The cream helps protect the skin from signs of premature ageing caused by UV radiation, blue light, infrared radiation, air pollution and glycation processes. The formula contains non-nano zinc oxide, squalane and hyaluronic acid, which simultaneously protect, hydrate and help maintain the skin's barrier.

It helps soothe the skin, reduce feelings of discomfort and protect the skin from external irritants.

Effect
Medik8 Physical Sunscreen SPF50 provides high daily protection against UVA and UVB radiation while helping protect the skin from other environmental factors that can contribute to premature skin ageing. Mineral zinc oxide forms an effective protective filter on the skin surface, while squalane and hyaluronic acid help maintain skin moisture levels and barrier function. The post-treatment complex with grape seed extract, green tea, bisabolol and allantoin helps calm the skin, reduce discomfort and support skin renewal processes after professional procedures. With regular use, the cream helps reduce the visible damage risk caused by UV radiation, protects the skin from dryness and helps maintain a calm, comfortable and healthier-looking complexion.
Usage
Each morning apply approximately ¼ teaspoon of Medik8 Physical Sunscreen SPF50 to the facial skin, using additional amount for the neck and décolletage. Apply generously 20 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply at least every 2 hours, and after swimming, sweating or towel drying. After professional procedures use according to the specialist's instructions. To ensure full protection, SPF should be used daily as the final step of the morning skincare routine.
