Product description
Colorescience Total Protection® Body Shield Glow SPF 50 is a 100% mineral sunscreen for the body with high SPF 50 protection and a subtle, pearlescent glow. The formula helps protect the skin from UVA and UVB rays, blue light, infrared radiation, pollution and environment-induced oxidative stress.
The lightweight, fast-absorbing texture applies easily to the skin, does not leave a greasy or sticky feel and gives the body skin a radiant, healthy-looking finish. The pink pearlescent shimmer helps visually brighten the skin and give it a smoother, more polished finish. The product is suitable for daily use on all skin types, including sensitive skin.
Patented non-nano zinc oxide provides mineral protection against solar radiation, while antioxidants help neutralise free radicals and reduce signs of premature skin ageing. The formula is water resistant for up to 80 minutes, making it suitable for active days in the sun.
