Finding the it-sunscreen is not too easy. It should be quickly absorbed, pleasant to apply, not too liquid - not too solid. But what should be paid special attention is the sun protection factor (SPF). This indicates the length of effectiveness of a sunscreen. So, to minimize the risk of sunburn and premature aging of the skin, it is recommended to use a product with at least an SPF of 30. However, if you know that you will be exposed to the sun all day, whether on vacation or on the terrace, you should urgently reach for SPF 50 or higher if necessary. A question that is also often debated, "Does every skin type need to use sunscreen?" Our answer: definitely YES! And with the following sun creams you are ideally equipped for the upcoming summer 2021.

Inspired by the beauty of the Swiss Alps and magnificent sunsets, la prairie stands for exclusive and quality skin care. Among them is the Cellular Swiss UV Protection Veil SPF 50 for the face. UV filters and anti-oxidants contained in the cream protect the skin from any environmental influences and thus reduce the appearance of age spots and pigment changes. At the same time, the skin is intensively moisturized. Between the daily care routine in the morning and the application of the day's make-up, the product should be gently massaged in with fingertips. 50ml of the UV protection can be snatched up for 192 euros.

Likewise, it prevents pigmentation spots, contains anti-aging formulas and is suitable for all skin types. The cream has a light texture and is easy to apply to the face and body without leaving a greasy film. The main ingredients are Avobenzone (most commonly used UVA filter in the world), Homosalate (synthetic sunscreen) and Vitamin E (valuable antioxidant), which provide safe broad-spectrum protection. However, unlike other sunscreens, this sunscreen must be replenished after any contact with water. If the sunscreen is sometimes not sold out, you can get hold of a 148ml tube for 24 euros.
