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.
