Protection, but also skincare.

The Sun Shield is a lightweight, fluid, transparent SPF 30 that goes beyond sun protection. More than just sunscreen, it's a daily skin defender.

Its advanced formula combines high-percentage zinc oxide with Tinosorb S and M, delivering reliable, broad-spectrum coverage against UVA, UVB, and visible light damage.

But we didn’t stop at protection. The Sun Shield is also skincare. Infused with Ectoin, probiotics, and allantoin, it calms, hydrates, and strengthens the skin barrier. Meanwhile, CoQ10 and Astaxanthin, two of the most potent antioxidants, neutralize free radicals and target hyperpigmentation, supporting luminous, even-toned, and youthful skin.

The Sun Shield is your daily city defence, not just a sunscreen, but skincare in disguise.

Formulated for all skin types, including sensitive and melanin-rich skin, it blends seamlessly without white cast or greasiness, leaving only a silky, radiant finish you’ll want to wear every day.

What’s the difference between SPF 30, 50, and 100?

It’s a lot more micro than most people think. SPF 30 blocks about 97% of UVB rays, SPF 50 about 98%, and SPF 100 about 99%. The key isn’t chasing numbers, it’s applying the right amount and reapplying regularly. That’s why we created Sun Shield with a texture so light and wearable you’ll actually enjoy reapplying it.

Will it leave a white cast?

No. Sun Shield was made for every skin tone. Its coated zinc oxide in jojoba esters works seamlessly with Tinosorb S & M to deliver high protection that disappears on application, leaving only a soft, silky finish with no white cast.

Can I use it instead of my moisturiser?

Yes. The chassis of every SPF is essentially a moisturizer, the difference is that Sun Shield goes beyond the basics. It’s enriched with barrier-repairing actives, probiotics, and hydrating mushrooms, so it truly doubles as daily skincare. If your skin needs it, you can layer it over your favourite moisturiser, but for some skin types it’s enough on its own.

Why is it only available in Europe?

Because Sun Shield uses the most advanced UV filters available, approved in Europe but not yet in the US. We believe your skin deserves the best science and innovation has to offer. We're working hard on bringing it to Australia soon.

Why do I need SPF if I live in the city and not at the beach?

UV rays penetrate glass and clouds, and pollution accelerates skin aging. Sun Shield was made for everyday city living, lightweight enough for daily wear, yet powerful enough to defend against all urban stressors.

Is the packaging sustainable?

Yes. It’s made from renewable sugarcane bioplastic and fully recyclable, reflecting our commitment to high performance and low impact.

What’s the texture like? (matte, dewy, velvety?)

Think silky, featherlight, and fluid, closer to a serum than a traditional sunscreen. It glides on effortlessly, absorbs in seconds, and leaves a transparent, silky finish with zero white cast. No greasiness, no heaviness, no pilling,just hydrated, radiant skin that feels like you’re wearing nothing at all.

How often should I reapply?

Every 2 hours, especially if you’re outdoors, and after sweating or swimming. In the city, one generous morning application often covers your commute, but reapplying keeps protection at its best.

Is it vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes, always. Like all of Herbar products, Sun Shield is 100% vegan and never tested on animals.

Can I use it under and over makeup?

Absolutely. Its silky, fluid texture doubles as the perfect primer, no pilling, no greasiness, just a velvety base for makeup. Once its quite serum-like it applies very well over makeup.

Does it contain fragrance or essential oils?

No. Sun Shield is completely fragrance-free and contains no essential oils, only what your skin needs for protection and repair.

WHAT IT IS

Featherlight and invisible, this multi-tasking mineral sunscreen doubles as daily skincare. Powered by probiotics, ectoin, CoQ10, astaxanthin, and medicinal mushrooms it shields against UV, pollution, and urban stress while repairing the skin barrier. With adaptogenic mushrooms and hydrating actives, it calms, restores, and strengthens, leaving skin protected, resilient, and luminous.

