HOW TO USE
Apply to clean skin, as the last step of morning skin care. Spread a good amount of product on your face and neck, at least 10-15 minutes before going outside. If you are going to be exposed directly to the sun and it is a hot day, although it provides long-lasting protection, it is a good idea to reapply the product every few hours. Avoid contact with eyes.
FAQS
FAQS
What is the difference between the Dermatologist SPF30 sunscreen and the SPF50 sunscreen?
Both formulas protect against UVB rays, which are responsible for sunburn, and UVA rays, which are largely responsible for skin aging. In fact, both perform outstandingly in the UVA range: far exceeding the EU standard of 1/3, close to the SPF. (Boots 5-star rating) which means above-average UVA protection even with SPF 30 (PPD 39) and fantastic with SPF 50 (PPD 54). The difference is that while SPF 30 filters 96.6% of harmful rays, SPF 50 filters 98%. If you have issues with hyperpigmentation spots, we recommend choosing the Dermatologist SPF50 sunscreen year-round; if you don’t have this problem, then the Dermatologist SPF 30 sunscreen will be a great choice. The SPF 30 has a light creamy lotion texture, while the SPF 50, having higher protection, "in exchange" slightly increases the texture, making it a bit "thicker," more creamy.
What is the difference between Dermatologist Sunscreen SPF50 and Dermatologist Face Fluid SPF50?
Both formulas provide equally high and outstanding sun protection, but while Dermatologist Sunscreen SPF 50 is a creamier formula with more intense hydration, Dermatologist Face Fluid SPF 50 is a lightweight liquid, specifically optimized for the face. The latter is an excellent choice if you have oily skin and don't like creamy textures, or simply because you prefer sunscreens with an incredibly light texture and an almost imperceptible finish.
Do I have to reapply every few hours?
What you need to know: An SPF 50 sunscreen, if used in the morning in sufficient amounts (let's say half or more of a tablespoon for face and neck) and your daily life consists of going from home to the office, will provide you with an adequate amount of protection all day. Otherwise, according to the official recommendation of the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration), sunscreens should be reapplied every two hours if you are constantly exposed to the sun. If you use this product at the beach, you should definitely reapply it every few hours.
Is it suitable for skin with rosacea?
With rosacea-prone skin, unfortunately, it is difficult to know things for certain in advance. But you should know that this is a chemical (organic) sunscreen with conventionally used UV filters, so we recommend EVY foams with a higher proportion of mineral/inorganic sunscreens or new generation filters for your skin.
I have problematic skin (often with acne and oiliness), can I use it as well?
Yes, feel free to try it :) The Altruist SPF 50 sunscreen has a slightly creamier lotion texture, but it is not heavy or sticky and does not cause a greasy feeling. Additionally, it does not clog pores, so it can be part of your routine. On the other hand, you should keep in mind that it leaves a luminous finish. If texture is very important to you, then we recommend applying Dermatologist Face Fluid SPF 50 on your face.
My skin is dry. Could it be suitable for me?
Yes, it’s even a super choice! Altruist SPF 50 is a formula that offers a wide range of protection, which we personally love since it has superior protection compared to the usual in the UVA range. It is a creamy and moisturizing formula that integrates very well into your daytime routine for dry skin.
Does Altruist use chemical or physical (mineral) filters?
Altruist uses physical (mineral) and chemical filters to achieve optimal protection against sun rays.
Why is Altruist available at such an affordable price?
Altruist products have been developed by experts who want to change their attitude towards the sunscreen industry and prevent as many cases of skin cancer as possible; with low costs and prices, they encourage people to use sunscreen products more frequently and correctly.
Altruist was developed by the renowned British dermatologist and surgeon Dr. Andrew Birnie and the Dutch economist David Westerbeek van Eerten. The brand was born from a shared passion to prevent people from contracting skin cancer. They designed products in their spare time and used their own experience and connections, achieving very low development costs; these savings have been passed on to the end customer in their very low prices.

Dermatologist Sunscreen SPF50
WHY IS IT A UNIQUE PRODUCT?
Light lotion-textured sunscreen that leaves no white or heavy residue on the skin. It offers exceptionally high, long-lasting, and broad-spectrum protection. The formula’s effectiveness against UVA rays is particularly outstanding, as it far exceeds European standards (when the UVA symbol is surrounded by a circle, it means it protects 1/3 of the SPF value against UVA rays. The SPF value, for example SPF 30, SPF 50, only relates to protection against UVB rays). Our products provide much greater broad-spectrum protection against UVA rays, achieving the following values: Boots Star Rating of 5 stars, PPD 54.
It contains a total of eight common and next-generation sunscreens, including Tinosorb A2B, currently known as one of the most innovative and effective filters on the market, providing outstanding protection in the UV range where most other filters have weaknesses. It contains multiple filters that stabilize each other and provide effective and uniform protection across the entire UV spectrum.
Its light cream texture absorbs quickly, does not leave a greasy or heavy feeling, but moisturizes well (thanks to glycerin, for example), leaving the skin silky and velvety.
Provides a satin finish (slightly more luminous than SPF 30), non-sticky formula, easy to apply.
Durable and water-resistant formula, also suitable for use before outdoor sports.
WHO IS THIS PRODUCT FOR?
For those looking for a sunscreen with a good quality-price ratio, that is long-lasting and comfortable for daily use. For people struggling with hyperpigmentation spots and skin aging. Also for those seeking a sunscreen with high protection against UVA and UVB rays.
