Fernblock® is Heliocare's patented extract of the Polypodium leucotomos fern, a plant with exceptional natural UV-resistance. It has been clinically studied for over 30 years and is proven to neutralise free radicals, reduce UV-induced DNA damage, and support the skin's natural repair mechanisms — going beyond standard UV filters to actively protect skin at a cellular level.
Yes. The non-comedogenic, oil-free formula is specifically designed for oily and combination skin types. The sebo-regulating ingredients help control excess oil production, reducing the likelihood of breakouts. It does not block pores and is suitable for acne-prone skin.
No. Unlike many mineral sunscreens, Color Gel uses a combination of chemical and mineral filters in a tinted formula that blends naturally into the skin without a white cast. Available in three shades to suit a range of skin tones.
Yes. The lightweight, fast-absorbing gel formula creates an ideal base for makeup. Apply and allow to absorb fully before applying foundation or other base products.
Color Gel offers SPF 50+ protection (higher than most SPF moisturisers), protects against visible light and infrared radiation (which most standard SPFs do not), and includes Fernblock®+ for active antioxidant repair. It is a significantly more comprehensive photoprotection product than a standard SPF moisturiser.
Color Gel is dermatologically tested and suitable for sensitive skin. However, always follow your clinician's guidance on when to reintroduce SPF and active products after aesthetic treatments such as laser, peels, or microneedling.
Prolonged sun exposure increases the risk of skin cancer and premature skin ageing. Apply broad spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily to all exposed skin, limit sun exposure between 10am–2pm, and wear protective clothing and eyewear.
