This is a non-greasy, broad-spectrum SPF50 which rapidly absorbs and sits beautifully under make-up. It has an invisible finish so is suitable for all skin colours and contains hyaluronic acid and glycerin which hydrates, plumps and smooths, while niacinamide brightens. It is also non-comedogenic and fragrance free, making it suitable for those with acne-prone or sensitive skin.”
