Oil Free SPF 40+ 50 ml

Oil Free SPF 40+ is a mineral broad spectrum face sunscreen combining 2% titanium dioxide and 1% zinc oxide with dual-depth hyaluronic acid, bisabolol and vitamins C and E for weightless, invisible daily protection. Part of the Glo Skin Beauty Protect + Prevent range, distributed in the UK and Ireland by Glo Skin Beauty UK & Ireland.

Most sunscreens are a trade-off. Oil Free SPF 40+ earns its place in a daily routine by not being one. Mineral broad spectrum protection at SPF 40+ sits in a formula light enough to forget you're wearing it, non-comedogenic enough for oily and post-treatment skin, and substantive enough to do more than block UV. Vitamins C and E neutralise free radical damage from pollution and oxidative stress alongside the sun's rays.

Protection, hydration and antioxidant defence. One step.

The UV complex uses 2% titanium dioxide and 1% zinc oxide, an all-mineral, reef-safe blend. Mineral filters work by physically reflecting UV at the skin's surface, which makes them considerably better tolerated on sensitised and post-treatment skin than chemical alternatives. Two forms of hyaluronic acid handle hydration: hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate binds moisture deep in the skin, standard sodium hyaluronate protects the surface. Together, genuine replenishment without any heaviness. Bisabolol and oat kernel extract (Avena Sativa) calm redness and reactive skin. Vitamins C (sodium ascorbate) and E (tocopherol) extend protection into antioxidant territory, neutralising the free radical damage that UV exposure and pollution cause and physical SPF cannot address alone.

All skin types, including oily, combination and post-treatment skin. Oil-free and non-comedogenic. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends it for daily use. Apply last in your morning routine, after serums and moisturiser. Year-round, indoors and out: UVA penetrates glass, which makes SPF as relevant on a grey Tuesday in January as it is in August.

2. Smooth evenly across the face, avoiding the eye area. Allow to absorb before applying makeup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does Oil Free SPF 40+ protect against?
Oil Free SPF 40+ provides broad spectrum mineral protection against UVA and UVB rays using a reef-safe blend of 2% titanium dioxide and 1% zinc oxide, alongside antioxidant defence against free radical damage from pollution and blue light. Recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation for daily use. Suitable year-round, including indoors, as UVA penetrates glass.

Q: Is Oil Free SPF 40+ suitable for oily or acne-prone skin?
Yes. The formula is oil-free and non-comedogenic, so it won't block pores or contribute to congestion. Its weightless, invisible finish suits all skin types, including oily and combination skin, and sits cleanly under makeup. It was formulated to be the sunscreen that oily skin can actually wear every day.

Q: Can I use Oil Free SPF 40+ after a professional peel or treatment?
Yes, and it is the recommended post-peel choice in Glo Skin Beauty professional protocols. The mineral-only formula and calming actives, bisabolol and oat kernel extract, are well tolerated on sensitised skin after exfoliation. Apply daily post-treatment to protect the skin's investment and prevent UV-triggered pigmentation.
