Augustinus Bader Sunscreen Is Here: Everything to Know- NewBeauty
Augustinus Bader has long been a staple on celebrity vanities, with A-listers like Emily Blunt, Jennifer Aniston and Kim Kardashian swearing by its cult-classic The Cream and The Rich Cream. The brand has expanded its lineup over the years to include everything from cleansers and toners to serums and even hair care. But one category remained noticeably absent—until now. Augustinus Bader has officially entered the sunscreen game with The Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 ($140), and in true Dr. Bader fashion, it delivers more than just sun protection.
A Sunscreen That Works Harder
More than just an SPF, The Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 fuses sun protection with science-backed skin care. This broad-spectrum, non-nano mineral formula shields against both UVA and UVB rays while harnessing the brand’s proprietary TFC8 technology to support skin renewal. Designed to do more than just defend against sun damage, this sunscreen helps reduce the visible signs of aging, evens out skin tone and delivers lasting hydration—all without feeling heavy or greasy.
A Closer Look at the Ingredients
At the core of this powerhouse formula is TFC8, a proprietary complex that optimizes the skin’s environment for cellular renewal. Non-nano zinc oxide and titanium dioxide provide broad-spectrum protection by deflecting harmful UV rays, while microalgae extract works to restore and protect the skin, diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Cotton seed extract adds another layer of defense, helping to guard against photodamage and premature aging. The formula also includes a blend of antioxidant-rich botanicals—pomegranate flower, perilla leaf and kakadu plum—that combat sun-induced stress and damage. Raspberry seed oil, known for its high levels of vitamins E and A, omega-3 and omega-6, delivers additional photoprotective benefits.
What the Results Show
With an ingredient lineup like this, it’s no surprise clinical trials have shown impressive results. In a four-week clinical trial, skin redness reduced by 36 percent, skin tone evenness improved by 27 percent, and hydration levels boosted by more than double. Fine lines also saw a 14 percent reduction over a four-week period.
Augustinus Bader has once again redefined luxury skin care, this time in the form of a sunscreen that doesn’t just protect, it treats. At $140, it’s an investment for sunscreen, but for those seeking high-performance SPF with anti-aging benefits, it’s one that’s well worth it.
