iS Clinical Eclipse SPF 50+

iS Clinical Eclipse SPF 50+ uses only mineral UV filters — Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide — which are widely considered the safest sunscreen actives during pregnancy and breastfeeding. These physical filters sit on the skin's surface and are not absorbed into the bloodstream, unlike some chemical UV filters. The formula is also free from parabens, phthalates, and sulphates. However, as with any skincare product, we recommend consulting your doctor or midwife before use during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding.

Yes, in two key ways. First, consistent SPF 50+ protection is one of the most effective measures against premature ageing caused by UV exposure, including fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots. Second, the formula includes Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that helps neutralise free radicals caused by environmental stressors, providing an additional layer of defence against photoageing.

While Eclipse SPF 50+ contains moisturising ingredients such as Vitamin E and Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride that help hydrate and soften the skin, it is primarily a sunscreen rather than a replacement for your daily moisturiser. For best results, apply your regular moisturiser first and then layer Eclipse SPF 50+ on top as the final step in your morning routine before makeup.

Yes. Eclipse SPF 50+ is water-resistant for up to 40 minutes, making it suitable for outdoor activities, exercise, and light water exposure. However, for prolonged swimming or heavy sweating, you should reapply after 40 minutes to maintain full protection. Always reapply immediately after towel drying.

Absolutely. Eclipse SPF 50+ is specifically designed to work beautifully under makeup. The lightweight, non-greasy matte finish creates a smooth canvas that acts as an excellent primer. It absorbs quickly without pilling, so your foundation and concealer sit evenly on top. Many users find it enhances the longevity of their makeup throughout the day.

Reapply at least every 2 hours during prolonged sun exposure. If you are swimming or sweating, reapply after 40 minutes of water activity or perspiration, and immediately after towel drying. For daily indoor use with minimal sun exposure, a single morning application may be sufficient, but reapplication is always recommended for optimal protection.

iS Clinical Eclipse SPF 50+ is widely regarded as one of the best mineral sunscreens for sensitive and reactive skin types. The formula is hypoallergenic, paraben-free, and free from chemical UV filters that can trigger irritation. The pharmaceutical-grade mineral filters provide gentle yet powerful protection, and the lightweight texture means it won't clog pores or cause breakouts.

No. Eclipse SPF 50+ is formulated with transparent Titanium Dioxide and micronised Zinc Oxide, which are designed to blend seamlessly into the skin without leaving a chalky or white residue. The ultra-sheer formula absorbs quickly and leaves a smooth, matte finish suitable for all skin tones.

iS Clinical Eclipse SPF 50+ is a 100% mineral (physical) sunscreen. It uses Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide as its active UV filters, which sit on the skin's surface and physically deflect harmful UVA and UVB rays. There are no chemical sunscreen filters in this formula, making it an excellent choice for those who prefer mineral-only sun protection.
