The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF50

If you have put off wearing a facial SPF due to texture issues, or perhaps have yet to invest due to the most comfortable options being pricey then do I have a surprise for you. I know very few people get as excited as I do about facial SPF options (I don't get out much) but trust me when I say The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF50 is not to be missed - I'll go on record and say that this may just shape how we consume and what we will come to expect as normal from facial protection.

The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF50 (£18/50ml) is so much more than a defence against both UVA and UVB rays, it contains skin care elements to protect and nourish deeper than a standard sunscreen. Yes the sun is what we mainly wear SPF to shield the skin from but what about external aggressors such as environmental damage? The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF50 contains an anti-oxidant to protect the complexion against pollution, smoke and other signs of city living. If that is not enough to convince you that The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF50 is the future of facial sunscreens, it also contains red algae and vitamin C to gently and gradually brighten the complexion.

The above qualities are mere bonuses compared to the texture of The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF50; forget what you have come to know from past experiences, this is a lighter than light lotion that is non-greasy and utterly weightless - you'll all but forget you are wearing SPF once applied. Unlike other sunscreens The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF50 is a milk to water formula, a gentle beyond lightweight consistency that melts onto the skin for a truly weightless experience. As a further added bonus, I find that this settles to a subtle matte finish that not only optically blurs my enlarged pores (it will have a similar effect on facial lines too), allowing my make-up to glide on effortlessly and all without

There are very few facial SPF's I can recommend to all but The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF50 gets the universial seal of approval. The gentle formulation is ideal not only for easily irritated and acne prone complexions, but for those with oily skin too as it is not thick in texture nor overly hydrating-come-overwhelming. For those with a drier skin type, I would recommend teaming this with your everyday moisturiser (apply after moisturising but before make-up) to ensure the skin is fully quenched but rest assure this will not further dehydrate the complexion.

The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF50 is a game changer, there is nothing else like it and as it is so affordable and weightless, you really have no excuse not to protect your skin from daily damage.
