How to protect your skin from the sun and computer screen

The sunscreen features a universal tint to ensure skin is never left with white streaks, and harnesses natural melanin’s photo-protective compounds. Use the two-in-one product as both a sunscreen and a primer, leaving skin soft, silky and ready for makeup.
- Oclipse Smart Tone SPF 50 (45 mL, $70): This highly advanced sunscreen features a sheer tinted primer to match any skin tone without the white streaks of traditional sunscreen. A blend of iron oxides and mica create a pressure-released color system for natural-looking, customizable color. Formulated to protect against both UVA/UVB and HEV (high energy visible) light, and IR-A (infrared rays), the sunscreen features an exclusive 12-hour time-release antioxidant complex to guard against photodamage.

How to reveal radiant healthy skin
- Offects Exfoliating Cleanser ($39): Formulated with exfoliating micro-beads and the free-radical-fighting antioxidant vitamin E, this skin-smoothing cleanser not only removes dead skin cells and washes away surface oils and impurities, but it also stimulates the production of collagen, which is key after months of collagen-destroying sun exposure.
- Offects Exfoliating Polish ($67): Packed with the antioxidant protection of vitamins A, C, and E, as well as ultra-fine magnesium crystals to promote healthy circulation and increase epidermal turnover, this exfoliating scrub instantly polishes your complexion, restores its healthy glow, and leaves you with smoother, softer, more even-toned skin.
- Oraser Correcting Hand and Body Scrub ($65): This dual-action scrub utilizes both chemical and manual exfoliators to reveal your most radiant, renewed skin along with powerful sugar crystal which physically remove dead skin cells. The scrub is also infused with mega-moisturizing ingredients like shea butter, mango seed oil, and rosemary leaf extract, as well as cetyl dimethicone, a silicone that helps enhance the skin’s moisture barrier and lock in long-term hydration. It’s just what your hands and body need after a summer of fun in the sun.
Beauty sleep
- Ossential Growth Factor Serum Plus ($148) rejuvenates your skin during sleep. It keeps surface skin supple with concentrated retinol, while epidermal growth factors increase cell regeneration and reduces visible signs of aging.
