If there is one skin-care product that works immediately upon application, and continues to protect your skin and keep your face looking healthy, wrinkle-free, and youthful for years to come, it's sunscreen.

While many of us wear this product only when going out, and double the amount during summer, the reality is we've got to wear sunscreen every single day, all year round, rain or shine. Dermatologists will tell you, sun damage and skin cancer due to ultraviolet rays, pollution, and other everyday aggressors are independent of the hot or cold weather. Just because you're indoors doesn't necessarily mean your skin is protected. You are still exposed to UV rays from your laptops or mobile phones and even your light. Hence, the best way to protect the skin is with sun protectection.

Fortunately for us, Clarins has got us covered.

Clarins UV Plus [5P] Anti-Pollution SPF50/PA+++ continues to deliver its innovation in skin care with its revolutionary [5P] defense technology, protecting skin against five different kinds of pollutants encountered in daily life: atmospheric or outdoor, indoor, blue light, photo pollution, and pollen.

It is powered by organic mango leaf extract, which stimulates skin's self-defense by a whopping 64% and provides eight hours of non-stop hydration.

Texture-wise, this gel cream is lightweight with a very subtle fragrance. Don't be surprised with the first squeeze. It may look thick but it is easily absorbed into the skin with a perfectly invisible finish. Within a few seconds, the skin feels hydrated and smooth without any grease.

The brand offers this revolutionary product in three shades to match your skin's needs: Translucent, Lavender, and Rose. Translucent gives a perfectly invisible finish with zero white residue, Lavender provides that tone-up effect the corrects dullness and darkness for fairer skin and immediate radiance, and Rose gives that second-skin finish and instant rosy glow.

This eighth generation product also features a new streamlined design, capped with a protective bubble. This elegant and easy-to-use tube has a Clarins-designed bubble cap, a reminder of the UV Plus [5P]'s bubble of protection for your skin that you can easily slip into a handbag wherever you go.

The application method of UV Plus [5P] is specifically designed to maximize the product's efficacy giving you optimum protection and instant radiance. Simply warm the product in your hands to bring it up to your skin's temperature then rapidly smooth it in from the center of the face working outwards, starting with the cheeks, then the forehead, moving down to the neck and décolleté to follow the natural direction of lymphatic circulation.

Future-proofing our skin against further damage brought on by daily environmental aggressors is of utmost importance. This modern sunscreen developed during these trying times is an excellent solution for any city-dweller.
