Daily sun protection is the single most evidence-based anti-ageing intervention available. But for oily and combination skin, finding an SPF that doesn't feel heavy, cause breakouts, or leave a greasy finish is a genuine challenge.
Heliocare Gel Oil-Free SPF 50 is specifically formulated for oily and combination skin — delivering broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection with a sebo-regulating, matte finish that controls shine throughout the day, without blocking pores or triggering breakouts.
Fernblock®+ (Polypodium leucotomos extract) — Heliocare's patented antioxidant complex, clinically studied for over 30 years. Proven to neutralise UV-induced free radicals, reduce DNA damage, and support the skin's natural repair mechanisms beyond what UV filters alone can achieve.
Advanced broad spectrum UV filters — provide SPF 50 protection against UVB and UVA radiation.
Sebo-regulating agents — absorb excess sebum and control shine throughout the day without drying the skin.

Heliocare is dermatologically tested and widely used in clinical settings. 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.
