Amazing SPF 50
I have a really delicate skin and I always put a SPF 50 factor on, and this new product from ESPA is absolutely fantastic. The texture is light, doesn’t leave a greasy feeling on the skin, smell lovely, and it doesn’t affect the make up that I put on top after. I highly recommend it, it will be part of my daily routine moving forward all year around!!

Lovely, fresh and light cream
I was delighted to find that Espa were making a product that would moisturise and brighten but also have a high SPF. This cream is very light and is absorbed very quickly, perfect for everyday use. It smells delicious too. Make up still brushed on easily as skin was silky, smooth and not greasy. I have given this a 4 star rather than a five, as my only problem was that when the weather was hot enough to perspire, then it stung my eyes.

SPF convert
I found the light-weight formula really absorbed well and didn't leave me shiny. I have combination skin, despite being in my 60s, and hate my face feeling greasy. This product has been great and I'm using it daily. I just wish the sun would come out!

Love it!
This is a factor 50 cream with a difference - it is the consistency of a light face cream and does not turn your face white when you put it on. Easy to put on over your moisturise. It glides on and feels great. I have worn on warm sunny days when I am outside a lot and I have not burnt at all. So it feels great and it is very effective sun screen.

Lightweight SPF
I've been using the protect and brighten SPF for a few weeks now and have noticed a difference in my skins appearance. It looks brighter and my skin tone appears more even. It's great as a primer and knowing it's protecting my skin is a bonus. It's very lightweight and absorbs well. It also smells amazing like all the other ESPA products!

Perfect SPF and Brightens
This product is amazing, you can use under make up and skin is definitely brighter, plus knowing the high SPF is fabulous. You only need a small amount as it goes a long way. Will look at purchasing again in future and highly recommend.

Beautiful SPF
This SPF has a beautiful texture and glides on my face like a dream. The scent is a little strong but still very nice. Sinks into the skin quickly, doesn't leave a white cast and is a nice base for make up. I have oily skin and this has not caused any issues.
