Effects

  • Fragrance components may trigger reactions in those with marked fragrance sensitivity.

Storage Conditions
