Next Generation Sunscreens

This is exciting news. Clinique has also launched new dermatologist-developed daily sunscreens for sensitive skin with broad spectrum protection and antioxidants that takes sun protection to the next level.

“The objective of the brand’s research and development team was to create suncare with skincare built in – that feels and looks so good you’ll want to use it every single day.”

UV Solutions protects against UVA and UVB rays and provides all-day antioxidant defense against skin-damaging free radicals – even after cleansing your face. SPF 50 protects against approximately 98% of UVB rays which are responsible for sunburn and skin cancer. It theoretically allows 50 times longer in the sun before burning compared to unprotected skin.

UV Solutions Hydrating Sunscreen SPF 50 is a weightless, daily hydrating sunscreen ideal for anyone with dry to normal skin.

UV Solutions Mattifying Sunscreen SPF50 contains skincare to help control excess shine all day and help unclog pores. It’s perfect for anyone with oily to combination skin.

All UV Solutions formulas are safe for sensitive skin, dermatologist developed, dermatologist tested, ophthalmologist tested, allergy tested, photo allergy tested, non-acnegenic and fragrance fee.

Quite often, applying sunscreen around the eyes can cause discomfort and sometimes eye watering. Clinique UV Solutions is ophthalmologist tested and safe for sensitive skin, including around the eyes, providing comfortable daily protection. Safe for contact lens wearers. Does not leave a white cast. Layers seamlessly under makeup.

A powerhouse blend of four antioxidants including vitamin E, provitamin D, lychee seed extract and rice bran extract work seamlessly to fight free radical damage that can lead to visible signs of skin aging.

Exclusive Picnic-themed Gift-With-Purchase Items

I love a good gift-with-purchase, and I can honestly say these two are really exciting. They would make a fantastic Mother’s Day gift.

    The colour of the blanket is so perfect for spring. I’ve been wearing sunscreen daily for years and people often think I’m younger than I am. Skin health is important.

    I can’t wait to try this new sunscreen. With my skin being so sensitive I’ve had some products over the years that irritate my skin. It’s the worst as you only notice once you’ve applied it all over then you try feverishly to get it off. I love how Clinique is always researching to expand their product line and make a product that will benefit everyone. Sun protection is so important especially since in Canada we try and be outside as much as possible over our short summer months.

    Unfortunately, skin cancer runs rampant in my family. We’ve had four cases over the years. I have ALWAYS been proactive and cautious with my skincare! The most effective tip I can give is to ALWAYS wear sunscreen if you’re going outside! Cloudy, cold, rainy, sunny…it makes no difference. Make it a habit, part of your morning skincare routine. It takes just a minute or two and will benefit you in the long run! @FountainKricket

    Skin cancer runs in my family. I am very proactive when it comes to protecting my skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Clinique is my go to skin care line. Their free products with purchase allows me to try new skincare and makeup items that I may not otherwise purchase.
