Nivea Sun UV Face Shine Control SPF 50, 40ml

Nivea Sun UV Face Shine Control SPF 50 is a lightweight daily facial sunscreen that delivers immediate, broad-spectrum SPF 50 defence against UVA and UVB rays while keeping skin matte. Developed specifically for the delicate skin on the face, its fast-absorbing formula sinks in quickly, leaves no greasy or sticky residue, and gives an instant and long-lasting mattifying effect that absorbs excess oil from the skin’s surface.
The formula pairs five photostable chemical UV filters with a naturally derived antioxidant (Licochalcone) to help the skin protect itself against sun-induced damage and premature ageing, plus Vitamin E and glycerin for everyday comfort. It is ophthalmologically approved (eye-friendly), dermatologically tested, and made with an Ocean Respect formula that leaves out the UV filters octinoxate, oxybenzone and octocrylene — making it an easy everyday SPF for anyone who hates a shiny, heavy sunscreen feel.

Suitable Skin Types
Developed for normal and combination skin; the oil-absorbing, mattifying finish makes it especially good for oily and shine-prone skin.

Key Features & Benefits
• Broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection — guards the face against UVA and UVB rays, helping prevent sunburn, dark spots, fine lines and premature ageing.
• Instant and long-lasting matte finish — Silica and Tapioca Starch absorb excess oil and control shine through the day, so it sits well under makeup.
• Lightweight, fast-absorbing and non-greasy — a light skin feel made for the delicate facial area, ideal for daily wear.
• Photostable filter system — Tinosorb S and Ethylhexyl Triazone (Uvinul T 150) deliver strong, stable protection and help support the UVA filter Avobenzone.
• Naturally derived antioxidant (Licochalcone, from liquorice) plus Vitamin E help defend skin against free-radical and sun-induced damage.
• Glycerin adds light hydration so skin stays comfortable rather than tight.
• Ophthalmologically approved (eye-friendly), dermatologically tested, and made with an Ocean Respect formula free of octinoxate, oxybenzone and octocrylene.

How to Use
1. Apply generously and evenly to the face about 20 minutes before sun exposure, as the last step of your morning skincare.
2. Smooth over clean, dry skin; allow it to absorb fully before applying makeup.
3. Reapply regularly — at least every 2 hours, and more often after sweating, swimming or towelling.
4. Avoid contact with the eyes; keep out of reach of children.
Sunscreen is only one part of sun protection — avoid prolonged midday sun and pair with a hat and sunglasses. Reducing the amount applied lowers the level of protection, so don’t skimp.
