Coinciding with the launch of her new Protect SPF 50 and National Sunscreen Day, Kerry Hanaphy, with the help of Mr Ireland finalists James Hazlett and Jake Leinster, took to the streets of Dublin to test the nation’s knowledge on sun care, while debunking many myths along the way.

With mixed results, and some unusual takes, including some thinking one layer of SPF will protect you all day, to others agreeing that expired sun cream was still safe, Kerry Hanaphy and her team debunked common myths about SPF, ensuring skin was saved across the capital, with many a bottle of the new Protect SPF 50 offered to willing participates.

Protect SPF 50 is a welcome addition to Kerry Hanaphy’s growing range of clinic-quality at-home skincare products. 

Known for empowering her clients to embrace their natural beauty with a harmonious blend of self-care and professional treatments across her three Dublin clinics – South William Street, Swords and Citywest, Kerry and her team are well aware skincare doesn’t end the moment you leave the clinic, a proper at-home routine is essential for maintaining the results of your professional treatments. With this in mind, Kerry developed her own range to ensure her clients have the best active ingredients available to elongate and amplify the results of their treatments while caring for the skin 24/7.

Kerry’s latest release, Protect SPF 50 is doing just that, and perfectly timed for Summer!

Protect SPF 50 (€45, 50ml): It’s imperative our skin is protected year-round, and that even includes when we’re working from home in front of the laptop, and the latest addition to Kerry Hanaphy’s Skincare range is here to do just that. The new Protect SPF 50 is a broad-spectrum SPF that offers yearlong UV protection with a nourishing formula to suit all skin types and tones. Featuring a unique blend of skin-loving ingredients including Aloe Vera to sooth and Radish Root to reduce inflammation of the skin by decreasing swelling and redness.

Light and easily absorbed, Protect SPF 50 supports the skin while encouraging collagen renewal, promoting an even-looking appearance whilst protecting and hydrating.

Its tinted formula also means it will not leave a white cast on the skin, resulting a natural appearance within seconds of application.
