Detailed instructions for use
1. Cleanse your skin
Start by cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser suitable for your skin type. This ensures your skin is clean and ready to absorb the sunscreen.

2. Apply a serum or moisturizer
If desired, apply your serum or moisturizer first, depending on your skin's needs. Make sure the hydrating products are fully absorbed before applying sunscreen.

3. Apply the sunscreen evenly
Apply a generous amount (about the size of a knotweed) of SkinCeuticals Advanced Brightening UV Defense SPF 50 evenly to your face, neck, and décolleté. Be sure to apply the product not only to the sun-exposed areas of your face, but also around your eyes, ears, and neck for complete protection.

4. Let the product work
Let the sunscreen absorb into your skin for a few minutes before applying makeup or other skincare products. This ensures that the formula is properly absorbed and the protection is optimal.

5. Repeat regularly
For the best protection, reapply sunscreen every two hours, especially when staying in the sun or if you're sweating or swimming. This is important to maintain UV protection throughout the day.
