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.

    Make sure that the sunscreen you’re buying is broad spectrum so that it protects you from both UVA and UVB.

    Hi Dave. What a beautiful summer giveaway. The picnic basket, blanket and sunglasses set you up for a beautiful day outside. That’s my biggest beef with sunscreen when it gets in my eyes it’s so painful and annoying. When it comes to sunscreen there is no one better than you to get advice from. Good luck everyone 🍀🤞🏻💚💛🤍 #CliniquePicnicBlanketSunglasses #davelackie #Clinique

    Hello Dave,

    I’d love that hydrating sunscreen. So many of the sunscreens feel like they dry out the skin. My face feels like I’ve slapped wallpaper paste on it. Tight and dry, yuck!

    Always use sunscreen, wear a hat and definitely wear your sunglasses to protect your eyes. Keep your sunscreen available to re-apply if you plan to be outdoors extra long!

    Daily use of UVA/UVB sunscreen whether rain or shine is my #1 sun protection tip for summer. Apply and reapply as necessary. It’s a part of my regular everyday routine.
