Fact: There's no point using active skincare like exfoliants and serums if you're not protecting your skin by wearing SPF every day?
That's why we made Dawn to Dusk SPF 50+ Serum, a sunscreen made for skincare lovers that:
- Is lightweight, fast-absorbing serum sunscreen with a sheer, glowy finish
- Contains broad-spectrum UVA/UVB filters to protect the skin from the sun’s damaging rays and environmentally induced, extrinsic ageing
- Leaves skin looking dewy and luminous under makeup
- Layers well with other products (i.e. no pilling!)
- Is packed with skincare ingredients including skin barrier-saviour Niacinamide, antioxidant-rich Vitamin E and soothing Aloe Vera
SPF 101: Why It Matters
Aside from the very real skin cancer risks, did you know around 80% of all signs of ageing can be attributed to unprotected UV exposure?
Sunscreens work by absorbing and scattering harmful emissions from the sun, including:
- UVA light (the rays that 'age' the skin)
- UVB light (the rays that 'burn' the skin)
Wearing a broad-spectrum, high-protection SPF daily (and reapplying every 2 hours) helps to protect against sunburn, skin cancers, premature skin ageing like fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation.
Where does it go in my routine?
- After: Serums, moisturiser and/or face oil as the last step of your morning skincare routine
- Before: Makeup
How much do I need?
3-4 full pipettes or 2 finger lengths of product. More is more when it comes to SPF. Cancer Council recommends one teaspoon or 5ml to adequately protect the face and neck, including ears.
How often should I use it?
Daily, reapplying every 2 hours or when going out in the sun.
Pro tips
- Apply sunscreen in layers or by sectioning the face into different quadrants (forehead, cheeks, nose etc.) to make sure you're using enough SPF
- Reapply over makeup using a beauty blender by gently patting product into the skin
- Never mix serums, moisturisers or makeup products like highlighter or bronzer with your sunscreen, as this will dilute the SPF protection
- Allow sunscreen to fully dry down before applying makeup to avoid pilling
- Apply SPF to the backs of hands before driving to prevent UV damage
- Don't forget, SPF is just one part of sun protection! Wear a hat, sunnies and protective clothing, and seek shade where possible

I love the texture, but I find it takes a long time to sink in. Unless I wait 20+ minutes before doing my makeup, it's a bit too dewy.

This is an exceptional product . It goes on beautifully and luxuriously. It does not pill or sting the eyes. Then it dries down looking velvety smooth. I cannot recommend this product enough. I have so many sunblocks there is nothing like this on the market.

- ANN D.Verified BuyerReviewingDawn to Dusk SPF 50+ SerumI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoExcellent product
Gives excellent coverage of a large age/sun damage related patch of darkened skin. Goes on smoothly and hydrates whilst concealing the patch skin.
- Parveen A.Verified BuyerReviewingDawn to Dusk SPF 50+ SerumI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoNo white marks
I have Asian skin and was concerned it may leave a white screen but I couldn't have been more wrong. It's easily applied over serum and face cream and doesn't have a heavy build up and best of all it gives full protection from harmful sun rays
