We’re constantly told about the dangers of sunburn, but despite this, 94 per cent of individuals aged 18-30 years experienced at least one episode of sunburn last year alone. What’s more, only 15 per cent of Australians are using the recommended amount of sunscreen - which is 40mL for the whole body.
While women are twice as likely to put on sunscreen as men, we clearly still have a long way to go in terms of slip, slop, slapping. In fact, a recent Australian study published in the American Journal of Clinical Dermatology found only 10 per cent of respondents were able to correctly identify the meaning of SPF30.
In an aim to improve sunscreen application this summer, SunSense is providing consumers with the perfect SPF addition to their beauty regime. The number one selling sunscreen brand in Australian pharmacy, SunSense is already a winner with consumers across the country.
Made and tested in Australia by trusted skincare experts, Ego Pharmaceuticals, it’s easy to see why SunSense is favoured by the people of this beach-loving culture. And the brand makes the choice a no-brainer thanks to the sale of its light moisturising, oil-free based sunscreen - the SunSense .
With added moisturisers to help maintain healthy-looking skin minus the greasy residue, this sunscreen with Nicotinamine and Vitamin E includes a very high SPF 50+ UVA and UVB broad spectrum for the ultimate in protection. Ideal for normal and dry skin, the SunSense Moisturising Face SPF 50+ is non-comedogenic and fragrance-free - meaning it won’t block pores and is unlikely to cause irritation.
Explaining just why it is a handbag essential, SunSense PR and Communications Executive Lauren Porter reveals: “Our SunSense Moisturising Face SPF 50+ offers UVA & UVB SPF 50+ protection whilst feeling beautiful and light on the skin, which has seen it become a favourite with our customers (it has gone from a top 20 sunscreen in pharmacy to number nine in just 12 months).
“We've seen a big trend in multitasking products and this little beauty does just that - it's a sunscreen first and foremost but it is also a moisturiser, developed specifically for the face and neck, but best of all, it doesn't leave a greasy residue. It sits really nicely under make-up and is non-comedogenic so it won't block pores. While it was developed with dry to normal skin in mind, it's suitable for all skin types - including sensitive skin.”
SunSense Moisturising Face SPF50+ is available exclusively in pharmacies and Priceline stores nationally. It retails for $13.95 (100mL).
