Urban Antioxidant Sunscreen (50ml)
About
Urban Antioxidant Sunscreen is a daily-use face sunscreen that goes beyond basic UV protection — it’s designed to shield skin from UV rays, pollution, blue light (HEV), and environmental stressors while delivering antioxidant-rich nourishment and hydration. It’s ideal for clients who want a “smart” SPF that not only protects but supports skin health and glow.
What It Is
This is a hybrid broad-spectrum sunscreen fluid: combining chemical and mineral filters (for broad UVA/UVB coverage) with antioxidant, moisturizing, and skin-soothing actives. It acts both as a protective shield against sun and environmental aggressors and a skin-care step — a “defense serum + SPF + daily moisturizer” in one.
It’s lightweight enough for daily wear, suitable under makeup (or alone), and formulated to feel comfortable rather than heavy or greasy.
Key Benefits
-
Broad-spectrum protection (UVA/UVB + environmental stress): Active filters including chemical (Homosalate, Octisalate, Octocrylene) and mineral (Zinc Oxide) protect skin from sun damage and help prevent sunburn and photo-aging.
-
Antioxidant & pollution/blue-light defense: Includes antioxidant actives (like Lipochroman® plus other antioxidants and botanical extracts) that help neutralize free radicals from UV, pollution, and HEV/blue light — reducing oxidative stress and supporting long-term skin health.
-
Hydration & barrier support: Contains humectants and emollients (e.g. glycerin, nourishing oils) that help maintain moisture, prevent dryness, and support skin barrier integrity even under daily SPF wear.
-
Skin-care + sun-care in one step: Works as SPF + antioxidant treatment + lightweight moisturizer — saving a step while delivering multiple benefits. Great for busy routines or clients who want minimal steps but maximum protection.
-
Suitable for a variety of skin types (including sensitive, combo, or pollution-exposed skin): The blend of mineral + chemical filters plus antioxidant and soothing elements makes it a versatile daily SPF for many skin concerns (sensitivity, dryness, uneven tone).
Key Ingredients
Here are some of the standout actives — and what they bring to the formula:
-
Homosalate (8%), Octisalate (5%), Octocrylene (5%), Zinc Oxide (8%) — the UV filters that provide broad-spectrum sun protection, guarding against UVA/UVB rays and helping prevent sunburn, photo-aging, and UV-induced pigmentation.
-
Antioxidants (e.g. Dimethylmethoxy Chromanol / Lipochroman®, Tocopheryl Acetate / Vitamin E, botanical extracts) — help neutralize free radicals from UV, pollution, and blue light; protect skin’s structural integrity; support long-term skin health and reduce oxidative stress.
-
Hydrating & skin-identical lipids / humectants (e.g. glycerin, plant oils like jojoba or coconut, moisturizing emollients/esters) — help maintain skin hydration, support the barrier, prevent dryness, and keep skin soft while wearing SPF.
-
Soothing / supportive botanicals and peptides / extracts (e.g. marine peptides, botanical root extracts, calming aloe) — help calm skin, support barrier resilience, and add antioxidant/anti-inflammatory benefits for stressed or sensitive skin (especially helpful in urban, polluted environments).
Why It Stands Out
Urban Antioxidant Sunscreen stands out because it merges real sun protection with skin-care benefits: instead of just filtering UV rays, it brings antioxidants, hydration, barrier support, and pollution/blue-light defense — all in one daily fluid.
It’s ideal for clients living in cities (pollution, blue-light exposure), for those with sensitive or reactive skin, or for anyone who wants to simplify their morning routine without sacrificing protection or skin health. In short: it’s a daily “armor + care” step — essential for healthy, glowing skin over time.
