For Australian use, follow the directions and water-resistance period printed on the locally supplied product label. Reapply after swimming, sweating or towel drying and at least every two hours during continued outdoor exposure.

Do not rely on sunscreen alone. Combine it with protective clothing, a broad-brimmed hat, sunglasses and shade.

Suggested Routine

AM: Cleanser → Conditioning Prep Solution → Serum → Moisturiser if required → Prime & Defend SPF 30

Zinc Oxide

A physical UV filter that helps provide broad-spectrum protection across UVA and UVB wavelengths.

Titanium Dioxide

A mineral UV filter that contributes primarily to UVB and short-wave UVA protection.

Iron Oxides

Provide the formula’s light tint and may offer complementary protection against visible light.

Melanin

A pigment included for complementary cosmetic and environmental protection.

Green Tea Extract

Provides antioxidant support against free radicals generated by environmental exposure.

Silicone Elastomers

Create the smooth, breathable primer texture and help visually soften the appearance of uneven skin texture.

The official Société page identifies Prime & Defend as a broad-spectrum physical SPF 30, but it does not provide a published product-specific clinical trial, measured protection data beyond SPF 30 or a water-resistance duration.

Before publishing or supplying it as sunscreen in Australia, confirm that the exact local product, SPF claim, water-resistance claim, directions and packaging comply with Australian requirements. The official US page lists the retail size as 1.7 oz, while your store card lists 57g, so the Australian package size should also be checked before publishing.

Cancer Council Australia recommends a broad-spectrum, water-resistant SPF50 or SPF50+ sunscreen when the UV Index is 3 or above, applied generously and reapplied every two hours. Prime & Defend SPF 30 may still be merchandised according to its approved local label, but it should not be described as equivalent to SPF50+.
