Allies of Skin Supercharged SPF 50 Duo

Skincare brand Allies of Skin has released two new SPF formulas, and they could not have arrived at a better time. Both are designed for daily use, but each takes a very different approach to sun protection. Whether you are looking for a truly invisible SPF or one that gives you a slow-burn glow, this new duo has you covered.

Years in development, The One Invisible Sunscreen Gel SPF 50 is a clear, breathable gel that feels nothing like traditional sunblock. It is completely transparent and weightless, and sits comfortably under makeup without clinging to dry patches or facial hair. The formula includes a cocktail of vitamin C, green tea, red raspberry seed oil and niacinamide, helping to calm skin, refine pores and protect against environmental stress. Its Second-Skin Membrane Complex delivers high UVA/UVB protection without leaving a trace, making it ideal for all skin tones and types.

Founder Nicolas Travis described it as “sunscreen for anyone who hates sunscreen.” It also doubles as a smoothing primer and is water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, making reapplication feel far less like a chore.

Meanwhile, Sunless Tan SPF 50 offers something completely different. This hybrid product combines full-spectrum protection with a self-tanning effect that gradually builds over several hours. The result is a natural-looking tan without any exposure to harmful rays. Infused with DHA, goji berry extract, vitamin C and Centella Asiatica, the formula not only protects but actively improves skin tone and texture.

Applied as the final step in your morning routine, the colour develops within 3 to 6 hours and continues to deepen subtly. It is also water-resistant, non-comedogenic and dermatologically tested for sensitive skin.

Together, these two SPFs offer a tailored approach to protection. Use The One when you want invisible, all-day wear. Choose Sunless Tan when you want the benefits of a golden finish without a minute in the sun. Or alternate between the two, depending on your mood and skin goals.

Both are available now at alliesofskin.co.uk, priced at £43 for The One SPF 50 and £46 for Sunless Tan SPF 50.
