Good to know

Two kinds of UV. One tube.

SPF only measures protection against UVB. That’s why you need a broad-spectrum sunscreen: one with both a high SPF (UVB) and a high PPD (UVA).

UVB

B for Burning

Causes sunburn, varies with season and location, and increases the risk of skin cancer. Expressed as SPF: SPF 50 filters 98.3% of UVB.

UVA

A for Ageing

Responsible for skin ageing and deeper skin damage. Present all year round and passes through glass. Expressed as PPD.

How to use

Apply it the way Dr Birnie advises

Aplicar generosamente cada mañana sobre la piel limpia del rostro, cuello y escote para una piel sana y reducir el envejecimiento cutáneo causado por los rayos UV. Recuerda aplicar protector solar regularmente si pasas tiempo al aire libre.

The dermatologist behind it

“Sunscreens should be easy to apply, leave no residue and feel like a moisturising cream. They also need to be affordable, so they can be applied generously.”

Altruist was founded in 2015 by dermatologist Dr Andrew Birnie and Dutch economist David Westerbeek van Eerten. They developed the products in their spare time to keep costs low, and pass that saving on in the price.

How we help

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Answered by Dr Andrew Birnie and the Altruist team.

More questions? Visit our FAQ
Won’t it make my skin shiny?

No. The oil-free formula with tapioca starch absorbs excess sebum and leaves a dry, matte finish.

Is it suitable for acne or breakouts?

Yes. The cream is non-comedogenic, oil-free and fragrance-free. For the best results, combine it with the Cleansing Foam 2% Salicylic Acid.

Can I wear it under make-up?

Yes, the matte finish makes a good base for make-up.

Is it enough for a day in the sun?

The UVA protection of this cream is PPD 20. If you are outdoors for a long time, reapply regularly or use an additional sunscreen on exposed areas.

How long does the product keep?

Once opened, the product keeps for 12 months, as shown by the symbol on the packaging. Store it in a cool place, out of direct sunlight.

Is Altruist tested on animals?

No. Animal testing for cosmetics is banned in the European Union, and our products have never been tested on animals.
