The best sun protection is the one that gets worn, and for a lot of people that means one that replaces their base. This is three steps in one, which is why it is our most popular item by order count. It is not a substitute for a dedicated SPF on a beach day, but for ordinary weekdays it does the job.

Key actives
| Active | What it does | Why we use it |
|---|---|---|
| Mineral and chemical UV filtersZinc Oxide, Avobenzone, Octisalate | A trio giving broad-spectrum SPF 30 across UVA and UVB. | The blend keeps the texture light enough to wear as a base, which all-mineral formulas struggle with. |
| Vitamin CAscorbyl Glucoside | Antioxidant protection against environmental pollutants and free radical damage. | Adds a preventive layer on top of the sun protection, which matters for urban exposure. |
| SqualaneSqualane | Non-comedogenic hydration that lasts through the day. | It is the moisturiser half of the product, and why this works as a single step. |
