- Lightweight toning emulsion with SPF 50+ PA++++ for high-spectrum facial photoprotection. Shields against UVA, UVB, HEV, and IR radiation while evening out skin tone with a skin-adaptive satin tint.
BasicLab Protecticus is a lightweight, toning protective emulsion with a very high protection factor of SPF 50+ PA++++. The product is formulated to provide advanced, broad-spectrum photoprotection for the face. Its formula shields the skin from the harmful effects of UVA, UVB, high-energy visible (HEV) blue light, and infrared (IR) radiation. The emulsion contains pigments that adapt to the skin tone, evening it out and providing a satin finish.
Properties and Benefits
The product combines the action of organic filters with advanced active ingredients that minimize the negative effects of exposure to visible and infrared light. Tone-correcting pigments adapt to a range of complexions to deliver a natural, radiant finish and a rested appearance. The emulsion can be used as a makeup base. The main benefits of using the product include:
- Broad-spectrum UV protection: effective organic filters deliver strong UVA/UVB coverage.
- HEV blue light mitigation: targeted actives help reduce photo-induced stress and visible discoloration from screens and indoor lighting.
- IR shielding: components lessen heat-related oxidative effects for improved skin comfort.
- Skin-adaptive tint: pigments blend with many skin tones to even the complexion and act as a smooth makeup base.
How to Use
Apply an adequate amount of the emulsion to the face, neck, and décolleté about 20 minutes before sun exposure. For sufficient facial coverage, it is recommended to dispense roughly one full pump (≈0.8 g). Reapply every 2–3 hours during prolonged exposure or after sweating, swimming, or towel drying to maintain protection.
Additional Information
This product is suitable for anyone seeking comprehensive daily photoprotection with added HEV and IR defense and a subtle tint to improve skin tone. Do not use on broken or severely irritated skin. If hypersensitivity or irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a physician. It is important to remember that sunscreens do not provide 100% protection; continue to follow general sun-safety measures. The product size is 50 ml.
