Why SPF is the Most Important Step in Your Skincare Routine

At Avant, we're passionate about helping you protect and nourish your skin — not just today, but for years to come. While a great cleanser, hydrating serums, and nourishing moisturisers are essential, there's one step in your skincare routine that should never be skipped: SPF. 

Why SPF Matters — Every Day, All Year

Many people think of SPF as a summer essential, only needed on sunny beach days. But the truth is, UV radiation is present year-round, even on cloudy days or during winter. Daily sun exposure — even in small amounts — contributes to:

• Premature ageing (fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation)
• Loss of skin elasticity and radiance
• Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone
• Increased risk of skin cancer

That’s why we believe SPF is your skin’s best defence. And the best part? Today’s formulations go far beyond the greasy, chalky sunscreens of the past — they’re luxurious, lightweight, and full of skin-loving ingredients.

Avant’s SPF Heroes: Protection Meets Skincare

Here are our favourite SPF-infused products that deliver both protection and performance:

Multi-Defense Ceramides Protecting Veil Broad-Spectrum SPF 50

For those seeking maximum protection without heaviness, this ultra-light SPF 50 veil delivers broad-spectrum defence against harmful rays while strengthening the skin’s barrier with restorative ceramides. The advanced formula melts into the skin, leaving no white cast or residue — just a smooth, breathable finish. Whether used as the final step in your skincare routine or under makeup, it provides invisible yet powerful protection with a luxurious feel.

Ceramides Soothing & Protective Day Cream SPF 20

Designed with sensitive and dry skin in mind, this soothing day cream combines the power of ceramides with gentle sun protection. With SPF 20, it shields against everyday UV exposure while restoring the skin’s natural barrier and locking in long-lasting moisture. The comforting formula helps calm irritation and leaves skin feeling soft, supple, and well-protected throughout the day — all without compromising on comfort or finish.

Supercharged Cocoa Rejuvenating Multitasker Serum SPF 30 Broad Spectrum

This multitasking serum delivers daily sun protection with a sustainable twist. Featuring antioxidant-rich cocoa extract derived through an upcycling process, it helps defend the skin against environmental stressors while reducing ingredient waste. The broad-spectrum SPF 30 shields against UVA and UVB rays, while the tinted, adaptable formula suits all skin tones without leaving a white cast. Lightweight and breathable, it layers seamlessly under moisturiser or makeup. With added peptides and skin-nourishing actives, it smooths, energises, and enhances your natural glow — all in one simple step.
