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.

    Always 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!

    Sunscreen 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.

    Here’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.

    Avoid spending too much time outside in peak UV hours between 11 am and 2 pm, whenever possible. Look for shade, wear SPF, hydrate, enjoy your day safely 🙂
