Medical-grade SPF developed for daily protection and post-procedure skin. Fotoskinox SPF 50+ shields skin after peels, microneedling, laser and other professional treatments — exactly when new skin is most vulnerable to UV-induced pigmentation.
Broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection in elegant, non-comedogenic textures that sit well under make-up, formulated in Skymedic's ISO 13485-certified Barcelona laboratory. Practitioners recommend SPF as the final step of every morning routine, all year round — UVA passes through cloud and glass even in a UK winter.
Cruelty-free, with free UK delivery on orders over £100 and next-day delivery available.
Choosing your medical-grade SPF 50+
Every Fotoskinox sunscreen is SPF 50+ with broad-spectrum protection, so the choice comes down to where you'll wear it and how you want it to look.
- Fotoskinox Cream SPF 50+ (£68, 50 ml) — our best-selling face sunscreen. 3D titanium dioxide and encapsulated filters protect against UVA, UVB, infrared, visible and blue light, and form a film against pollution.
- Fotoskinox Cream SPF 50+ Color (£68) — the same protection with a sheer tint that evens out tone; useful when you want to skip foundation, and because tinted formulas add protection against visible light.
- Fotoskinox Hydrabody SPF 50+ (£42, 200 ml) — a bi-phase body sunscreen with peptides, astaxanthin and vitamin B5.
- Fotoskinox Sun Kit (£96) — face and body together, designed for after peels, laser and depigmentation treatments.
For extra support from within, Fotoskinox capsules are an oral antioxidant formula for people who spend a lot of time outdoors — a complement to sunscreen, never a replacement.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need SPF in the UK in winter?
Yes, if you are treating pigmentation, using retinoids or recovering from a procedure. UVA levels stay significant all year and pass through cloud and window glass.
How much sunscreen should I apply?
About a quarter of a teaspoon for the face, or two finger-lengths for face and neck. Most people apply half that, which roughly halves the protection. Reapply every two hours outdoors.
Which SPF after microneedling, peels or laser?
Use a high-protection, fragrance-light formula as soon as your practitioner allows, usually from the day after treatment. Fotoskinox SPF 50+ was developed for post-procedure skin; see our post-procedure SPF guide.
Will it sit well under make-up?
Yes. Let it set for a few minutes before applying make-up, or choose the tinted Color version.
Does SPF help with dark spots?
It is the single most important step. Without daily protection, pigmentation treatments can't hold their results; see the dark spots edit.
