The Ordinary UV Filters SPF 45 Serum
UV Filters SPF 45 Serum by The Ordinary.
Broad-spectrum protection that doesn’t mess with your skincare game.
This is The Ordinary UV Filters SPF 45 Serum, and it’s bringing serious sun defence without the side effects of the old-school goop.
This sleek little serum packs SPF 45 with broad-spectrum protection against UVA, UVB, and yep, it’s rocking PA++++—which basically means your skin is going into battle in full armour. And the best part? No white cast. Zero. Nada. Whether your skin’s fair, deep, or anywhere in between, this stuff disappears into your face like it was never there, except for the protection it leaves behind.
The texture? Think lightweight emulsion. It sinks in fast, no sticky mess, and plays nice with every other step in your routine, from your niacinamide serums to your post-shave balm. It’s designed to suit all skin types: oily, dry, sensitive, combination, Martian… doesn’t matter.
Key Ingredients, How They Work & Why They Matter:
- Homosalate – A UVB filter that absorbs those rays like a sponge. It’s the bouncer keeping the sunburns out of the club.
- Octisalate – Boosts your sunscreen’s power and helps it spread evenly. Basically, the smooth-talking wingman of the formula.
- Octocrylene – Another UVB absorber that also stabilises other sunscreen ingredients, so your protection lasts longer.
- Avobenzone – The MVP for UVA protection. The rays that cause ageing and long-term skin damage. This one’s handling those like a boss.
- Ceramides – Skin barrier superheroes. They help lock in moisture and keep your face looking smooth, healthy, and not like it’s been sandpapered by the elements.
No frills, no fluff, just serious sun protection wrapped in a skin-friendly serum that respects your face and your routine.
Use it daily. Apply liberally. Reapply if you’re out in the sun. Your older self will thank you.
