Dermalogica Invisible Physical Defence Mineral Sunscreen SPF30 50ml is a lightweight facial sunscreen that provides broad-spectrum SPF30 protection using non-nano Zinc Oxide, a mineral UV filter. Designed to blend easily across different skin tones without the thick white residue often associated with mineral sunscreens, it offers a comfortable way to protect your skin from UVA and UVB rays as part of your daily skincare routine.

This ultra-sheer formula combines mineral sun protection with a Bioactive Mushroom Complex, antioxidant Green Tea and moisturising ingredients to help skin feel comfortable throughout the day. It also provides additional blue light defence, as stated by Dermalogica. The smooth, weightless texture makes it particularly appealing if you prefer physical sunscreens but want a finish that works well over your usual moisturiser and beneath makeup.

Suitable for: All skin types, including sensitive skin. Particularly useful for normal, combination and oily skin, as well as skin concerned with dryness, dehydration or visible redness.

Benefits:

  • Broad-spectrum SPF30 protection: Helps protect skin against UVA and UVB exposure that contributes to visible signs of premature skin ageing.
  • Ultra-sheer mineral formula: Designed to blend easily into different skin tones without leaving a thick, chalky white finish.
  • Blue light defence: Formulated to provide additional protection against blue light exposure.
  • Comfort for sensitive skin: The Bioactive Mushroom Complex helps soothe the appearance of redness and dryness associated with UV exposure.
  • Antioxidant care: Green Tea provides antioxidant support against environmental factors.
  • Lightweight daily wear: Sits comfortably over moisturiser and can be worn beneath makeup.

Key ingredients:

  • Non-Nano Zinc Oxide: The mineral sunscreen ingredient responsible for broad-spectrum SPF30 UVA and UVB protection.
  • Bioactive Mushroom Complex: Includes Cordyceps and mushroom extracts selected to help comfort skin and reduce the appearance of UV-related redness and dryness.
  • Green Tea Extract: An antioxidant-rich botanical ingredient that helps defend against free radical damage associated with environmental exposure.
  • Argan Oil: Included within the formula to provide conditioning care and maintain a comfortable skin feel.
  • Sodium Hyaluronate: A moisture-binding ingredient that helps support skin hydration.

How to use:

  • Complete your morning cleansing, serum and moisturising routine.
  • Apply Dermalogica Invisible Physical Defence Mineral Sunscreen SPF30 50ml generously and evenly over the face and neck.
  • Dermalogica recommends applying approximately 30 minutes before sun exposure.
  • Allow the sunscreen to settle before applying makeup.
  • Reapply at least every two hours during sun exposure and immediately after swimming, heavy perspiration or towel drying.
  • Use alongside sensible sun protection measures, including seeking shade and wearing protective clothing.

Expert tips:

  • If your skin feels dry, apply your preferred Dermalogica moisturiser first, allowing it to settle before applying sunscreen.
  • Use enough sunscreen to achieve adequate coverage rather than applying only a thin layer as you would with a moisturiser.
  • Remember exposed areas such as the neck and ears when applying your daily sun protection.

Good to know:

  • Uses non-nano Zinc Oxide as its mineral UV filter.
  • Designed for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
  • Provides SPF30 protection but does not offer complete protection against sunlight.
  • Do not rely on a single morning application for protection throughout extended outdoor activities.

Yes, this product blends to invisible on all skin tones, even darker ones. It comes out white because of the Zinc Oxide in the formula, but the white appearance dissipates as you blend it onto the skin.
For this product Dermalogica have strived to provide the highest SPF possible while maintaining the best wearability. To provide a higher SPF, they had to compromise wearability, and they wanted this product to blend to invisible on all skin tones. Dermatologists typically recommend using a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30, which blocks 97% of UVB rays. SPF 50 blocks 98% of UVB rays, so the difference in UV rays blocked is only about 1 percent. (No sunscreen blocks all UV rays.)
Yes, this product is replacing Super Sensitive Shield SPF 30.
Yes! With all sunscreens wait until the sunscreen feels “dry” before you apply make-up over the top.
Application, by far! While SPF numbers matter, whether you will wear a sunscreen daily and correctly matters more.

Why this mineral SPF fits so easily into a daily routine
Ultra-sheer mineral finish

Designed to blend in smoothly across a wide range of skin tones without the heavier feel often linked with mineral sunscreens.

Daily broad-spectrum cover

Zinc oxide helps provide SPF30 UVA and UVB protection as part of your regular morning skincare routine.

Comfort for sensitive skin

The lightweight texture is made for comfortable everyday wear, including skin that can feel more easily unsettled.

Easy under makeup

Sits neatly over moisturiser and serum, making it a practical final step before makeup or a bare-skin finish.

What it does
  • Provides daily mineral sun protection with an ultra-sheer finish
  • Helps protect against UVA, UVB and blue light exposure, as stated
  • Supports a calm, balanced-looking complexion with comfort-focused ingredients
  • Works as a simple final morning step that layers easily into most routines

A useful choice when you want a physical sunscreen that feels lighter, looks more seamless and is easy to wear every day.

Suitability

Suitable for all skin tones and skin types, including sensitive skin and skin that prefers mineral sunscreens. It is especially helpful if you want everyday SPF without a noticeable cast or thick finish, and it works well for routines where sunscreen needs to sit comfortably under makeup or over your usual moisturiser and serum.

Good to know: Apply generously to the face and neck as the last step of your morning routine, ideally 15 to 30 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply at least every 2 hours when in the sun, and more often after swimming, sweating or towel drying. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and use alongside sensible sun habits.
