A lightweight, non-nano physical sunscreen that provides powerful broad-spectrum protection while soothing and controlling sebum. Tailored for Mauritius's heat and humidity, its air-fit texture offers a comfortable, matte finish without feeling heavy, making it an ideal daily shield for oily and sensitive skin.

If you find most sunscreens feel greasy, heavy, or irritate your skin, this physical formula offers a refreshing alternative. It's designed to protect without clogging pores or causing sensitivity.

• Texture: A soft, lightweight cream with a beige tint.
• Finish: Soft matte, non-sticky finish that helps control shine.
• Key Benefit: Soothing sun protection with a natural tone-up effect.
• Best For: Oily, Combination, Normal, and Sensitive Skin Types.
• White Cast: Minimal to moderate tone-up effect. May be noticeable on deeper skin tones but often blends to a natural finish.

1. Cleanser: Start with a clean face.
2. THIS PRODUCT (AM): Apply as the final step in your morning routine. See "How to Use" for the correct amount.
3. Moisturiser (PM): In the evening, after cleansing, use a moisturiser to support skin repair overnight.

Note: Already own a sunscreen? Finish that first to avoid waste (substitute, don’t stack).

• Minimalist (3 Steps): 1) Cleanser → 2) Moisturiser (if needed) → 3) THIS PRODUCT.
• Optional Additions: You can apply a hydrating toner or a targeted serum (like Vitamin C) before your moisturiser for added benefits.
• Wait Times: Allow serums and moisturisers to absorb for 1-2 minutes before applying sunscreen to prevent pilling.

This sunscreen is for daytime use only. Your evening routine should focus on removing it thoroughly and repairing your skin.

• Essential (2 Steps): 1) Double Cleanse (Oil Cleanser to dissolve sunscreen, followed by a Water-Based Cleanser) → 2) Moisturiser.
• Texture Rule: Always apply products from the thinnest texture to the thickest.

• Daily Use — AM Only:
• Amount: Use the "two-finger" rule. Squeeze a line of sunscreen onto your index and middle fingers from base to tip. This is the correct amount for your face and neck.
• Apply to: Face, neck, and any other sun-exposed areas. Apply 15 minutes before sun exposure.
• Method: Apply gently and pat into the skin. To minimize white cast, apply in thin layers and build up, ensuring each layer is blended well.
• Frequency: Every morning, as the final step of your skincare routine. Reapply every 2 hours if in direct sun, or after swimming or heavy sweating.
• If-This / Then-That:
• White cast seems strong? Ensure your skin is fully dry from previous steps. Apply the sunscreen over a lightweight gel moisturiser for a smoother blend.
• Feels a bit drying? If you have combination or dry-leaning skin, apply a hydrating moisturiser before the sunscreen.
• Under makeup? This sunscreen acts as a great mattifying and pore-blurring primer. Allow it to set for 2-3 minutes before applying makeup.
• Safety: Avoid contact with eyes. For external use only. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

• Daily: Use this sunscreen every single morning as the last step of your routine, regardless of other products used.
• Mauritius Note: Sun protection is non-negotiable every day in our climate. The SPF50+ and PA++++ ratings provide robust protection against both burning (UVB) and aging (UVA) rays.
• Safety: Consistent daily use is the most effective way to prevent sun spots, premature aging, and protect your skin health.

• Immediate: Skin appears brighter with a subtle tone-up effect. The finish is soft, matte, and shine-free. Redness may appear slightly calmed.
• 2–4 Weeks: With consistent daily use, you may notice less sun-induced irritation and sensitivity. Sebum production may feel more balanced throughout the day.
• 4–8+ Weeks: The primary benefit is preventative. Consistent use protects against the formation of new sun spots, fine lines, and other signs of photoaging, preserving your skin's long-term health and even tone.

• Why use a tested SPF, not a DIY mix? Laboratory-tested sunscreens like this one guarantee a specific level of protection (SPF50+ PA++++). DIY sunscreen mixes with coconut oil or other ingredients provide unreliable and unsafe protection, leading to sun damage.

• Works Well With: Most skincare ingredients, including Vitamin C, Niacinamide, and Hyaluronic Acid. Applying it over a hydrating serum can enhance the finish.
• Use Carefully With: Very rich, oily moisturisers. Applying this matte sunscreen over a heavy, occlusive cream may lead to pilling. Allow heavy creams to fully absorb before application.
• Application Order: Always the final step in your AM skincare routine, before makeup.

