This week is Sun Awareness Week, the perfect reminder to protect your skin every single day — not just when it’s sunny.
Sun exposure is one of the biggest causes of:
• premature ageing
• pigmentation and dark patches
• uneven skin tone
• redness and sensitivity
• collagen breakdown
• increased risk of skin damage
That’s why we recommend daily SPF, even on cloudy days.
At the clinic, we stock Heliocare sun protection, one of our favourite SPF ranges because it offers high-level, full-spectrum protection against UVA, UVB, visible light and infrared-A.
Heliocare 360° also uses Fernblock® antioxidant technology, which helps protect the skin beyond standard sunscreen.
Our favourite for everyday wear is the Heliocare tinted SPF.
Why tinted SPF is especially good for pigmentation:
• It gives high-level sun protection while evening out the skin tone
• The tint helps create a natural, fresh-looking finish
• It is ideal if you suffer with pigmentation, melasma or uneven tone
• It helps protect against visible light, which can contribute to pigmentation concerns
• It can be worn alone or under makeup
Heliocare’s Pigment Solution SPF50+ is designed to help minimise pigmentation concerns, with protection against UVA, UVB, visible light and infrared-A, plus ingredients such as niacinamide and ellagic acid to support uneven pigmentation.
If you want glowing skin this summer, please remember: a spray tan is the safer tan.
We also offer professional spray tans, so you can still achieve that bronzed, healthy glow without exposing your skin to damaging UV rays.
So, if you can't remember when you opened that bottle of sun protection you used last summer, this is your reminder they have a 6-12 month shelf life and probably time to get a new one.
Pop in to purchase your Heliocare tinted SPF and/or hit book now below to book in your next spray tan.
Protect your skin. Prevent pigmentation. Keep your glow.