HERO INGREDIENTS

WHY IT’S SPECIAL

Unlike most mineral formulas, Sun Shield contains a high percentage of zinc oxide yet leaves absolutely zero white cast. Its silky, fluid texture is weightless on the skin, something rarely seen in mineral sunscreens. Most sunscreens only defend against UV. Sun Shield is built like a full skincare treatment. Beyond advanced UV filters, it’s enriched with probiotics to rebalance your barrier, ectoin to guard against pollution and blue light, and powerful antioxidants like CoQ10 and astaxanthin to fight oxidative stress and premature aging. The Sun Shield doesn’t just shield, it actively repairs, strengthens, and transforms your skin with every use. Featherlight, transparent, and designed for daily city living, Sun Shield proves SPF can be more than protection , it can be true skincare.

WHY USE THE SUN SHIELD

Because it’s not just sunscreen, it’s skincare.

City life constantly wears down your skin barrier: pollution, stress, late nights, air-con. Sun Shield doesn’t only protect you from UV, it actively repairs and strengthens the barrier with adaptogens, mushrooms, and hydrating actives.

So while it shields against the sun, it also works as your daily moisturiser, calming, replenishing, and keeping skin resilient against everything the city throws at it.

It’s not SPF or skincare. It’s SPF as skincare.

HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM OTHER SUNSCREENS?

Most sunscreens stop at UV protection. Sun Shield was designed to go much further.

Yes, it gives you broad-spectrum mineral protection, but it’s also packed with actives you’d normally only find in advanced skincare.

Probiotics to rebalance and strengthen the skin barrier, keeping it resilient against urban stressors.
Ectoin, a molecule proven to protect cells from pollution, blue light, and dehydration, while calming sensitive skin.
Astaxanthin, one of the most powerful antioxidants known, fighting oxidative stress and premature aging far beyond what UV filters alone can do.

You get a formula that doesn’t just shield your skin, it actively helps repair, fortify, and rejuvenate it with every application. Lightweight, invisible, and designed for city living.

Sun Shield isn’t just another sunscreen. It’s sunscreen reimagined as skincare that protects and transforms at the same time.

Amazing texture

Incredibly soft texture with a beautiful, glass-like shine that I absolutely loved.
I’ve been using the full Herbar routine and my skin has never felt better calm, nourished, and radiant. There’s something truly special about the way each product layers so effortlessly, leaving a dewy, healthy glow that lasts all day <3

I honestly can’t wait to add the new sunscreen to my skincare, it’s one of those products I use every single day, and knowing Herbar, I’m sure it’ll be a game changer 😍😍

Milky, Glowy Magic

I was sent a sample of the new sunscreen and honestly, I was very excited to join in on testing but didn’t expect crazy results from the sunscreen. I am so happy to admit how very wrong I was! I struggle with rosacea and somehow, this product seemed to calm my redness while creating a gorgeous glow on my face that I’ve never achieved with just sunscreen. Think glazed, but not oily! Amazing, can’t wait to try the full size when it’s released. Thank you, Herbar!

Sample of the sunscreen

I recently got the chance to test this sunscreen, and I have to say — I’m impressed!

It’s super easy to apply, doesn’t feel sticky at all, and absorbs quickly into the skin. What I love most is how nice it feels after applying — my skin feels soft, nourished, and well cared for.

It also offers great protection against the sun, which is exactly what I need for long days outside. No white cast, no greasy finish — just smooth, hydrated skin that feels protected and pampered.

I can’t wait to add this to my daily skincare routine. A new favorite for sure! 💛

Great SPF

love the fact that the spf is transparent and gives you lil glow. i really loved it. very hydrating

Amazing SPF

This product has a beautifully light yet rich formula that absorbs instantly into the skin, leaving it feeling hydrated but not greasy. The scent is subtle and pleasant, adding to the overall experience. It gives my skin a radiant, luminous glow without any oily residue. I loved incorporating it into my morning routine after my serum and face cream—it’s the perfect finishing touch.

Mineral sunscreen

Great texture, pleasant application and absorption. As a dark-skinned skin really enjoyed the formula as it doesn't leave a white cast and this nice fluid doesn't feel like a sunscreen application on the skin.
