ALASTIN Skincare SilkSHIELD Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 for Face 1.9 oz — Lightweight, Sheer Peptide Complex

ALASTIN Skincare SilkSHIELD Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 is a lightweight, sheer mineral sunblock for the face that protects against broad-spectrum UV while supporting skin texture and comfort with an exclusive peptide complex.

This daily facial sunscreen delivers mineral-based UV protection in a transparent, fast-absorbing lotion designed for everyday wear. The formula is fragrance-free, oil-free, and non-comedogenic, so it layers easily under makeup or over treatments and is suitable for sensitive or post-procedure skin. Alongside zinc oxide protection, ALASTIN’s peptide blend helps maintain skin’s appearance of firmness and smoothness while the lightweight base keeps skin hydrated without a heavy residue.

How does this mineral sunscreen feel on the skin?

The SilkSHIELD formula is designed to be light and fast-absorbing, leaving a sheer finish rather than a white cast. It’s formulated to sit comfortably under makeup or alone as a daily moisturizer. Because it’s oil-free and non-comedogenic, it won’t clog pores for most skin types.

• Sheer, transparent mineral finish that blends in quickly.
• Lightweight lotion texture that won’t feel greasy.
• Suitable for layering under cosmetics or serums.

What kinds of protection does SilkSHIELD provide?

SilkSHIELD protects against UVA and UVB rays with broad-spectrum mineral filters while also offering defense from infrared radiation, blue light exposure, and environmental pollutants. Designed for daily use, it helps reduce cumulative sun exposure from outdoor and incidental indoor light.

• Broad-spectrum SPF 30 mineral protection (zinc oxide based).
• Shields skin from UVA/UVB, IR, pollution, and blue light.
• Reapply after swimming, sweating, or towel-drying and at least every two hours.

Can I use this after professional skin treatments or on sensitive skin?

The fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, and non-comedogenic composition makes SilkSHIELD appropriate for many who have sensitive or vulnerable skin, including post-cosmetic treatment skin. Its gentle mineral actives and supportive peptide blend aim to be soothing while offering protection.

• Formulated without fragrance and with minimal irritants.
• Recommended for post-procedure and treatment-vulnerable skin when advised by a clinician.
• Non-comedogenic and oil-free to reduce pore-clogging risk.

How do I apply SilkSHIELD for best results?

Apply generously to clean, dry skin at least 15 minutes before sun exposure and spread evenly across all exposed areas of the face and neck. It works alone as a daily moisturizer or layered beneath makeup; reapply after water exposure, heavy sweating, or every two hours for continuous protection.

• Use 15 minutes before sun exposure and reapply often.
• Reapply after 40 minutes of swimming or sweating and after towel drying.
• Can be used under makeup or over other skincare steps.
