A daily shield with a perfected finish. Helios Defence is a tinted DD cream with SPF50 broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection, created to defend skin from the visible signs of photoaging while respecting its natural balance. The airy texture melts in seamlessly, delivering moderate, buildable coverage that evens tone, softens the look of imperfections, and leaves a non-greasy, velvety matte finish. Powered by an advanced prebiotic complex supported by plant stem cell technology (pomegranate phytolipids and cotton cytoplasm), it helps support the skin’s microbiome and comfort, so skin feels more resilient and looks smoother, firmer, and more luminous—day after day.

Suitable for all skin types.
Ideal for sensitive skin.

Dermatologically Tested.

Pomegranate and Cotton

At the heart of Helios Defence lies a dual plant stem cell technology drawn from two botanicals with deep Mediterranean roots — pomegranate and cotton. Their living cell cultures are cultivated in bioreactor conditions and lysed to release potent polyphenolics and membrane lipids that skin immediately recognises. Pomegranate counters the oxidative damage of daily UV exposure; cotton mirrors and reinforces the skin's own barrier architecture; and a naturally derived prebiotic complex nourishes the microbiome that holds it all in balance. Science and landscape, inseparable.

Hero Ingredients

Niacinamide
A multi-tasking skin-evening active that visibly reduces the appearance of discolouration, refines skin texture, and supports the barrier — amplifying the protective and luminosity benefits of the formula.

Squalane
A lightweight, skin-identical emollient derived from plant sources that delivers deep comfort and suppleness without heaviness or occlusion — ideal for all-day wear under the Mediterranean sun.

Sodium Hyaluronate
The low-molecular form of hyaluronic acid, able to penetrate beyond the surface to draw and bind moisture where skin needs it most, keeping skin plump and comfortable beneath the protective finish.

Grape Seed Extract (Vitis Vinifera)
Rich in oligomeric proanthocyanidins, one of nature's most concentrated antioxidant sources, contributing additional photoprotective and skin-smoothing support with a distinctly Mediterranean provenance.

Under My Skin

What makes Helios Defence different from a regular tinted sunscreen or BB cream?

Helios Defence goes beyond sun protection. As a DD cream — Daily Defence — it combines SPF50 broad-spectrum UVA/UVB coverage with an advanced prebiotic complex and plant stem cell technology (pomegranate phytolipids and cotton cytoplasm) that actively supports your skin's microbiome. While a standard tinted SPF shields the surface, Helios Defence works with your skin's natural biology to build resilience over time, so skin doesn't just look protected, it genuinely becomes healthier-looking, smoother, and more luminous with daily use.

Will Helios Defence feel heavy or leave a white cast on my skin?

Not at all. The formula is designed with an airy, skin-melting texture that absorbs seamlessly without greasiness or residue. It delivers moderate, buildable coverage that evens tone and softens the appearance of imperfections, finishing in a velvety matte — never cakey, never chalky. It's suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and wears comfortably throughout the day.

Can I wear Helios Defence as my only morning product?

Yes — and that's exactly the intention behind it. Helios Defence is formulated to function as your daily shield: sun protection, coverage, and skin-comfort support in a single step. Apply it as the last step in your morning routine, after any serum or moisturiser if needed, and you're ready to face the day. For those who prefer a lighter routine or travel-friendly simplicity, it performs beautifully on its own.
