Mother
Mother, as its name suggests, was made in a daughter’s effort to find a sunscreen that would help protect her mother’s melanomas and sun damaged skin. However, while on this search, she found that many SPF products had ingredients that were damaging to sensitive skin and the environment. Mother strives to provide Australians with a skin sensitive sunscreen without compromising on environmental impact.
Face & Body SPF30
Perfect for general everyday use, the Face & Body SPF30 is a hydrating sunscreen, made with just 9 eco-friendly ingredients, one of which being Non Nano Zinc Oxide. The Zinc Oxide’s Broad Spectrum protection is a superior fighter of UVB and UVA rays, and boasts anti-inflammatory properties while being completely photostable.
Tinted Touch Up SPF50
The Tinted Touch Up stick boasts all the benefits of the Face & Body sunscreen, all while being a small and convenient way to maintain your sun barrier throughout the day. Equipped with a brush head, the boosted SPF50 protection can be applied smoothly and evenly while providing a sheer layer of glowing and pore refining tint.
Sunny Skin
Sunny Skin’s sunscreen range is dedicated to designing different formulas that will be beneficial for different skin types. Sunny Skin employs a mineral UV filter so that the sunscreen sits atop your skin to actively reflect the sun’s rays and will not break down when exposed to sunlight. And sensitive skin types that are usually irritated by typical sunscreens are much calmer with Sunny Skin’s products.
Super Sun SPF50
Super Sun has a Zinc Oxide and antioxidant rich formula that provides a dewy, glowy finish. This make up of ingredients not only is a defendant against harmful UV rays but also can help with combating acne. The key ingredient Zinc has anti-inflammatory benefits to soothe irritated skin and helps to regulate sebum levels (that oil clogging your pores).
Glow Filter SPF50
Want a bronzing affect to your sunscreen? Sunny Skin’s Glow Filter provides a warm radiant tint to your skin while still providing its UV protection qualities. It’s formula is derived from antioxidant Tomato fruit extract and helps to combat the redness associated with skin conditions such as eczema, hyper pigmentation, rosacea and acne.
