Dermalogica Invisible Physical Defense SPF30 mineral face sunscreen 1.7 fl oz — lightweight, non-greasy, blue-light protection

Dermalogica Invisible Physical Defense SPF30 is a daily facial sunscreen formulated to disappear into skin rather than leave a white cast. It combines non-nano zinc oxide as the sole sun-filtering active with calming bio-actives and antioxidants to help maintain comfort for sensitive or reactive skin. The texture is designed for everyday wear under makeup or alone, providing both sun and high-energy visible (blue light) environmental defense.

How does this sunscreen feel on the skin and will it leave a white cast?

The finish is lightweight and sheer, created to minimize the thick, chalky residue common to many mineral sunscreens. It spreads easily and absorbs to a natural, non-greasy finish that works on a range of skin tones. Users report comfortable daily wear under makeup.

• Non-nano zinc oxide as the single mineral filter for broad-spectrum protection
• Formulated to blend without visible white film
• Light, weightless texture suitable for layering under cosmetics

Is this suitable for sensitive or easily irritated skin?

Yes — the formula omits common irritants and includes a Mushroom Complex to help soothe skin prone to redness or dryness caused by UV exposure. Antioxidant green tea supports environmental defense without heavy fragrances, making it a gentle choice for reactive skin types.

• Bio-active Mushroom Complex for calming support
• Designed for normal, combination, oily, and sensitive skin
• Clean, non-nano mineral formulation with low irritation potential

Does it protect against more than just UV rays?

The product provides broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection while also offering defense against high-energy visible light (blue light) commonly emitted by screens and indoor lighting. Antioxidant green tea helps neutralize free radicals generated by environmental stressors.

• SPF 30 for daily UV protection
• Added blue light protection to reduce potential screen-related stress
• Antioxidant support to help counteract environmental aggressors

How should I use Invisible Physical Defense in my routine?

Apply liberally to face about 30 minutes before sun exposure and reapply as needed, especially after sweating, towel-drying, or prolonged sun exposure. It pairs well with serums and moisturizers and sits comfortably under makeup for everyday protection.

• Use as the final step of your morning skincare routine before makeup
• Reapply throughout the day per sun-exposure needs
• 1.7 fl oz size fits into travel or everyday cosmetic kits
