Clear Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 30
High-Performance Daily Protection Targeting Oxidative Ageing™
Clear Shield SPF 30 is a 100% mineral sunscreen formulated specifically for oily and blemish-prone skin. Where most SPF formulas feel heavy or congesting, Clear Shield combines reliable sun protection with oil-control technology, helping reduce excess shine while keeping skin comfortable throughout the day.
Broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection is delivered through micronised Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) supports sebum regulation and helps maintain a more balanced, even-looking complexion over time. The formula is further supported by Exo-P™, a physical pollution shield, and an antioxidant complex that targets Oxidative Ageing™, the cumulative damage from pollution, HEV blue light, and infrared radiation that contributes to visible premature ageing.
The quick-drying formula is designed to blend seamlessly across skin tones, layers comfortably under makeup without clogging pores, and forms the daily protection step within the Core 4 Essentials routine.
Clear Shield is a lightweight mineral sunscreen designed for oily, acne‑prone skin. For normal to dry skin, see Sheer Hydration Untinted or Sheer Hydration Versatile Tint.
Please note: The SPF designation has been updated from SPF 42 to SPF 30 to comply with new EU regulations. The active ingredient formulation and the level of sun protection remain unchanged.
Directions
Apply generously and evenly to face, neck and chest 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply as needed or after swimming, washing, towel drying or heavy perspiring.
Ingredients
Micronised Zinc Oxide: A safe, micro-fine mineral that offers broad-spectrum protection from both UVA (ageing) and UVB (sunburn-causing) rays without leaving residual chalkiness on skin. Zinc oxide is known as a physical sunscreen agent, largely reflecting and scattering UV rays.
Titanium Dioxide: A safe naturally occurring mineral coated for sun stability, titanium dioxide offers broad-spectrum protection from both UVA (aging) and UVB (sunburn-causing) rays. Like zinc oxide, titanium dioxide is known as a physical sunscreen agent, largely reflecting and scattering UV rays.
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Along with keeping in moisture and boosting hydration, it also brightens skin.
Hyaluronic Acid: A complex sugar molecule occurring naturally in the body, hyaluronic acid hydrates by drawing water into the outer layers. It holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water, and makes skin plumper, softer and smoother.
ELIX-IR™: Knotgrass extract which is rich in flavonoids, and protects the skin against the damaging effects of infrared (IR).
Physavie®: A plant extract that shields against the effects of IR and visible light (HEV).
Exo-P™: An exopolysaccharide that acts as a biomimetic shield against particulate matter from pollution.

Backed by Science
Clear Shield is built around a dual-function approach: protect and balance. Micronised mineral filters provide broad-spectrum UV protection in a formula specifically developed to address the needs of oily skin and control excess sebum without congestion or residue.
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is the formula’s skin-supporting active, clinically studied for its role in sebum regulation, pore minimisation, and skin tone evening. Combined with the Exo-P™ pollution shield and a multi-antioxidant complex, the formula targets Oxidative Ageing™ across a wider range of environmental stressors than UV filters alone can address. Pollution, HEV blue light, and infrared radiation are all known contributors to visible premature ageing.
