Clear Urban Defence Face Fluid SPF 50+

Yes. Sun exposure can worsen acne scarring, trigger inflammation and accelerate skin ageing, making daily SPF essential for all skin types including oily and acne-prone. The Urban Defence Face Fluid SPF 50+ is oil-free and specifically formulated to protect without adding shine or clogging pores, so there’s no reason to skip it.

It provides very high, broad spectrum SPF 50+ sun protection while doubling as a lightweight daily moisturiser. Formulated with Aloe to cool and hydrate, it defends skin against sun damage and dehydration while controlling excess shine. Oil-free and fast absorbing, it leaves skin feeling nourished and shine-free rather than greasy or heavy.

No. The Urban Defence Face Fluid is oil-free and specifically designed to leave a shine-free finish. Unlike some SPF formulas, it is lightweight and fast absorbing, making it suitable for oily skin without the heavy or chalky residue that some sunscreens leave behind.

Yes. The lightweight, non-greasy formula sits comfortably under makeup. Apply generously and evenly to clean, dry skin at least 20 minutes before sun exposure, allow it to absorb, then apply makeup as usual. It works as a smooth, protective base that won’t interfere with foundation or tinted products.

Re-apply at least every 2 hours, and always after swimming or sweating for all SPF products and is important for maintaining effective sun protection throughout the day.

The Urban Defence Face Fluid SPF 50+ is the final step in your morning Natio Clear routine, applied after cleansing, toning and moisturising. It is a daytime-only product. At night, replace it with the Quick Fix Spot Treatment or Pimple Patch Kit as needed. Do not use SPF as a substitute for your moisturiser as it is formulated specifically as a protective layer.

This is a chemical sunscreen. The active ingredients are Octocrylene, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone), Ethylhexyl Triazone and Bemotrizinol, which work by absorbing UV rays and converting them to heat. Chemical sunscreens tend to be lighter in texture and less likely to leave a white cast than mineral alternatives, making them well suited to oily and acne-prone skin worn daily under makeup.

Yes. The formula is oil-free, lightweight and designed with oily and acne-prone skin in mind. As with any new product, patch test on a small area before applying to your full face, particularly if your skin is currently experiencing a flare-up or active breakouts. If irritation develops, discontinue use.

The Urban Defence Face Fluid is formulated for oily and acne-prone skin rather than sensitive or reactive skin. As a chemical sunscreen, it may not suit those with very reactive skin or known sensitivities to UV filters. If your skin is sensitive, we recommend patch testing before use and consulting your healthcare professional if you have any concerns.
