Skinceuticals Ultra Facial Defense Cream

Knowing how well the Skinceuticals Phloretin CF serum worked with my hyper-pigmentation I decided to purchase the Ultra Facial Defence cream to protect the good work the serum had done. I also wanted to start using this to see if it helped with reducing the left over pigmentation marks.

This product comes in 30 ml tube and you really only need a small amount of product to cover your face. It works as a moisturiser and great makeup base but its real super-power is that it contains SPF 50 which protects against nasty UVA and UVB rays. It's those rays that cause hyper-pigmentation and photo-ageing and it's those rays that I really wanted to stop because no-one wants pigmentation marks on their face do they?

This is a firm favourite with Sienna Miller, Gwyneth Paltrow and the celebrity that sold it for me was Katherine Heigl. Katherine's skin just always looks flawless, doesn't it? It does cost £31 but isn't cheap so I'm going to really test this out before I recommend it. I've only been using it for a few days so I'll keep you posted.

You can find out more on the Skinceuticals website or purchase it via Bliss World or Innercore.co.uk. Have you tried this product before? What was your opinion if you have?
