Clarins SPF50 Daily Sunscreen Primer

2 min read

I’ve asked many beauty experts their key anti-ageing advice, and almost all of them have replied with one word: sunscreen. The sun, as wonderful as it is, causes our skin no end of problems.

We do need a dose of Vitamin D, but if you want to keep the wrinkles at bay, then that feeling of the sun on your face should only happen if you have a good sunscreen on.

And that’s where Clarins new UV Plus Anti-Pollution SPF50 Day Screen Multi Protector comes in. After the success of their UV 40 Day Screen, Clarins goes one step further and offers an even more powerful skin care product to protect not only from UV, but from pollution as well – another skin aggressor – making it ideal for women in the city. And, as you apply it over your daily skincare, it acts like a primer, for your makeup.

With plant-powered mutli-protection, it’s specifically designed to be compatible with all skin care and make-up products. It’s an incredibly fine, transparent texture that is quick and easy to apply.

The Day Screen is reinforced with antioxidant protection thanks to organic Alpine sanicle extract. Say, again? Yep, the Alpine sanicle is a delicate plant that grows in high altitudes in the Alps, a pure environment, far from any urban pollution.

At the heart of the formula, organic Alpine sanicle extract helps protect the skin by reinforcing its natural defences against the harmful effects of pollution and UV by encouraging the expression of specific proteins called SPRRs which play a key role in the skin’s primary defense system. The UV Plus also contains  antioxidant, canteloupe melon extract, organic blackcurrant extract, and hyaluronic acid.  The special anti-pollution complex in the UV Plus is made up of white tea, succory dock-cress, rhodiola, venuceane and glycofilm, creating an environmental shield for your skin.

You apply this daily after your moisturiser, and follow with makeup.
