The last step of your skincare

At the end of your skincare, squeeze out a moderate amount of the pink lotion.

Smooth more over the neck, arms and legs, anywhere the sun will reach.
- 4

Sun care, 365 days a year
A rosy sun base to reach for every morning, so skin looks brighter and makeup stays put from first coffee to sunset.
Good to know
- The pink tone-up comes from titanium dioxide and iron oxides, so it leaves a soft tint by design.
- Keep it away from your eyes; it can sting.
- Not labelled water-resistant. Reapply after swimming, sweating or towelling off.
- Contains fragrance and sweet orange oil. Skin irritation test completed, per A’pieu.
- Comes in a 50 mL tube. The current pack reads “Tone-Up Sun Base EX”.
