Sunscreens are no longer just about shielding skin from UV rays. They are multitasking formulas with serious skincare benefits built-in too. From antioxidant-rich botanical formulas to advanced anti-ageing complexes, here are four new SPF50/PA++++ skin-loving sunscreens that go beyond the basics.
01 - Anessa x Pokemon Perfect UV Sunscreen Skincare Milk, SGD47 for 60 ML
The Anessa x Pokemon collaboration returns after four years. This time, it splashes the cult-favourite sunscreen in playful limited-edition packaging featuring Pikachu, Piplup and Sprigatito. The cheery designs make ideal companions for all your sun-filled adventures.
Fans love the J-beauty icon for its ultra-lightweight yet powerful UV protection. Thanks to its Auto-Veil and Auto-Booster Technology, the formula stands up to sweat, heat, water and friction for comfortable all-day wear. More than just suncare, it also delivers long-lasting hydration and a built-in primer effect. ANESSA
02 - Augustinus Bader The Sunscreen, SGD205 for 30 ML
Suncare meets skincare in this highly anticipated launch that not only shields the skin from UV rays. Powered by the brand’s proprietary TFC8 technology and clean UV filters, the formula also works to combat their long-term effects.
Enriched with a potent blend of antioxidant-rich botanicals, the multitasking sunscreen also supports optimal skin renewal. Containing micro-algae extracts, cotton seed extract, as well as a pomegranate flower, perilla leaf and Kakadu plum complex, it moisturises and strengthens skin barrier for healthier and more resilient skin over time.

Shiseido elevates its suncare favourites, including this lightweight lotion, with the introduction of its SynchroShieldRepair technology. This cutting-edge innovation strengthens UV protection when exposed to heat, sweat and water. Designed to adapt to your environment, the clever formula also self-repairs throughout the day.
Besides resulting in even and consistent coverage that lasts, it is also infused with skincare benefits for a healthy glow. The upgraded formula features an algae complex for lasting hydration, while glycyrrhizic acid derivatives soothe irritated skin. SHISEIDO

The formula now features the G+ Complex, a potent blend of naturally derived actives that target visible signs of ageing, including wrinkles, dark spots and loss of firmness. In addition, botanical hydroxytyrosol and Edelweiss extract offer antioxidant defence, while Vitamin B3 works to prevent uneven pigmentation. SISLEY
