Enhanced Weightless Sunscreens

Glossier Launches a New, More Effective Version of its Sunscreen

Glossier, a leader in innovative skincare and beauty products, is unveiling a much-anticipated addition to its lineup: the SPF 50 version of its renowned Invisible Shield. This new formula represents a significant upgrade, offering enhanced sun protection with a chemical SPF 50 rating, surpassing the previous SPF 35 formula. What sets the Invisible Shield apart is its distinctive clear gel texture, providing a seamless application and a lightweight feel on the skin.

In addition to the upgraded formula, Glossier has made notable improvements to the product's packaging. The traditional plastic bottle has been replaced with a sleek tube design, offering a more modern aesthetic and practical benefits. This new packaging format accommodates a remarkable 60% increase in product capacity compared to the original, ensuring consumers get more value and longevity from each purchase.

The new sunscreen can be purchased through the Glossier website.
