Clinique National Picnic Day at Shoppers Blog Giveaway
Happy National Picnic Day! I’m celebrating with a special Clinique giveaway that includes the brand’s first-ever picnic blanket gift-with-purchase, first-ever sunglasses gift-with-purchase and two NEW sunscreens called UV Solutions. It’s everything you need to plan a stylish and skin-safe picnic coast-to-coast. Click on the entry link at the bottom of this post and follow the instructions for your chance to win. I’ll draw one name at random on May 4th, 2026, from all those who enter.
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.
Clinique Picnic Blanket GWP
This stylish picnic blanket is a quilted, padded 4’ x 4’ blanket in a green and yellow plaid that rolls up compactly with a handle and hidden zip pocket.
Spend $75 on Clinique products at select Shoppers Beauty Boutique locations and it’s yours for free.
Clinique Sunglasses GWP
Add an extra dose of style to your picnic with these Clinique sunglasses. Fashioned in opaque Clinique green, these rectangular-shaped sunglasses boast yellow lens that protect from both UVA and UVB rays. You’ll even see the signature Clinique ‘C’ logo on the arms. The glasses come in a yellow glasses protective cover with a cleaning fabric square.
Spend $125 on Clinique products and you’ll also receive a pair of stylish Clinique sunglasses along with the picnic blanket.
These summer-themed gifts will be available from April 24th to May 3rd, while supplies last.
Shop Clinique online at shoppersdrugmart.ca and receive both gift-with-purchase items.

May 3, 2026 at 10:17 pmAlways wear sunscreen and put on more than you think is enough! Apply BEFORE you go outdoors (especially if you are going to the pool or beach) and reapply frequently when you are out. Use a sunscreen for your face that is specifically for your face to avoid irritation or breakouts. Don’t forget hands, fingers, feet & toes, lip balm with sunscreen for your lips and a hat!

May 3, 2026 at 9:23 pmSunscreen is vital for protecting the skin from UV radiation,
which causes skin cancer, premature aging and painful sunburns.
Daily use helps prevent melanoma by up to 50%.
Wear sunscreen every day, even on cloudy days and in winter.

May 3, 2026 at 3:43 amHere’s my #1 sun protection tip for summer…actually all year. I use UVA/UVB sunscreen whether rain or shine. Apply and reapply as necessary. It’s a part of my regular everyday routine.
