The UV Day Shield is an ultra-light gel with SPF 30 and high UVA protection. Enriched with niacinamide and antioxidants, it strengthens the skin barrier and protects from sunshine and other harmful environmental influences. Unlike other sunscreens, it’s neither greasy nor white which makes it perfect for oily, acne-prone and sensitive skin, and it adapts to your skin colour so that you’ll never look like a ghost again. If that’s not enough to convince you to give this a try, then may we also add that, with the UV Day Shield, you’ll no longer need a day cream or vitamin C serum.

UVA and UVB (SFP30) filter enriched with antioxidants and niacinamide.
We recommend that you use our UV Day Shield on a daily basis no matter if you’re in or outside. Why? Because although harmful UVA rays cannot go through walls, they can certainly go through windows. So, unless you spend your days hiding under the covers – which we hope you don’t – applying strong UVA and UVB protection should be one of the very first things you do in the morning. This is how:
Confused by all the SPF, UVB and UVA? Let's help clear things up: The SPF factor refers to how much a product protects from UVB rays. However, it might be helpful to know that the difference between SPF 30 and SPF 50 is actually less than 1%, meaning that SPF 50 is only 1% stronger or “better” than SPF 30. UVB (B like burn) are the rays that cause sunburns. UVA (A like aging) are the rays responsible for aging your skin. Our UV Day Shield is free of any hormonal active ingredients such as homosalate or octocrylene, which means that it is coral reef friendly.

Your skin is your armour: it makes sure that your body is well protected from the outside world. But like all great superheroes, it also has weaknesses – its kryptonite so to speak. So it’s our job and yours to return the favour and help shield your skin from all the harsh and harmful environments it weathers throughout the day. The protect step of your routine is all about that.
SPF stands for «Sun Protection Factor». In German so called LSF (Lichtschutzfaktor). The SPF refers only to the UVB (B like Burning) factor, not to the UVA (A like Aging) factor.
Sure, it is a super light gel. It is perfectly suitable for acne prone and sensitive skin.
Of course. Men love the sunscreen as it is super light, not greasy or sticky at all. But please do not use it on the upper eyes.
It is super important that you already start as a teenager to use proper UVA protection, to avoid dark spots also the ones after the pimples. And of course, you want to start a proper anti-aging skincare regime early. This starts with washing your face properly with our wash foam and apply the UV Day Shield in the morning. More is not needed.
Yes, don’t worry. It doesn’t go bad and it does not dissolve. You just need to shake it super well before every usage.
Yes, it does. But why do you want to get the vitamin D from the surface of your face (4% of your body area). Rather use your arms or my legs for the vitamin D production as each has a surface area of around 8%. This way you don't get pigmentations on your face.
It's exactly the same. SPF is the English abbreviation (sun protection factor) for the German abbreviation LSF, i.e. sun protection factor.
SPF (sun protection factor) is not a linear curve. So SPF 50 is not worse than SPF 100, it is a logarithmic curve so the UVB protection of SPF 50 and SPF100 is less than 1%, even the difference of SPF 30 and SPF 60 is only about 1%.
Right, in order not to get sunburn (i.e. to keep UVB out), wrong, if you want to prevent wrinkles. Because SPF or SPF factors refer only to UVB. Only recently have regulations come out in the EU and Switzerland that regulate the protection of UVA light in a "sunscreen" cream. Therefore, please pay attention to whether there is a UVA filter label on the packaging. Only then can you be sure that you are also protected against UVA, which is harmful for aging, not only outside but also in your own home. That's why our UV Day Shield protects from both UVB and UVA.
No, you would have to apply 2mg per cm2 of make-up to achieve an SPF 15. However, this then has nothing to do with aesthetic make-up. In addition, there is still no UVA "A" (aging) protection integrated.
No, it is super light and perfectly suitable for people with acne prone and sensitive skin. Even men love it, as it is not greasy at all.
No, we love our furry friends and none of our products will ever be testen on animals.
No it is a very light gel and helps you prevent your acne scars from getting darker and prevents your skin from discoloration even after pimples.
The question is not can you, it is more: YES YOU SHOULD use it to protect your skin from further damage and reducing its redness’s. It also contains antioxidants to protect your skin from further damage from the outside.
Every morning after you washed your face with our Fruit Acid Wash Foam. You apply a sufficient amount of the UV Day Shield and apply it on the entire face. Please do not use it on your eyelids. As it includes antioxidants already, you do not need an extra Vitamin C serum or any other day cream. Use the UV Day Shield 365 days per year. Even if you are not going outside.
