Beauty junkies, if you’re looking for a transparent and breathable sunscreen that isn't heavy and sticky – The Ordinaryhas answered your prayers.
Known for straightforward, science-driven beauty essentials that don’t break the bank, The Ordinary — part of the DECIEMfamily — has just dropped its latest innovation: the UV Filters SPF 45 Serum.
With the silky, lightweight feel of a serum, this sunscreen layers effortlessly under makeup or shines solo for a natural, glowing finish. Best of all? It’s completely free of that dreaded white cast, which means no chalky residue left behind — a major win for all skin tones.
Boasting broad-spectrum SPF 45, this formula shields your skin from harmful UV rays and helps fight early signs of aging caused by sun exposure.
Unlike its predecessor – the Mineral UV Filters SPF 30 with Antioxidants – this version swaps out mineral filters for a blend of FDA-approved chemical filters.
If you’re curious about the switch, chemical sunscreens provide a more transparent, feather-light finish, which is difficult to achieve with mineral ingredients, especially at higher SPF levels.
Perfect for every skin type — even the most sensitive — the UV Filters SPF 45 Serum hydrates instantly, won’t clog pores, and gives your skin a subtle boost of radiance. Plus, at just HK$164, it’s an affordable addition to your daily routine.
To celebrate the launch of the SPF 45 Serum, The Ordinary will also be holding special pop-up sunscreen keychain workshops across the city in partnership with Re-Edit Lab, a women-founded architecture firm in Hong Kong. Customers who make a purchase of HKD350 or above with SPF can take part! Workshop details:
- 11am-9:30pm, 17-18 June, 2025, at The Ordinary's Times Square store
- 10:30am-10pm, 19-20 June, 2025, at Beauty Avenue at Bank Centre
