Skingredients Skin Shield Moisturising and Priming SPF 50 PA+++ Skingredients

Skingredients Skin Shield Moisturising and Priming SPF 50 PA+++ (73ml) is your multi award-winning, broad-spectrum SPF that’ll protect your skin + lightly moisturise, while imparting a dewy finish + peachy tint. Our SPF has a legion of fans that adore its glow, glow, glow! 

Granted, Skin Shield’s peachy tint isn’t suitable for dark-skinned hoomans, but watch this space – we’ll be serving you a skin-inclusive SPF in 2023. 

The 04 in the KeyFour range – Skin Shield is the ESSENTIAL final step in every hooman’s AM skin recipe! It’s your lightweight mineral parasol that’ll shield (wink, wink) your skin from damaging UVA + UVB rays, blue light (aka HEV light) emitted from the sun + our screens, pollution and infrared. 

For added skin benefits (because we don’t do anything by halves), you’ll find niacinamide – otherwise known as vitamin B3 – and vitamin E for the antioxidant protection against pesky environmental aggressors. Plus, trust the moisturising addition of allantoin to smooth the skin. It is non-comedogenic, oil-free, water-resistant and non-greasy, and what’s more, there’s no need to stress about a chalky white cast and photo flashback. 

Nerdie tip: Fully massage into the skin to ensure efficacy. Apply every morning post-serum as the perfect makeup primer.

Please note that you need to purchase a primary pack for each product if this is your first purchase as the refill tubes do not come with pumps.
