Spring is in the air and it’s time to step up when it comes to sunblock, especially if you want to avoid those nasty sunspots and wrinkles. One product that I shall certainly have in my bag throughout the summer months is the Heliocare Color compact with an SPF 50. I have used it every day for the last two weeks in sunny Italy and it has kept my skin looking smooth and golden- not a spot in sight. What I really like about it is that it doesn’t have that tacky feel that most sunblocks have, as well as the fact that you can re-apply it over and over during the day.
Fernblock® is the star ingredient in Heliocare products (from Spain), based on a natural extract from a Central American fern which evolved from an aquatic to land plant, developing strong protective and repair mechanisms against UV radiation. Fernblock® acts as an anti-oxidant, prevents skin cancer and photoageing.
It is so easy to apply with the sponge provided (which sits in a separate compartment) and it evens out skin tone beautifully. Although it is water resistant, it’s advisable to re-apply after swimming.
The product comes in two formulations:
The Heliocare Oil-Free Compact SPF50 (R488) has a matifying effect and is ideal for combination or oily-prone skin. Available in Fair, Light and Brown.
The Heliocare Compact SPF50 (RRP R488) is ideal for normal to dry skin. Available in Light and Brown.
If you’re a BB wearer or like a light coverage make-up, this baby is for you- however, if you like a fuller coverage make-up, you can apply this over your regular foundation and have the added sun protection.
It’s available at leading dermatologists, or online at:
