ad If your sunscreen stings, burns, or breaks you out... it’s not your skin—it’s your sunscreen. A lot of sunscreens aren’t made for sensitive, reactive skin. Daily Skin Defence SPF 45 is different. It’s dermatologically developed specifically for sensitive skin.

It uses invisible zine for broad-spectrum protection—UVA, UVB, even blue light—without that heavy, chalky feel. Plus Vitamin B5 and E to support your skin barrier, and hydrating, oil-free ingredients that won’t clog pores.
And crucially no sulphates, no soap, no perfume, no alcohol.

Elave is an Irish, family company lead by dermatologists with decades of expertise. If you struggled to tolerate sunscreen— this is where I’d start.
