Tis the season for SPF! You should be wearing it all year round, every single day but as the weather starts warming up, you’ll be outside a lot more so be sure to amp up your sunscreen routine!
Let me introduce you today to my latest SPF find – Neocutis Journee Bio-Restorative Day Cream SPF 30. It’s a protective anti-aging day cream that helps to smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while providing much-needed hydration combined with broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection.

What I like :
– Provides full spectrum UVA/UVB protection with a combination of physical (zinc oxide) and chemical sunscreens.
– Enhanced with multiple antioxidants like green tea extract and stabilized vitamins C and E to neutralize free radicals.
– Lightweight, super fast absorbing and non-greasy formula with a smooth, satin matte finish
– Sheer, natural tint blends beautifully to even out the skin so there is absolutely NO white cast or residue
– Delivers oil-free hydration without a heavy, tacky feel on the skin
– Wears beautifully under makeup
– Fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, gentle enough for all skin types
– Suitable for use around the sensitive eye area (doesn’t sting or irritate)
– Doesn’t make my skin break out
– Convenient packaging in an opaque bottle (which prevents the active ingredients from deteriorating) with a pump dispenser
What I don’t like :
– Pricey ($130 for 1oz)
Bottom Line
Although Neocutis JOURNÉE Bio-restorative Day Cream SPF 30 ticks all the right boxes for me in terms of formula (I really couldn’t find any fault with it, seriously!) but I think it’s way too expensive for a daily SPF product.
