With a range of sunscreen options for different skin types, Y.O.U Beauty’s Sunbrella Series aims to shield and nourish your skin under the tropical sun
In a country with two seasons, wet and dry, the Philippines experiences varying temperatures and humidity levels. With the country entering its dry season at the tail-end of March, skin issues are coming into view, making sun protection—one that shields your screen from UVA and UVB rays, infrared and blue light—a crucial part of your skincare regimen.
Even Korean actor Kim Soo Hyun is an avid fan of applying their dose of SPF to their daily skin routine, resulting in their youthful glow and smoother skin texture. By applying the recommended SPF number, your skin is protected from cancer-causing ultraviolet radiation, fine lines, wrinkles, blotchiness, discoloration, and textural skin issues can be avoided, especially when religiously applied year-round.
With all things considered about combatting the effects of sun exposure, Y.O.U Beauty formulated a collection called Y.O.U Sunbrella Series, a range of four lightweight and no-cast sunscreens with SPF 50+, PA++++ designed to cater to every skin’s unique needs while offering broad-specturm sun protection against UVA/UVB rays and infrared and blue light.
For sensitive skin
It’s a tale as old as time for those with sensitive skin: no matter the weather or situation, you’re prone to redness, irritation, and breakouts. If you plan to spend summer attending music festivals or hiking—activities that can expose you to a multitude of elements—the Y.O.U Sunbrella Intensive Care Aqua Sunscreen is recommended.
The gentle multi-benefit sunscreen contains skin-caring ingredients like SymWhite 377, a patented formula that inhibits the formation of melanin to brightenin dark spots and uneven skintone, and ceramide for extra nourishment for all-around protection from skin sensitivities.
For oily skin
When it comes to oil-prone skin, applying SPF on your face can be tricky as it can slide off quickly. It’s something to be cautious about, especially when you’re thinking about extensive sun exposure through activities such as beach volleyball or lounging by the pool.
Opt for a lightweight and hydrating sunscreen like the Y.O.U Sunbrella Triple UV Elixir Sunscreeen to combat the greasiness. The skin protectant is infused with oil control and nourishing ingredients like Matmarine™, Witch Hazel, and 4D Centella Asiatica to soothe and soften skin while retaining much-needed moisture while under the sun for up to 8 hours. The water-based formula of the sunscreen allows for your skin to breathe without white residue.
For dull skin
If you’re going for a city tour in Los Angeles or taking your routine walk to your local park, aiming for picture-ready or fresh-looking skin after each activity is a must. However, if you’re experiencing dull or uneven skin, exposure to the sun can aggravate its appearance.
If your beauty goal is to have brighter and radiant skin, the Y.O.U Sunbrella Tone Up UV Elixir Sunscreen offers intensive protection against the sun’s harmful rays. According to the brand, this SPF 50+ sunscreen is also nourishing with its active ingredients such as Photosensitive Smart Powder, Sunflower Seed Oil, SymWhite 377, and Hyaluronic Acid.
For combination skin
If you’re a water sports enthusiast or someone who’s always exposed to the outdoors, your skin can be prone to damage and may have irregular pigmentation and coarse texture. The Y.O.U Sunbrella Airy Outdoor Sunscreen Spray provides intensive protection against UVA/UVB and infrared rays. The ultra-lightweight sunscreen spray is enriched with Niacinamide and Buddleja Officinalis Extract, a flower-derived ingredient that offers potent photoprotection that can safeguard skin against the damaging effects of blue and infrared light and UV radiation.
If you’re thinking about scuba diving or snorkeling, the Y.O.U Beauty sunscreen spray is also reef-friendly, allowing you to enjoy water sports guilt-free.