• Oily to Combination Skin: Excellent. The matte finish and sebum-controlling properties are ideal for managing shine in humid weather.
• Sensitive & Acne-Prone Skin: Highly Recommended. As a physical sunscreen with high concentrations of soothing Centella Asiatica, it is very gentle and unlikely to cause irritation or breakouts.
• Normal Skin: Good. Provides a natural, shine-free finish.
• Dry Skin: Use with caution. The matte finish might feel drying. It is recommended to apply a generous layer of moisturiser before using this sunscreen.

• Sun Protection: Offers high-level, broad-spectrum defense against UVA and UVB rays.
• Oil Control: Helps to manage excess sebum and leaves a lasting matte finish.
• Redness & Sensitivity: The high concentration of Centella Asiatica Extract (35.8%) helps to soothe and calm irritated skin.
• Uneven Skin Tone: Niacinamide helps to brighten the complexion and improve the appearance of redness and dark spots over time.

• Fragrance Status: Contains essential oils (Bergamot, Rose, Geranium) which give it a very faint, fresh scent. Intensity: 1/5.
• EU Allergens: Contains Citronellol, Geraniol, and Linalool, which are naturally occurring components of the essential oils used.
• Recommendation: While formulated for sensitive skin, those with known allergies to essential oils should perform a patch test before use.

• Who Should Use: Ideal for individuals with oily, combination, or sensitive skin looking for a daily matte-finish sunscreen.
• Who Should Use with Caution: Those with very dry skin may find the matte finish insufficiently hydrating. Individuals with sensitivities to essential oils should be cautious.
• Patch Test Protocol: Before first use, apply a pea-sized amount to a small, discreet area, such as behind the ear or on the inner jawline. Wait 24-48 hours to check for any signs of irritation like redness, itching, or burning. If a reaction occurs, discontinue use.
• Kids/Teens: The gentle mineral formula is generally suitable for teens. For younger children, always consult with a paediatrician or dermatologist.

• Finish: Dries down to a comfortable, soft-matte finish. It is not sticky or greasy.

• Issue: Pilling or balling up.
  • Fix: This is often caused by applying too much product at once or not allowing previous skincare layers to absorb. Apply the sunscreen in thin layers and wait 1-2 minutes after your moisturiser.
• Issue: The white cast is too strong.
  • Fix: Warm the product in your hands before applying. Pat it into the skin instead of rubbing. You can also use a damp makeup sponge to gently press and blend it in for a more seamless finish.
• Issue: It feels too dry on my skin.
  • Fix: Apply a more hydrating moisturiser or a layer of hyaluronic acid serum before the sunscreen. This provides a hydrating base and prevents the matte formula from feeling tight.

• Humid Summer: This sunscreen is perfect for the hot and humid Mauritian climate. Its matte finish helps control the inevitable shine and sweat, keeping your skin comfortable all day.
• Drier Winter/AC Exposure: During the cooler, drier months or if you spend a lot of time in air-conditioning, you may need extra hydration. Layering it over a good moisturiser will ensure your skin stays balanced.

At Adilsons, we are committed to authenticity, integrity, and your well-being. We carefully curate our selection of K-beauty products, ensuring they are 100% genuine and sourced directly from official channels in South Korea. Our promise is to provide you with transparent, evidence-based information to help you make mindful and effective choices for your skin.

1. How is this different from the SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum?
   The Air-Fit Suncream Plus is a physical (mineral) sunscreen with a matte finish and a tone-up effect, ideal for oily and sensitive skin. The Hyalu-Cica Sun Serum is a chemical sunscreen with a dewy, hydrating finish and no white cast, better suited for normal to dry skin.
2. Is the tone-up effect suitable for my deep skin tone?
   The beige tint helps it blend better than stark white mineral sunscreens, but a tone-up effect will be present. For deeper skin tones, it may appear as a slight brightening or, if applied heavily, a cast. We recommend applying in thin, blended layers or considering the Hyalu-Cica version for a completely transparent finish.
3. Can I skip my moisturiser when using this?
   If you have oily skin, you might find this sunscreen provides enough moisture for daytime, especially in Mauritius's humidity. If you have normal, combination, or dry skin, we recommend applying a moisturiser underneath for optimal hydration.
