In the summer, you should always have sunscreen on hand. UV rays can cause photoaging and hyperpigmentation, and not just when you’re on vacation at the beach. But which facial sunscreen should you choose?
Face sunscreens are divided into creams:
Which one is best for you depends on your skin type, your susceptibility to allergies, and your age. You should also decide whether you prefer products based on natural or synthetic ingredients.
Chemical filters are synthetic derivatives of acids designed to absorb harmful UV rays before they penetrate the skin. However, studies have shown that chemical filters can damage the skin and are even linked to carcinogenic effects. That is why an alternative has emerged on the market.
Mineral filters are a relatively new product, so their formula is constantly being improved. The main change is in their texture.
Until recently, these were thick, heavy formulas that were difficult to spread. However, the latest products are lightweight, absorb easily, and don’t leave stains. One of their key advantages is that they’re made with natural ingredients that are gentle on the skin. For this reason, they’re used by both people with sensitive or allergy-prone skin and those who care about the environment.
They are often more expensive than chemical filters, but they are safer for both you and the aquatic ecosystem—for example, if you want to go swimming. They work by reflecting sunlight rather than absorbing it.
Eco-friendly sunscreens with high-quality ingredients are a hit in Phenomé’s summer lineup.
To ensure comprehensive protection, we offer a facial sunscreen and a body lotion.
The PROTECTIVE SPF30 sunscreen line effectively protects your skin from the harmful effects of strong sunlight, whether you’re at the beach, in the city, or in the mountains.
PROTECTIVE SPF 30 Face Sunscreen is a water-resistant 2-in-1 mineral sunscreen. Not only does it create an effective barrier against UVA and UVB rays, but it also moisturizes and nourishes the skin. Organic butters and oils protect the skin from drying out, even in the hottest weather. Organic shea butter, jojoba oil, almond oil, and coconut oil provide these benefits. We’ve combined four high-quality oils with active ingredients that have antioxidant properties and help slow down skin aging. You’ll find it easy and pleasant to apply, thanks to its light texture and beautiful scent. You can also use it under makeup.
UV protection for the body is just as important. So reach for a protective SPF 30 body sunscreen. Based on a formula similar to PROTECTIVE, this water-resistant formula also protects the skin from both UVA and UVB rays. In addition to mineral filters, the formula also contains soothing shea butter and antioxidant-rich jojoba and macadamia oils. It’s perfect for sailors, surfers, and… kids <
Sun protection is essential for maintaining youthful, healthy-looking skin free of discoloration. However, even when using the best mineral sunscreen, spending the whole day in direct sunlight can dry out your skin. That’s why it’s important to pay special attention to moisturizing creams during the summer. Apply your favorite Phenomé cream in the morning and evening, drink plenty of water, wear a hat, and enjoy the warm days!
