GLOSSIER never fails to impress us, from the You fragrance to the Lash Slick Mascara, Future Dew to Cloud Paint, there is nothing we don't love.
Now, there's a new skincare favourite to add to your basket perfect for the summer months - and all year for that matter.
Glossier Invisible Shield SPF50, £32
Glossier has launched the new Invisible Shield SPF50, which retails for £32.
The Invisible Shield is, yes you guessed it, a sunscreen, as it provides factor SPF50 protection from harmful UV rays.
How to de-clutter if you have a beauty stash to last you a lifetime
However, this clear sunscreen also doubles up as a primer, which means it protects, hydrates and primes - quite the triple threat.
Glossier has paid extra attention to listening to shoppers' woes when it comes to finding a sunscreen for the face and has ensured that the Invisible Shield SPF50 does not leave a white cast or any residue, or pile when applied under makeup.
This lightweight formula is a chemical sunscreen, which promises to leave no greasiness or white cast but glides onto the skin, hydrates and leaves a flawless finish.
The Invisible Shield features chemical sun filters to provide sun protection, and is also enriched with rice phyto-compounds and aloe leaf juice, which combine to hydrate the skin, while also protecting from environmental aggressors, such as pollution, and blue light.
In short, this product protects our skin from all the elements, so it is no surprise it has already received high praise.
While it provides the necessary protection against damaging sun's rays, it acts as a primer to blur the skin and create the perfect base to apply makeup on top without disrupting the products layered over.
Glossier has stressed the importance of applying sun protection regularly when in the sun (as well as all year round), so they have created innovative packaging to serve as a reminder to reapply your sun protection when the colour of the "SPF50" on the tube changes colour.
The website reads: "The colour of the “spf50” on the tube will change within 10-15 seconds under UV exposure, serving as a reminder to always re-apply your SPF! The colour changes back within 15 minutes."
Considering SPF should be worn all year round(yes, even in Winter) this is a handy reminder to show you how UV exposure can affect your skin - even when you may not realise it.
Primers are genius as they transform your skin into an even blank canvas, and Invisible Shield does precisely that while also gives the skin an added boost of luminosity for a radiant and dewy complexion.
While some sunscreens can leave your skin feeling greasy or sticky, this sun protection and the primer duo do not, as the cream dries within seconds but still boosts your skin's radiance.
Glossier's Invisible Shield is cruelty-free, vegan, and non-comedogenic, which means it does not clog the pores which can lead to breakouts.
It's also been tested by dermatologists and has been considered suitable for all skin tones and types, especially those with sensitive skin.
The results from Glossier's shoppers are quite impressive, as 100% of customers insisted the product was "perfect to use daily after two weeks".
Research carried out by Glossier found 97% of customers noticed their skin looked and felt "looks & feels "smooth, primed and perfected", it was lightweight and left a "fresh" feeling, but also blurred the complexion for a flawless finish after eight hours.
One happy shopper wrote: "This is honestly one of its kind. It's super lightweight and has a gel consistency, smells like fresh lemons and oranges.
"If you're super sensitive this one might not be for you but it worked completely fine on me. It feels slightly silicon-y while not mattifying your skin and leaving you with a nice healthy glow.
"Perfect throughout the year for everyday wear. Just keep in mind to use an SPF 50 and a water-resistant one when you're swimming or exercising."
Another gushed: "Love love LOVE this sunscreen- it’s such a nice, lightweight formula! I have very dry skin so I haven’t found it too oily, and it hasn’t pilled under makeup for me (I mainly use only stretch concealer).
"It feels so nice on the skin and I’m so happy it finally came out in SPF50 :) highly recommend."
A third added: "I love it! It absorbs so well and is so light doesn’t give a white cast at all. Just need a bigger size of it."
