Sun
Rudolph Care's sun series is much more than effective sun protection; it's a safe choice when it comes to nourishing care for face and body, coral-friendliness and sensory summer feels. Discover all the sunny favorites for the entire family.
Replace your day cream with Sun Face Cream through spring & summer
Sun Face Cream is much more than a sun cream for the face. When Andrea Rudolph developed Sun Face Cream, her all-important aim was that it should be able to replace her day cream during the summer. She also wanted her face to feel a high level of effective nourishment and luxury care. That is why Sun Face Cream is the best of both worlds: active, natural ingredients that protect your skin and effective SPF from sun filters that are safe both for you and for your environment. The natural ingredients in Sun Face Cream include chamomile, which calms the skin, apple extract, which renews the skin’s cell production, and sea buckthorn oil, which increases the skin’s elasticity and protects against free radicals with its high content of antioxidants – and soothing cucumber extract, which works as a natural moisturizer on the skin.
Good reasons for using sun face cream
The sun is dangerous
When you are in the sun, you expose your skin to harmful UVA and UVB rays. Without good protection, these rays penetrate the skin and can cause long-term damage which may develop into something serious. That is why it is important to protect the delicate skin on your face with effective sun protection if the UV index is 3 or above.
Nourishing, strengthening care
If you use a premium sun cream such as Sun Face Cream, this is a good enough reason in itself. You enrich your skin with loving care and firming nourishment to keep it in top form while you are out in the sun.
The long term
Facial sun cream also helps your skin in the longer term. Especially UVA rays cause ‘photo aging’ of the skin, which means that the skin’s elastin and collagen fibers change. In other words, your skin loses its suppleness and elasticity faster if you do not protect it with a facial sun cream.
About sun protection
Hello, Sunshine
Hans Christian Andersen said it so well: “Just living is not enough… One must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower.” It is precisely our love for the sun and everything that grows freely beneath it – including you, your children and the sea you swim in – that lies at the heart of our aim to produce the best sun protection in the world for both people and the environment.
To us, sun protection is not just sun protection. Because as well as protecting your skin from the sun’s dangerous UVA and UVB rays, we believe that sun protection has to be able to give you the everyday luxury that is on offer in the rest of the Rudolph Care universe. That is why we have created a range of efficient sun protection which also provides effective care for your skin when you are out in the sun. Nourishing oils from sea buckthorn and wheatgerm and firming and calming extracts from cucumber and apple await you – whether you prefer lotion, oil, cream or cooling aftersun products.
All Rudolph Care sun products carry the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, which is your guarantee that your sun product is easily degradeable in your body as well as in the environment – and that it does not damage or negatively impact anything on its path. It goes without saying that our sun range is also coral-friendly.

Coral friendly sun protection
Not many people think about how the products we apply on a daily basis impact the seas and oceans we swim in all over the world. When you use Rudolph Care sun cream, you can be sure that we have thought about these things for you. All Rudolph Care sun protection products carry the Nordic Swan Ecolabel which ensures that your sun protection does not damage you or the environment around you – including precious coral reefs. The benzophenone-3 and ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate sun filters are suspected of being endocrine disruptors – and more recent studies show that these two sun filters change the DNA of corals and cause hormone disruptions which make young corals die. You will never see these two filters used in our products. This means that you can confidently take your Rudolph Care sun cream with you when you travel and swim in the sea without having to worry.
If you should – against the odds – run short of sun cream on your beach holiday and Rudolph Care is not within easy reach, it is important that you investigate whether benzophenone-3 and ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate appear among the ingredients of the sun product you use instead – on some products they also appear as oxybenzone and octinoxate.
Sun protection with chemical sun filters
At Rudolph Care, we have chosen to use five chemical sun filters to protect your skin in all our sun protection products. These five filters meet EU recommendations for the best UVA and UVB protection and have been approved by the Nordic Swan Ecolabel. When something has been chemically produced, it means that it can be carefully controlled. This makes it possible for us to have 100% knowledge of the content and effect of the finished product.
At Rudolph Care, we are generally of the conviction that good chemistry should be applied where it is of most benefit – and this is the case in our sun range. Chemical filters do not feel greasy or sticky and do not leave white streaks on the skin. They offer effective protection against both UVA and UVB rays by penetrating the upper layers of the skin – in contrast to physical filters that settle as a membrane on top of the skin. The chemical sun filters that protect your skin are:
Ethylhexyl triazone: chemical UVB filter.
Diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate: chemical UVA filter.
Diethylhexyl butamido triazone: chemical UVB filter.
Bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine: chemical, oil-soluble UVA filter which has a synergy effect on UVB filters and other UV filters.
Bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine: chemical, water-soluble UVA filter which has a synergy effect on UVB filters and other UV filters.
