A physical shield that defies all the ‘physical’ stereotypes, Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare’s All-Physical Lightweight Wrinkle Defense Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 30 (try saying that after too many sangrias) deflects the skin-ageing effects of the sun without leaving your face feeling smothered.

Oil and fragrance-free, this acts like a parasol – keeping skin safe from UVA/UVB rays, as well as pollution and blue light emitted by phones and computer screens. Crammed with antioxidants to scavenge harmful radicals (we’re talking bearberry, sea buckthorn, lingonberry and DDG’s signature ferulic acid), this helps to delay signs of premature ageing, while halting the onset of dark spots and visible sun damage. Suitable for all skin types (this is great if you’re sensitive), it’s non-greasy, swiftly absorbed and it’s coral reef-safe.

Use daily in the morning as the final step in your skin care routine, after moisturiser.

Apply to fingertips and massage into skin until fully blended in.

Apply liberally over face, neck, and décolleté 15 minutes before sun exposure.

For full coverage, massage into the hairline, over the ears, and back of the neck. Reapply every two hours.

NOTE: Unfortunately due to its slight white cast, this formula is not currently suitable for darker skin tones if you would like an invisible finish.
