Kizo Lab UV Defense Clear Sunscreen SPF 50+ is a lightweight gel sunscreen built for people who want serious broad-spectrum protection without the heavy, greasy feel of traditional formulas. This fast-absorbing gel melts into skin with a clear, weightless finish, making it ideal for daily wear under makeup or on its own. A blend of peptides, vitamin C, and adaptogenic mushroom extracts elevates this beyond basic sun protection, delivering antioxidant defense and visible skin-firming benefits with every application.
Key Benefits
Broad-Spectrum SPF 50+ Protection Four chemical UV filters, including avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate, and octocrylene, work together to shield skin from both UVA and UVB damage that leads to premature aging and dark spots.
Peptide-Powered Firming Palmitoyl tripeptide-1, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, and acetyl hexapeptide-1 support collagen production and help improve the look of fine lines over time, so your sunscreen pulls double duty.
Antioxidant Defense Against Environmental Damage Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, a stable, oil-soluble form of vitamin C, pairs with tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E) to neutralize free radicals generated by UV exposure and pollution before they can accelerate visible aging.
Adaptogenic Mushroom Complex Extracts of reishi (ganoderma lucidum), maitake (grifola frondosa), cordyceps sinensis, and shaggy mane (coprinus comatus) provide additional antioxidant support and help calm skin exposed to environmental stressors.
Weightless, No-White-Cast Finish Polyglutamic acid and glycerin keep skin hydrated without stickiness, while the clear gel texture absorbs completely, leaving zero white cast on any skin tone.
98% said their skin felt smoother and more hydrated after 1 just one use
94% agreed that the sunscreen absorbed quickly upon application
90% agreed that the sunscreen felt lighter and less noticeable on skin compared to other conventional sunscreen products
*In a study involving 47 participants
If you've been avoiding sunscreen because you hate the heavy, greasy, or chalky feel of most formulas, this gel texture will change your daily routine for the better. It's especially well-suited for oily and combination skin types that need hydration without added shine.
Deep and dark skin tones will appreciate the truly sheer, no-white-cast finish. If you're already using actives like retinol, AHAs, or vitamin C in your routine, daily SPF 50+ protection is non-negotiable, and this formula layers seamlessly over treatment products.
Anyone looking for an anti-aging sunscreen that delivers peptides, antioxidants, and broad-spectrum UV defense in a single step will find this is exactly what their morning routine has been missing.
This gel formula doubles as an excellent makeup primer. Its silicone-based texture creates a smooth, blurred canvas that helps foundation glide on evenly and last longer, so you get UV protection and a flawless base in one step.
Apply: Smooth a generous amount over face, neck, and any exposed skin as the last step in your morning skincare routine, after cleansing, toning, and moisturizing.
Technique: Use about a nickel-sized amount for the face and blend evenly. Allow 15 minutes before sun exposure for full protection.
Frequency: Reapply every 2 hours during prolonged sun exposure, and immediately after sweating or towel-drying. This sunscreen is not waterproof.
Key Ingredients

Acetyl Hexapeptide-1: UV-fighting peptide provides antioxidant support and promotes a more even skin tone.
Haritaki Fruit: Acts as a natural toner to flush out toxins, calm inflammation, and protect against oxidative damage.
Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7: A soothing peptide that helps reduce inflammation and supports the breakdown of blood-derived pigments under the eyes, visibly diminishing dark circles and promoting a brighter, more even-toned appearance.
Vitamin C (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate): A deeply penetrating, oil-soluble form of Vitamin C that brightens dark spots, evens skin tone, and boosts collagen production without the irritation or instability of traditional Vitamin C.
Mushroom Extract: Rich in fatty acids, improves the ability of the skin to retain moisture and maintain a healthy skin barrier, while boosting collagen and calming inflammation.

Is Kizo Lab UV Defense Clear Sunscreen SPF 50+ a chemical or mineral sunscreen?

This is a chemical sunscreen. It uses four UV-filtering actives: avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate, and octocrylene. These chemical filters absorb UV rays and convert them to heat, which is why the formula can maintain its clear, lightweight gel texture with no white cast.

Will Kizo Lab UV Defense Clear Sunscreen SPF 50+ leave a white cast on dark skin tones?

No. Because this is a chemical sunscreen in a clear gel base, it absorbs completely without leaving any visible residue. It's an excellent daily SPF option for deep and dark skin tones where white cast from mineral sunscreens can be a dealbreaker.

What type of vitamin C is in Kizo Lab UV Defense Clear Sunscreen SPF 50+?

The formula contains tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, a stable, oil-soluble form of vitamin C. This derivative penetrates the lipid layer of the skin effectively and is less likely to cause irritation than L-ascorbic acid, making it well-suited for a product you wear daily in the sun.

Can I use Kizo Lab UV Defense Clear Sunscreen SPF 50+ under makeup?

Absolutely. The lightweight gel texture absorbs quickly and creates a smooth, non-greasy base that works beautifully as a primer. Foundation and concealer layer over it without pilling or sliding.

What do the mushroom extracts in Kizo Lab UV Defense Clear Sunscreen SPF 50+ do for skin?

The formula includes reishi, maitake, cordyceps, and shaggy mane mushroom extracts. These adaptogenic mushrooms are rich in polysaccharides and antioxidants that help protect skin from environmental stress and support a calm, balanced complexion throughout the day.

Is Kizo Lab UV Defense Clear Sunscreen SPF 50+ waterproof?

No, this sunscreen is not waterproof. You should reapply every 2 hours during sun exposure and immediately after sweating, swimming, or towel-drying to maintain full broad-spectrum protection.

Can I use Kizo Lab UV Defense Clear Sunscreen SPF 50+ if I have oily skin?

Yes. The gel formula is specifically well-suited for oily and combination skin. It absorbs quickly and dries down to a lightweight, non-greasy finish without adding shine. Polyglutamic acid provides hydration without heaviness, so skin stays comfortable all day.
