The Science Behind The SPF

How It Feels:

Face Shield Flex SPF 50 starts out white, and upon activating with the heat of your fingertips, the colour will transform into a tone-adapting shade. Flex has a demi-matte, lightweight finish on the skin.

Why We Made It:

This blendable tinted sunscreen was created to blur the lines between foundation and SPF, to provide customisable colour coverage whilst offering comprehensive sun defence.

+ THE MAGIC INGREDIENT

Iron oxide pigments:

These micronised pigments act as cosmetic colourants and are encapsulated to allow them to adjust to the skin’s natural tone when activated upon contact. This ingredient is also proven to protect skin from damage and photoageing caused by blue (HEV) light.

How To Apply

Tips to get the most out of your Face Shield Flex:

  1. Dispense onto your fingers, rub gently, and watch as the encapsulated iron oxide pigments are released and bloom in your fingertips.
  2. Once the formula is no longer white, apply it evenly on the face. Finish with just one layer for a naturally flawless finish, or build another layer or two for fuller coverage.
  3. PRO TIP: For a perfected, protected look, apply FLEX all over the face for a flawless canvas, and then use Glow to highlight the high points, and Bronze to contour.

FAQs
What is a mineral based UV protector?

The active ingredients in a mineral based powder sunscreen, or a cream, are what makes them different to the regular old types of chemical-based sunscreens. We will go over some more of the specifics next, but for now there is one main difference to remember. In basic terms, a mineral-based UV protector uses active ingredients that physically block UV rays, reflecting them away from you, and preventing them from penetrating your skin.

What are the benefits of SPF makeup?

As well as streamlining your routine, SPF makeup helps to provide a daily shield against sun damage, premature ageing and hyperpigmentation, whilst enhancing your features.

Can I wear sunscreen under makeup if I have oily skin?

Yes, you can wear sunscreen under makeup if you have oily skin. Our Face Shield Matte SPF 50 is perfect for applying as a base under makeup, or alone. If applying under makeup, we recommend applying our Sheer Matte SPF 30 Sunscreen Brush on top to reduce oiliness further and to ensure adequate protection. This also makes reapplying every two hours on-top of makeup easy.

How often should I reapply sunscreen on my body?

Just like your face, it is advised to reapply sunscreen across your whole body every two hours, and more frequently when in contact with water or heavy perspiration.
