Protect + Maintain | Daily Defense Against What Undoes Your Progress

You've done the work to correct and renew — this step makes sure it lasts. Clear Defense SPF 45 is a physician-recommended broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high-dose Niacinamide complex that protects against UVA, UVB, and Infrared Radiation — the three external triggers most responsible for reactivating hyperpigmentation and accelerating skin aging.

What It Does

Shields skin from UV and infrared damage while visibly smoothing tone, minimizing pores, and reducing redness — all in one lightweight, fast-absorbing formula.

Why It Matters

Sun exposure is the #1 reason dark spots return. Skipping SPF undoes months of corrective work. This is the step that protects your results.

How to Use

Apply every morning as your final skincare step. Reapply every 2 hours in direct sun. Pairs with Vitamin C and Hydrate & Plump Barrier Protection Serum for a complete morning routine.
