Sun Care: the Most Effective Anti-Ageing Ritual
No serum and no cream can make up for what unprotected hours in the sun take from the skin. Dermatologists emphasise it time and again: sun protection is among the most important measures against premature skin ageing – according to studies, a large share of the visible signs of ageing on the face, from fine lines to pigmentation spots, can be traced back to UV radiation. Protecting your skin every day therefore preserves not only its health but, above all, its youthfulness. MBR sun care combines reliable protection with the culture of care that MBR stands for.
How the sun ages the skin
UV-B rays act on the surface: they cause sunburn, dry out the skin and deepen fine lines. UV-A rays penetrate into the deeper layers of the dermis, where collagen and elastin give the skin its firmness. There, they make the skin lose its elasticity and are largely responsible for light-induced skin ageing – often unnoticed, as UV-A radiation also passes through clouds and window glass. That is why high-quality sun protection belongs not only in your holiday suitcase but in every daily skincare ritual.
medical SUN care: protection, care and regeneration in one
The medical SUN care line is based on the MBR SUN GUIDE SYSTEM, a threefold concept: particularly photostable broad-spectrum filters such as Tinosorb S and Tinosorb M protect against UV-A and UV-B radiation, a care and repair complex with aloe vera, jojoba oil and panthenol soothes and nourishes the skin while you sunbathe, and ectoin and vitamin E strengthen its natural defences against oxidative stress. To keep the potential for irritation as low as possible, medical SUN care is completely free from fragrances.
The right protection for face, eyes, lips and body
High Protection Face Cream SPF 30 protects skin unaccustomed to the sun with a light, fast-absorbing texture that leaves a soft matte finish. For particularly sensitive skin, we recommend High Protection Cream SPF 50, which softens sun-induced lines and pigmentation spots. High Protection Eye & Lip SPF 50 cares for the delicate eye area and lips with stem cells from cranberry and orchid. For the body, the velvety High Protection Body Lotion SPF 30 offers reliable protection without feeling greasy or sticky.
After the sun: regeneration for a lasting glow
Sun, water and wind draw moisture from the skin. The cooling gel After SUN Face and the nourishing lotion After SUN Body replenish lost moisture, soothe the skin and help preserve your tan for longer. As an intensive indulgence after a day by the sea, the After Sun Liquid Mask and After Sun Cream Mask bring calm and suppleness to sun-stressed skin.
How to protect your skin properly
Apply your sun protection generously to cleansed skin around 20 to 30 minutes before going out in the sun – using too little means you will not reach the stated sun protection factor. Reapply roughly every two hours and after swimming or sweating. Within the MBR care principle, sun protection takes on the Close phase: on sunny days, apply it after cleansing and your serum as the finishing touch to your ritual.

If you use vitamin A care, daily sun protection is especially important – learn more under vitamin A care.
