FAQ:
1. What is the difference between SunShield Aqua and SunShield?
Both SunShield Aqua and SunShield provide SPF 50 UVA/UVB protection and Anti-Blue Light defense. SunShield Aqua SPF 50 is a lightweight, water-based, and non-comedogenic sunscreen with a natural tint that lightly evens out skin tone for sheer, natural coverage, making it an ideal alternative for oily or acne-prone skin that prefers a fresher, weightless feel.
SunShield SPF 50 is a creamy, moisturising tone-up sunscreen with microcapsules that release a soft peachy tint, offering buildable coverage that works beautifully across all skin types, particularly for those with dry or dehydrated skin needing extra hydration.
2. Does SunShield Aqua have a tint or coverage?
SunShield Aqua has a sheer, natural tint that helps to lightly even out skin tone, blur imperfections, and create a smooth, semi-matte finish. It’s ideal for a “bare skin” look or as a primer under makeup.
3. Will it clog pores or cause breakouts?
No, SunShield Aqua is non-comedogenic and specifically designed for acne-prone skin. It helps control shine while protecting your skin, making it suitable for oily, breakout-prone skin.
4. Is this a physical or chemical sunscreen?
SunShield Aqua uses an advanced hybrid of physical and chemical UV filters to deliver broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection. It also defends against blue light from digital devices and indoor lighting, helping to minimise photo-ageing, hyperpigmentation, and oxidative stress.
5. Do you need to remove SunShield SPF 50 with a makeup remover?
We recommend using a gentle makeup remover, cleansing oil, or balm to thoroughly remove all kinds of sunscreen to prevent pore congestion. Alternatively, our LumiGlow Enzyme Cleansing Pods, a 3-in-1 cleanser, effectively removes sunscreen, makeup, and impurities in one step, no double cleansing needed.
6. Is this safe for use during pregnancy?
Yes, it is safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
