(SPOT.ph) We don't need to tell you how important it is to swipe on some SPF this summer, especially if you're planning on hitting the beach—and who isn't? But did you know that some sunscreens actually wash off of your skin when you take a dip in the ocean and that their ingredients can be harmful to coral reefs? Don't worry, it's still possible to keep your skin safe in the water without harming our coral friends. Thankfully, we found you a sunblock that does both: Check out Kiehl's Activated Sun Protector.
This sunscreen contains broad spectrum SPF 50 PA+++, which means it protects you from both UVA and UVB rays and even prevents skin-aging. It's also water-resistant and sweat-proof, so you'll be safe from sun damage even when you're taking a dip or getting extra sweaty from the heat. It's made for both the face and the body, so you won't have to be carrying several different sunscreens when you hit the beach. Best part is that it's totally coral-friendly! No need to worry about harming any marine life while going for a swim.
If you're not planning on taking a dip in the ocean this summer, Kiehl's has a new product you might want to check out: The Ultra Light Daily UV Defense Aqua Gel. Its lightweight formula makes it perfect for everyday use—it's especially formulated for humid conditions so it won't clog your pores or make your face oily even under the blistering heat. It also contains SPF 50 PA+++ and is anti-pollution—perfect for the city. It promises to keep you protected for up to eight hours so once you put it on, you won't have to worry about it for the rest of the day.
The Kiehl's Activated Sun Protector (P2,100)Â is available in all Kiehl's stores nationwide while the Ultra Light Daily UV Defense Aqua Gel (P2,100/30ml; P3,100/60ml) will be available in stores starting April 15. Better stock up in time for your next beach trip!
