When and how to use sunscreen?

Finding the ideal face sunscreen against the sun's rays often seems like a puzzle, with SPF ratings, textures, and ingredients to consider. Yet, this daily habit remains the best anti-aging secret to prevent skin aging and maintain a radiant complexion. Here are the key criteria for choosing the right face sunscreen according to your skin type and needs.

Key takeaways

Choosing your face sunscreen primarily depends on knowing your skin type: an invisible fluid for oily skin, a rich and moisturizing texture for dry skin, mineral filters for sensitive skin, and an anti-spot treatment for mature skin. Whatever your profile, opt for a broad-spectrum SPF 50 with the UVA logo to protect yourself from both sunburn and premature aging. For application, integrate your sunscreen as the last step in your skincare routine, just before makeup, and apply a generous amount, reapplying every two hours in case of prolonged exposure. Finally, remember that UV rays are active all year round: face sunscreen is a daily, not seasonal, habit. To make the right choice, explore our high-protection sun range formulated in our laboratory in France, and let our customer service guide you if needed.

Identify your skin type for a perfect finish

Every face has unique needs. An ill-suited formula can spoil your user experience and the product's effectiveness.

Oily skin: Opt for a sun fluid or an invisible texture that doesn't clog pores.
Dry skin: Choose a rich moisturizing sunscreen to nourish the skin barrier.
Sensitive skin: Look for the "hypoallergenic" mention and turn to mineral filters.
Mature skin: Select an anti-spot sun treatment to target hyperpigmentation.

Understanding the Sun Protection Factor and filters

The SPF index primarily measures protection against UVB rays, which cause sunburn. For effective protection, check for the UVA logo surrounded by a circle, ensuring that the product protects against the causes of premature aging and skin cancers.
