Reflect SPF 30

This top selling, broad-spectrum sunscreen will provide a comprehensive mineral barrier against the sun’s harmful rays, ensuring everyday protection against premature ageing as well as more severe reactions, such as Skin Cancer.

Whatever their age or personal skin concern, Medico Beauty encourages all patients to use sun protection on areas of their body which are regularly exposed - particularly their face and hands. We advise our patients to do so multiple times a day, every day, whatever the weather, whatever the location.

Most sunscreens protect against sun-burning UVB light, however, skin experts now know that damaging UVA is also present, both day and night. A combination of protective minerals – not chemical formulations - have the ability to provide full spectrum protection.

1. Use sunscreen everyday
2. Yes, that’s every day: even when it’s cloudy and not just when you are on holiday
3. No, Medico Beauty staff aren’t sun haters – it’s good for you! - but we do encourage our patients enjoy the sun in an intelligent, safe way
4. Even those with apparently normal skin still need to protect their faces intelligently
5. We advise our patients to apply suncreen multiple times a day, every day, whatever the weather, whatever the location
6. If you are planning on being outdoors for longer than 20 minutes, apply a factor of SPF 28 every two hours

Our many years in the industry – we started in 1989 – means that we’ve learnt to separate Beauty Fact from Beauty Fiction ... Lipsticks with SPFs, Moisturisers with SPFs and Eye Cream with SPFs are everywhere! However, many cosmetics - particularly moisturizers - labeled with an SPF number aren't actually designed as effective sun protection products. Clinical studies have shown, therefore, that many do not offer adequate protection against the sun's harmful rays and could, therefore, be causing more bad than good…

Rather than disrupt, the skin’s natural self-hydrating and exfoliation processes with cream emollient that contains a chemical SPF, Reflect provides completely weightless and clear mineral protection.

Unlike many competitors, Reflect does not contain Oxybenzone or any other chemical due to their inadequate UVA protection and irritation of the skin. Instead, this uses Titanium Dioxide, a non-irritating broadband physical sunscreens that is beneficial for all skin types particularly if you wish to avoid creams. A mineral sunblock will continue to protect the skin until it is removed from the skin’s surface with water or sweat.

As an added bonus, Reflect contains a bio-logically, Chirally Correct ingredient called L-Superoxide-Dismutase –a potent Antioxidant found naturally in cells– and L-Glutathione, a potent Anti-inflammatory. They squelch rouge Free Radical oxygen molecules, which cause havoc to the delicate structure of skin cell membranes. These nasties create DNA mutations which lead to abnormal cell function, inflammation and the breakdown of healthy looking skin. 

This product will naturally hydrate the skin far more intelligently than any over the counter ‘moisturiser’, which also typically contain nasty, irritating ingredients, often resulting in inflamed skin and a disrupted barrier function (even if you can’t see it with a naked eye).

Good fats protect against sun damage and ensure that the cells membrane is more easily permeated for better detoxification and delivery of protective Antioxidants. Go for our Balance and Restore powders to ensure that you have internal support.

For a fantastic morning routine, first cleanse with Purity Clean or Benefit Clean facial washes using our Spa Cell Facial Pad. Having dried your face with Scott Roll, apply either a spray or two of Reflect.

Reflect can be used on its own or with can be mixed with Serious Protection to make a lightweight face cream. If you're looking for a product the ability to hydrate the skin on a deeper level, why don't you try out our Hydrate+ product?

Of course, you’ll need to continue protecting your face throughout the day by also using Mineral Makeup.
