LISSAGE MEN PERFECT PROTECTOR<br />
UV SPF 50+<br />
Launched by Kanebo last year, Lissage Men is a prestige<br />
men’s skincare line that utilizes the brand’s two decades<br />
of collagen research and pays attention to hydration,<br />
anti-ageing, and protection. Their sunscreen comes in<br />
this simple yet sophisticated white and silver packaging,<br />
and contains extracts of aloe, prune, and tea.<br />

FOR THOSE WITH<br />
SENSITIVE SKIN<br />
NOV UV SHIELD EX SPF 50+<br />
Nov created their range of hypoallergenic<br />
cosmetics with a team of dermatologists in 1985,<br />
ensuring ingredients are kept simple and gentle<br />
for those with highly sensitive skins. Their sunscreen<br />
is made without UV absorbers; instead, it<br />
uses UV light scattering agents to reflect the rays<br />
away from your skin. Nov UV Shield Ex SPF 50+ is<br />
the brand’s bestselling sunscreen, and leaves skin<br />
feeling smooth and soft.<br />

FOR A LIGHT TOUCH<br />
SEKKISEI SUN PROTECT<br />
ESSENCE GEL N SPF 50+<br />
Winner of a Best Cosme Award in 2015,<br />
this is an exceptionally lightweight sunscreen<br />
that goes on like lotion, and gets<br />
absorbed quickly. It contains oriental<br />
herbal extracts such as coix seed, peach<br />
leaf, and angelica, and skin-brightening<br />
ingredients such as moutan bark extract.<br />
It won’t leave your skin feeling oily so<br />
it’s great as a make-up base, and it also<br />
washes off easily with face cleanser.<br />
¥2,800, sekkisei.com<br />
FOR BLEMISH-FREE SKIN<br />
SHQ-1 DAY & NIGHT STICK ESSENCE<br />
This is a brand-new product line set to be released in Japan this fall, and includes day<br />
and night treatments. The Day (SEED-D) Stick Essence is a dark spot corrector with SPF<br />
28 and vitamin C, giving you extra protection underneath your everyday sunscreen and<br />
helping to lighten blemishes. The Night (HADA PEARL gold) Spot Care Stick Essence is<br />
made with organic, natural ingredients. The star ingredient in both is prinsepia oil, which<br />
is rich in fatty acids and vitamins A,D, E and K, and has recently started getting attention<br />
amongst skincare brands for its anti-ageing properties.<br />
