1. Sunscreen Isn’t Just Sunscreen — It’s Science
Most people think sunscreen is just about SPF numbers—but that’s only part of the story.
What really matters is how your sunscreen protects you, how it feels on your skin, and how well it performs in real Pakistani conditions like humidity, sweat, and pollution.
That’s exactly why ELIXIR created Shade by ELIXIR, Pakistan’s first true hybrid sunscreen—designed with both chemical and mineral filters to give your skin balanced, long-lasting protection and comfort.
2. What Exactly Is a Hybrid Sunscreen?
There are three main types of sunscreens:
| Type | How It Works | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chemical Sunscreens | Absorb UV rays and convert them to heat | Lightweight texture, invisible finish | May irritate sensitive skin |
| Mineral Sunscreens | Reflect UV rays using Zinc Oxide or Titanium Dioxide | Great for sensitive skin, immediate protection | Can leave a white cast |
| Hybrid Sunscreens | Combine both for balanced performance | Broad protection, elegant texture, less irritation | Best of both worlds |

3. Why Hybrid Is the Future — Especially for Pakistani Skin
Pakistan’s hot, humid, and dusty weather means we need lightweight, breathable protection that doesn’t clog pores or melt away.
Imported sunscreens often fail here—they’re made for temperate, low-humidity regions.
✅ Research insight:
Shade by ELIXIR solves this with a hybrid formula that:
💧 Feels light, never greasy
☀️ Stays put through sweat and heat
💨 Resists humidity while keeping pores clear
💎 Blends seamlessly on all South Asian skin tones
4. SPF 50+ That Actually Delivers
Many SPFs claim “high protection,” but not all maintain it under intense UV or sweat exposure.
✅ Research supporting SPF efficacy:
Shade by ELIXIR’s broad spectrum SPF 50+ was tested to ensure stability and coverage against both UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays—ideal for Pakistan’s UV index of 10+ in summer months.
5. Formulated for Sensitive & Acne-Prone Skin
South Asian skin often tends to be combination or oily, which makes finding a comfortable SPF difficult.
That’s why Shade by ELIXIR is:
-
Non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores)
-
Fragrance-free and paraben-free
-
Dermatologist tested
-
Halal certified
✅ Supporting studies:
And when paired with The Niacinamide by ELIXIR, it becomes the perfect duo—balancing oil control, brightening skin tone, and protecting your barrier simultaneously.
