Two Become One — these Modern Moisturisers also Contain SPF

  • By Bryan Goh


The ‘96 Spice Girls hit song informs the formulation of these modern moisturisers below – they double up as sun protection.

Chái Guardian Angel & Bodyguard / SW1 Clinic

The anomaly in this group is also the hardest working. Not only does it cleanse hair and skin while moisturising with a gentle lather, but it also leaves an invisible shield of SPF 30 sun protection that is water-resistant up to 90 minutes in water.


LAB Series Day Rescue Defense Lotion SPF 35 PA+++

One might forget he is even wearing sunscreen with this lotion – its lightweight formula instantly sinks into the skin, creating a screen against the Sun, climate aggressors, and pollutants.


ALPHA-H Daily Essential Moisturiser SPF 50+

Free of sulfates, AHAs, and parabens, this lotion is only filled with the good stuff – pro-vitamin B5 to hydrate, vitamin E to combat environmental damage, and SPF 50+ to prime and protect.


IDS S2 Non-Tinted Sunscreen SPF50 PA+++

This lotion preps the skin with a dose of anti-inflammatory vitamin C and leaves a soft matte finish while it blocks UV rays. Every pump is also a streak-free experience thanks to its non-tinted formula.


Laneige White Dew Tone Up Fluid SPF 35 PA+++

Free of nasty components like mineral oils, talc, and synthetics, this fluid uses Chinese herbs, ginger oil, and a vitamin C fluid to provide hydration up to eight hours.


Clinique Repairwear Uplifting Firming Cream Board Spectrum SPF15

Clinique’s cream does more than preserve one’s good looks by smoothing over dry patches and encouraging the production of natural collagen; it provides SPF protection too.
