Clear Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 30*
Our protective daily sunscreen is ultra-lightweight, quick drying and supremely comfortable.
Our protective daily sunscreen is ultra-lightweight, quick drying and supremely comfortable. The mineral based, non-comedogenic physical formula provides powerful broad-spectrum protection from damaging UVA and UVB rays. Of course, the hybrid formula delivers more – in this case, oil-control technology, and soothing hydration so oily and blemish-prone skin is both balanced and protected, day in, day out.
High-Performance Daily Protection targeting Oxidative Ageing™
Oxidative stress is the silent skin ager. Every day, your skin is under attack—from pollution, UV rays, and environmental toxins—triggering inflammation, collagen breakdown, and premature ageing. But now, you can fight back.
Clear Shield Broad Spectrum, the next-generation antioxidant-infused sunscreen, doesn’t just protect—it actively reduces the visible impact of Oxidative Aging™ and defends against future damage. Powered by a physical pollution shield, it forms an invisible barrier that helps block environmental pollutants from adhering to the skin, while potent antioxidants neutralise free radicals before they cause harm. As the daily protection step within the Core 4 Essentials routine, it helps support long-term skin resilience against environmental stressors.
Its ultra-lightweight, quick drying and supremely comfortable formula combines oil control technology with soothing hydration, making it ideal for oily and blemish-prone skin types
*We’ve changed the SPF labelling from SPF42 to SPF30 to comply with new EU regulations. However, the percentage of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide haven’t changed, so neither has the level of Sun Protection Factor, which remains SPF42.

Ingredients
Micronised Zinc Oxide: A safe, micro-fine mineral that offers broad-spectrum protection from both UVA (ageing) and UVB (sunburn-causing) rays without leaving residual chalkiness on skin. Zinc oxide is known as a physical sunscreen agent, largely reflecting and scattering UV rays.
Titanium Dioxide: A safe naturally occurring mineral coated for sun stability, titanium dioxide offers broad-spectrum protection from both UVA (aging) and UVB (sunburn-causing) rays. Like zinc oxide, titanium dioxide is known as a physical sunscreen agent, largely reflecting and scattering UV rays.
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Along with keeping in moisture and boosting hydration, it also brightens skin.
Hyaluronic Acid: A complex sugar molecule occurring naturally in the body, hyaluronic acid hydrates by drawing water into the outer layers. It holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water, and makes skin plumper, softer and smoother.
ELIX-IR™: Knotgrass extract which is rich in flavonoids, and protects the skin against the damaging effects of infrared (IR).
Physavie®: A plant extract that shields against the effects of IR and visible light (HEV).
Exo-P™: An exopolysaccharide that acts as a biomimetic shield against particulate matter from pollution.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I reapply this sunscreen?
We recommend reapplying every two hours, especially after swimming or sweating, to maintain optimal protection.
Can I use this sunscreen under makeup?
Yes, Clear Shield SPF 30 can be used under makeup. Its lightweight formula allows for seamless application without pilling.
Is this sunscreen non-comedogenic (will it clog pores)?
Yes, Clear Shield is specifically formulated for oily and acne-prone skin. It is oil-free and uses lightweight physical filters that sit on top of the skin rather than absorbing into pores, minimising the risk of congestion.
Does this sunscreen leave a white cast?
Clear Shield is a 100% physical sunscreen. However, we use micronised minerals that blend elegantly into the skin. While it may appear white upon initial application, it dries down to a transparent, matte finish on most skin tones once absorbed.
What is the difference between physical and chemical sunscreens?
Chemical sunscreens absorb UV rays. Clear Shield is a physical (mineral) sunscreen that acts like a mirror, reflecting harmful UVA and UVB rays away from the skin surface. This is generally preferred for sensitive or heat-reactive skin types.
Why did the label change from SPF 42 to SPF 30?
The formula remains exactly the same. The label change is solely to align with updated EU regulatory standards regarding how SPF testing values are categorised on packaging. You are receiving the exact same protection profile as before.
