At The Vintage Avenue Skin Clinic, we believe the best skincare is preventative, and protecting your skin from UV damage is one of the most effective ways to maintain its beauty and health. ![Woman with flawless skin protected by DIBI Milano Solarium sunscreen, featured by The Vintage Avenue Skin Clinic.](https://webfront.frively.com/api/media/file/dibi-milano-sunscreen-vintage-avenue.webp) That’s why we recommend **DIBI Milano Solarium Sunscreen**—a high-performance formula that blends cutting-edge science with skin-loving ingredients. ### Foundation with SPF Isn’t Enough Let’s clear up a common misconception: makeup with added SPF doesn’t offer sufficient protection unless it’s applied very generously. In reality, you'd need nearly a teaspoon of foundation for your face alone to achieve the SPF level listed on the label—which isn’t practical for everyday wear. To keep your skin properly shielded, a separate, dedicated sunscreen is key. ### Introducing DIBI Milano Solarium Sunscreen The **DIBI Milano Solarium range** is specially designed with dermo-cosmetic expertise to do more than protect. It also nourishes and supports your skin's barrier with added anti-ageing and antioxidant benefits. Key features include: - Broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection - Lightweight, non-greasy formulation - Antioxidant-rich and anti-ageing actives - Non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores) - Spray formula that can be reapplied over makeup Available in both **SPF 30** and **SPF 50**, the Solarium range is ideal for daily use—whether you're working, travelling, or enjoying time outdoors. ### Understanding SPF: What the Numbers Really Mean - SPF 15 filters out approximately 93% of UVB rays - SPF 30 filters about 97% - SPF 50 offers close to 98% And here’s a tip: if you’ve been outside for two hours or more, it's time to reapply. **DIBI Milano’s spray formulation** allows you to top up effortlessly—even over your makeup—without smudging or caking. ### Why Consistent SPF Use Pays Off Using sunscreen every day goes far beyond avoiding sunburn. It also helps protect your skin from: - Premature ageing, including fine lines and wrinkles - Uneven skin tone and dark spots - Collagen breakdown and reduced firmness - Increased risk of skin cancer Finishing your morning routine with sunscreen is one of the most powerful long-term skincare habits you can develop. ### Need Help Choosing Your SPF?
