Summer is almost over, but here in the Philippines, it feels like it’s perpetually summer! As much as we love the breeze, sand, and summer sun almost everyday, did you know that too much exposure to the sun can lead to skin damage? So before you head out in your flip-flops and sunglasses, don’t forget the most crucial item in your bag: Sunscreen.

Whether you’re a beach bum, a mountain hiker, or just chilling at a poolside party, dermatologists recommend that we apply sunscreen before heading out (and actually even indoors). Good thing that Y.O.U Beauty has everyone covered with their Sunbrella Series which offer a broad-spectrum sun protection that protects our skin against both UVA rays that cause premature aging (wrinkles and age spots) and UVB rays that causes sunburn. All the products under this line offer SPF 50+ that blocks 98% of UVB rays and PA++++ for UVA protection; however, it offers different types of formulas that match different skin types.

I know going through a lot of skincare products may feel to overwhelming or confusing, so let us simplify it for Y.O.U:

1. Y.O.U Sunbrella Triple UV Elixir Sunscreen

Recommended for: Oily skin

Say goodbye to greasy, shiny skin with this lightweight, hydrating sunscreen. Infused with Matmarine^TM, Witch Hazel, and 4D Centella Asiatica, it controls oil and soothes your skin while preventing any white cast. Ideal for a day of beach volleyball or any outdoor sports.

2. Y.O.U Sunbrella Intensive Care Aqua Sunscreen

Recommended for: Sensitive skin

This gentle, multi-benefit sunscreen offers 8X all-around protection with skin-loving ingredients like SymWhite 377 for brightening and Ceramide for extra nourishment. Think of it as a go-to sunscreen for music festivals or hiking! This sunscreen ensures your skin stays safe and cared for, no matter the adventure.

3. Y.O.U Sunbrella Tone Up UV Elixir Sunscreen

Recommended for: Dull skin

Want that Insta-worthy glow? This sunscreen may be your new BFF. With Photosensitive Smart Powder, Sunflower Seed Oil, SymWhite 377, and Hyaluronic Acid, it not only protects your skin but also brightens it, giving you a radiant complexion. Perfect for capturing every moment of your summer escapades minus the whitecast!

4. Y.O.U Sunbrella Airy Outdoor Sunscreen Spray

Recommended for: For the body (all skin types)

When talking about skincare, we shouldn’t limit ourselves to just our face, of course! Y.O.U Beauty also has something for the body. This ultra-lightweight sunscreen spray with SPF 50+ PA++++ is enriched with Niacinamide and Buddleja Officinalis Extract, which provides protection against UVA/UVB/IR rays. Plus, it’s reef-friendly, so you can dive into underwater activities without harming our precious marine life. It’s an ideal sunscreen for water activities and for days when you have to take long walks under the sun.

I’ve already tried the Y.O.U Sunbrella Airy Outdoor Sunscreen Spray and Intensive Care Aqua Sunscreen, so I can attest that it feels light on the skin. It didn’t feel tacky underneath my makeup nor did it feel sticky even after sweating. Definitely something worth considering so we can enjoy our outdoor adventures without worrying about our skin. Price starts at Php 399.
