VITADERM, a trusted leader in professional skincare, has unveiled its latest innovation in sun protection: Photo Defence Tinted SPF 50, a next-generation mineral sunscreen designed for everyday wear. This advanced formula combines broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection with sheer, skin-enhancing coverage—bridging the gap between effective suncare and modern skincare.

As awareness of UVA and UVB damage continues to grow, dermatologists and skincare professionals agree that daily sun protection is essential for preventing premature ageing, pigmentation, and sun damage. However, many consumers still avoid sunscreen due to heavy textures, white cast, or greasy finishes.

VITADERM’s newest tinted sunscreen challenges these concerns with a lightweight, breathable, and water-resistant formula that blends seamlessly into the skin while delivering high-performance protection.

“Sun protection is the foundation of healthy skin, yet many people skip SPF because it feels uncomfortable or looks unnatural,” explains Craig Sydenham, Founder of VITADERM. “Photo Defence Tinted SPF 50 was developed to feel weightless on the skin while offering powerful mineral protection.”

Mineral-Based SPF 50 Protection Backed by Science

Photo Defence Tinted SPF 50 is formulated with Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide, two proven mineral UV filters that work by reflecting and scattering harmful rays away from the skin. This mineral shield helps protect against:

• Sunburn

• Hyperpigmentation

• Fine lines and premature skin ageing

The formula is further enriched with Vitamin E (Tocopherol), a powerful antioxidant that helps neutralise free radicals caused by sun exposure and environmental stressors, supporting long-term skin health.

Tinted Sunscreen That Enhances Natural Radiance

Available in three adaptive shades – Light, Medium, and Dark – Photo Defence Tinted SPF 50 effortlessly evens out skin tone while maintaining a natural, hydrated finish. The lightweight tint enhances the complexion without clogging pores or feeling heavy.

Designed for all skin types, including sensitive skin, this multitasking sunscreen can be:

• Applied as the final step in a morning skincare routine

• Used as a makeup primer for smooth, flawless application

• Worn alone for a fresh, no-makeup glow

“Today’s consumers want protection and beauty in one product,” says Sydenham. “This formula protects, perfects, and breathes with the skin.”

Everyday Sun Protection Designed for Modern Lifestyles

Housed in a sleek 50ml flip-cap tube, Photo Defence Tinted SPF 50 reflects VITADERM’s commitment to skin barrier integrity, advanced sun protection, and everyday wearability. The compact design makes it ideal for daily use at home or on the go.

Protect. Perfect. Glow.
The future of daily mineral sun protection has arrived.
