Why using sunscreen every day is essential

Exposure to UV (ultraviolet) rays is a major cause of premature skin aging, dark spots, sunburn, and, in more severe cases, skin cancer. Even on cloudy days or when you're not in direct sunlight, UV rays can still penetrate your skin.

A good face and body sunscreen acts as a barrier against sun damage, protecting your skin and keeping it healthy and youthful for longer.

How to choose the right sunscreen for your skin type

1. Fair, sensitive or erythema-prone skin

If you have very fair or easily irritated skin, choose a product with SPF 50+ and a high-tolerance formula . Ideal for you:

• La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF 50+

• Avène Intense Protect SPF 50+
  Both brands are designed for sensitive skin, even that of children.

2. Combination or oily skin

Those with acne-prone skin should opt for light , oil-free textures and mattifying formulations that do not clog pores:

• Rilastil Sun System Fluid SPF 50+

• La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVMune 400 Oil Control
  Perfect for protecting without leaving a shiny effect.

3. Normal or already tanned skin

If you have more resistant skin or are already accustomed to the sun, you can use a lower SPF, such as SPF 30 , but without ever giving up protection:

• Nuxe Sun Spray Solaire Délicieux SPF 30 : light and scented spray, perfect for effective and sensorial protection

• Nuxe Sun Lait Solaire Fondant SPF 30 : melting and hydrating texture, ideal for those who love creams with a rich consistency

• broad spectrum UVA and UVB filters
