. Using what they call 3:1 technology, Clinique Sun products provide UVB protection that is three times proportional to the UVA protection it gives, ensuring that the products contain an appropriate amount of protection from both UV rays.

Clinique Sun products also assist skin in repairing itself naturally, and contain ingredients to calm and soothe sun-burnt and irritated skin. What’s more, it even has antioxidants to help fight free radicals that cause premature skin aging, as seen in visible lines and wrinkles, plus enzymes that actually repair these unsightly UV damages.

If you find the products too expensive, note that not only do they bring you a lot of skin benefits you don’t often find in your regular sunscreen, it is also very economical, as a very small amount (no more than quarter-sized for the entire face) is enough for each application. Be sure to apply both sun protection products on your skin evenly at least 15 to 20 minutes prior to sun exposure.

Clinique Sun has other targeted sun care products, such as SPF 25 Body Spray (SRP P1,700 for a 150 ml non-aerosol spray can), a unique 360-degree continuous spray that allows one-touch application from any angle to protect even the most hard-to-reach places; and After Sun Rescue Balm with Aloe (SRP P1,200 for a 150 ml tube), an ultra-moisturizing body balm to refresh and soothe skin that was over-exposed to sun.

Clinique Sun products are available at all Clinique counters.
