Your guide to SPF
While sun protection is often associated with the sizzling summer months, it's crucial to remember that UV rays are present year-round. Discover the best ways to protect sensitive skin throughout the year without compromising on skin comfort or nourishment.
Our first-ever sunscreen has been years in the making and feels like a soothing skincare product. We know how it feels to have sensitive skin and constantly have to hide from the sun, unable to experience many adventures.
Sun damage is one of the most significant contributors to skin ageing and increased sensitivity. Protecting your skin with daily sunscreen is essential. Unlike many SPF 50 sunscreens that feel thick and greasy, Serene Daily SPF 50+ is lightweight, breathable, and leaves your skin smooth, radiant, and deeply nourished. It’s a daily essential for everyone.

Why wear SPF all year-round?
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun can penetrate clouds and even glass windows, making daily sunscreen application a key step in your skincare routine. UV rays are divided into two main types: UVA and UVB. UVA rays penetrate deeply into the skin, contributing to premature ageing and long-term damage, while UVB rays are responsible for sunburn and can directly damage the DNA in your skin cells. Both types of rays increase the risk of skin cancer, making sun protection essential every day.
How to protect sensitive skin?
Key to sun protection for sensitive skin is applying SPF daily after your morning skincare routine, even if you’re staying indoors. Wear alone, or under makeup, 20 minutes before sun exposure for optimal protection.
We also recommend avoiding prolonged sun exposure and complementing your sunscreen use with a hat, protective clothing, and sunglasses when outdoors.
When to use sunscreen in your skincare routine?
Apply sunscreen after your morning skincare routine, and before you put on makeup. We recommend starting with a balancing cleanser, followed by a facial mist to support your skin's microbiome and a moisturiser or facial oil to lock in hydration. Once your skincare is absorbed, apply a generous amount of sunscreen evenly over your face and neck, at least 20 minutes before sun exposure.
