Face and body sunscreen – how to choose

A good sunscreen protects against UVB rays, which can burn the skin, and UVA rays, which penetrate deeply and cause premature skin ageing, even on cloudy days. The body and face sunscreens and Daily Sun Shield absorb quickly without leaving a greasy or white residue, so you'll want to use them every day.

• Sunscreen Body (Sunscreen Body) with SPF 30 or 50 is easy to apply and can be used by all skin types.
• Sunscreen Face (Sunscreen Face) with SPF 30 or 50 can be used instead of day cream in the morning and under makeup.
• Daily Sun Shield SPF 50 (Daily Sun Shield SPF 50) has a light, milky texture and does not clog pores. It is particularly good for oily and blemish-prone skin and skin prone to redness, and it withstands both sweat and sand.
• Sun Stick (Sun Stick) is for the small areas you can easily forget: the tip of your nose, ears, lips, hair parting and backs of your hands. It is small enough for your pocket and ski jacket.

Sunscreen with SPF 30 or 50?

The SPF tells you how well the sunscreen protects against UVB rays. The higher the number, the better the protection. SPF 50 is a good choice if you have fair skin, get red easily or will be in the sun for many hours. SPF 30 may be enough for everyday use. Whatever the SPF, you need to use plenty, as a thin layer offers less protection than the number on the tube promises.

Fragrance-free sunscreen for sensitive skin

All our sunscreens are fragrance-free, vegan and dermatologically tested. The body and face sunscreens and Daily Sun Shield are also free from silicone and alcohol. They care for your skin while protecting it: organic oat extract strengthens the skin's natural protection, and ectoin, a naturally derived substance, helps the skin retain moisture. The sun is one of the main causes of premature skin ageing, so daily sunscreen on your face helps your skin retain its glow and even tone for longer. If you use vitamin A or acids, sunscreen in the morning is especially important.

How to use sunscreen

Apply sunscreen before going outside, and remember your ears, neck and feet. Reapply after swimming, sweating or drying yourself with a towel. On your face, sunscreen is the last step in your skincare routine, after day cream and before makeup. If you want to do it in one step, see our day cream with SPF, or read whether you can use sunscreen as day cream. If you're unsure what your skin needs for the rest of the day, you can find your routine. After a long day in the sun, you can moisturise your skin with after-sun.
